Another fall leaf craft!

This is a great craft for fall and is suitable for all ages. (I did this with a 1 1/2 year old. ) You will need to fold two pieces of paper in half and cut out half of a leaf shape. Be sure to fold and cut both pieces of paper together. the leaves need to line up exactly. I used a pencil to lightly draw my leaf shape before cutting. When you unfold your papers you should have nice leaves cut out of the middles.

Next you will need two pieces of contact paper a little bit larger than your leaf shape. You can set one piece on the table, sticky side up, and tape down the corners. Then have the kids rip up little pieces of tissue paper and stick them to the contact paper. I only had red and yellow tissue paper, so that's what we used. It actually worked out well, since when they were done and hung in the window, the kids could see how the yellow and red papers made orange.

Once they have stuck down their tissue paper, you will need to carefully stick the other piece of contact paper on top, laminating the tissue paper.

Now you can take your laminated tissue paper and glue or tape it in between the two leaf cutout papers. Hang it in the window and it looks beautiful when the sun shines through!
