Leaf Collage
ages 3-5
Supplies
Clear contact paper, leaves (or colored paper), kid scissors (for cutting contact paper, and for cutting colored paper if you choose to use it)
Activity Detail
Create a collage of leaves to hang in the window. Cut two sheets of clear contact paper to desired size (a square 8' is good). Peel back paper to reveal sticky side of one sheet, and stick on leaves, moss, etc. of various sizes and colors. Then peel and place other sheet of contact paper over it, and you have a collage you can hang in a window. Also works with cut paper pieces if leaves aren't readily available.

My son made one of these and it is really cool. Hang it in the window and it looks a bit like stained glass.

This activity might be fun using tissue paper to create a stained glass effect when light shines through.

This activity could be expanded many ways, for instance, using flowers in the spring/summer. Would be appropriate to do outdoors as well.

This activity is fun to do in the spring with dried flower petals.
