Every fall, during the week of school conferences (early dismissal) we go on a leaf finding adventure. We drive around town and find the most beautiful, bright, colorful, leaves. We climb the trees if we have to. I don't have a photo, but this year I had to get a camping chair from the back of the van, be supported by the kids as it teetered over the curb and I stood on it's arm rest to get some of the most beautiful and vibrant leaves in town!! :)
We RUN from tree to tree, as if we are in a hurry...we aren't though.
We collect and gather and proudly show off our leaves.
Ok, I am so doing this next year with my kids. I didn't think to wax them. I am pretty clueless sometimes- do you get the parafin wax at Michaels? I so do love your ideas.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun activity! But where are the pictures of the garlands you made with all those beautiful leaves? I can't begin to tell you how happy it makes me to see pictures of all of you and your beautiful smiles. What a great and loving mother you have. You are so blessed! Love to tall!
