Go on a walk together and collect leaves of different shapes and sizes. Bring them home and lay them flat on a table. Cover a leaf with a piece of paper and using the broad side of a crayon, show your child how to rub the crayon on the paper right on top of where the leaf is lying underneath.
The shape and pattern of the leaf will appear on the paper. Talk together about how the leaves are different shapes, sizes, and make different patterns. Hang you child's artwork where his family and friends will see it!
This activity will help your child learn about shapes, patterns and textures!
