Leaf Art and Science

momstown Central Alberta hosts a program each month called Little Scientist.
With the onset of Fall, we decided to explore leaves!

Unfortunaltey it was raining, so our planned leaf hunt had to be postponed, but luckily we still had a stash!

The first thing we did was look at all the leaves that were brought and sicussed how they felt, their colros and which ones we liked the best.

Then we put the leaves under some paper and rubbed a crayon over top to see what happens!
In case you were wondering, leaf rubbings doesnt get old! All the moms had to try it again just like they did when they were kids.

Then the kids choses their favourite leaves and we glued them to paper.
My daughters though tthis was THE BEST CRAFT EVER ha ha and did about 7 pages in total!!

We have quite the collection on our fridge now.  The girls are Still collecting more leaves to create MORE leaf art!

Join us next month when our Little Scientists get messy with some Halloween Science!!
