Homeschool Preschool - Fall and Leaves

 Bleeding Tissue Paper Craft

We used squares of bleeding tissue paper to make beautiful fall leaves!



Once Sweet E filled the entire leaf, she sprayed it generously with water.


After a minute or two, we peeled off the tissue paper squares.


We made several!


Even Honey Pot wanted to help!



Once they dried, they looked great! We hung these along the staircase, and enjoyed them all autumn long.

Alphabet Scavenger Hunt

One of Sweet E's favorite activities is a scavenger hunt. So I found these free printable leaf letters from Teachers Pay Teachers, and I hid the uppercase letters around the house. As Sweet E found them, she came back to this sheet of lowercase letters and matched them up!






Baking Leaf Cookies

It's our first week of fall tradition to bake some maple cinnamon cutout cookies! Sweet E helped with every step of the way, from mixing and rolling out the dough, to cutting and decorating.





They're so delicious!


Measuring with Acrylic Leaves




Tracing with Q-Tips and Paint

Sweet E requests this activity a lot, usually I write numbers and she traces them with q-tips and paint. This time we did it to match our theme. Letters A and B review, and leaves.



And that's a wrap on our fall theme! We're heading to the beach in a couple weeks, so stay tuned for some fun beach and ocean activities!
