We love leaves around here! This month in school we have been doing all kinds of leaf-related projects. We went on a nature walk and collected lots of pretty leaves, laminated them, and hung them up as a garland on the fireplace.

We also made a Fall Leaf Tree out of a paper towel roll and some foam pre-cut leaves. We got our inspiration from
this post. Emily loved gluing the leaves on! The tree now sits on our table as a centerpiece.

Ta-da!
We have done lots of worksheets and coloring pages about leaves, too. Emily is finally enjoying coloring! I think before she was just too busy to want to sit still for very long. Now she'll sometimes color for a half hour (if I'm lucky). Next up is pumpkins! Have I told you before that I love fall?? :)
