I like reading other people’s blogs and sometimes I discover “new” art projects that remind me of what we did growing up.  Tried and true art projects that seemed to have slipped my mind (like many things do!)  After reading about this leaf project on Simple Kids I decided to give it a go with the kids.  We have no shortage of leaves to work with!  They enjoyed it, especially the running around outside and hunting for “soft” (not dry, crinkly) leaves.  Lex excitedly taped the final results to the window and I tried to get them to pose for a picture, but this is the best I got.  At least he’s smiling :)  (The butterfly in the middle is an old project that Lex won’t let me take down.)
