Day (10/16/11) - Leaf Prints

To celebrate Fall, we collected leaves of various shapes, sizes, and colors that had fallen off the trees in our neighborhood.  Then, we made leaf prints by pressing the leaves between two pieces of paper and rubbing them with crayons.  Ryan is familiar with leaf prints, but Gavin was stunned by the image of the leaves that appeared on the paper.  It was fun to watch him discover the beauty of nature with such a simple craft.
