Supplies

Construction paper and leaves

Activity Detail

You'll just need a sunny day, a few leaves (or other objects) and some construction paper for this fun, mess-free activity! Place a piece of construction paper in the sun. Have your child arrange leaves, sticks, or other natural items on the paper. Leave the paper and objects out in the sun for an hour or so. The sun will fade the paper around the objects, leaving the area under the objects dark.
