fun with leaves

Just four days ago,me and my son went for a walk in the park.we gathered leaves and rocks.i knew in my mind what i want to do with the leaves and that is to make animals.here are pictures of what we've created
Toucan

I ended up gluing most of it because my son got frustrated of the leaves that wouldn't stick right away on the cardstock so he just glued quite a few leaves with my guidance.But he had fun putting the googly eyes.
Here are some of our creations

Just a sneak peak on what we will be doing with the rocks that my son collected,here's a picture


So what are you waiting for?go gather some beautiful fall leaves and rocks in your backyard or in the park.What an inexpensive way to do art,isn't it?Have fun! :)

    1. I don’t see an answer to this question but years ago, I would take a leaf press it between wax paper and then frame it and it would last for 10 years or so.
