Leaf People

Last week we made leaf people. I planed on sharing our fun before now. but we are going through a time of transition, and I'm still trying to figure it all out:)

The 1st step in making leaf people is of course is going outside and gathering leaves. However, the day we decided to do out craft started out extremely cold, so we stayed in most of the morning trying to keep warm.

John has not yet figured out that as an older brother ,he has to make sure his best friends aren't romancing his sister. It's a lesson he may have to learn sooner rather than later I'm afraid!

Once it warmed up a little, we bundled up and went to gather our leaves. As you can see Audrey was running the show.

Once inside they each picked out a piece of construction paper, and the leaves they needed to build their leaf men or woman in Audrey's case.

A little glue, some googly eyes, and a sharpie smile later they where all very proud of their creations!
