Leaf Monster Art for Kids

The leaves have started to turn here in the south!  I am super excited for Fall as I love the weather, activities, and holidays it brings.  While on a morning walk I stepped on a colorful leaf and inspiration hit.  I can make Leaf Monster Art with the kids when I get back home. The colorful leaves would make a great canvas for a morning art project.

What we used:

Colorful leaves (you could make leaf shapes out of paper too)

yarn

buttons

construction paper cutout mouths/teeth

What we did:

Set the invitation to create out for the kids and let them take over.
My oldest added some yarn hair, button, eyes, and paper mouth, and nose.

We have had our Leaf Monsters for about 3-4 days and they are hanging on.  They have not crumbled yet.  I did laminate several more leaves for us to make more.  Then we should be able to keep them longer.

We hope you can enjoy this idea too.

Please do come and visit us again. We would love to have you back.

       All kids are different and only you can decide how you let your kids play. And with what materials you let them play with. My children are supervised when playing. Please keep this in mind with any post you read of mine!
