Here’s an easy way to celebrate fall with your little ones!
Our autumn tree is made up of a very special trunk! We painted C’s arm and hand and printed it on the page.
Trunk and branches made from arm and handprint!
For the leaves, I gave C a palette of fall paint colors and another plate full of torn up tissue paper (leftover from our JetPack project), scraps of orange corduroy, pieces of a brown lunch bag, and for apples… we used hole punches from red construction paper. He LOVED working with the hole puncher!
C drizzled glue throughout the branches of his tree.
He decided against thumb and finger prints for leaves and went with the plate of scraps.
This one is going in a frame!
