leaf print making

Leaf Printing

A great Fall art project is leaf printing.

When working with toddlers this can have both good and bad outcomes.

The trick that I find works best is to use a thick, dark paper which makes the prints stand out more.

I also love using a brayer, and so do the kids. It makes for a nicer print then having

the children paint the leaves and then print with them.

The children also love using any kind of tool, so the brayer makes it more fun for them.
