Fall Kid’s Crafting Idea: Painting Leaves

Today I am going to share a fun and easy Fall painting craft for the kids in your life! I did this craft with the youngest girl that I nanny for and she had a fun time.

The supplies that you need for this craft are as following:

  • Fall Paint Colors
  • Paint Brush
  • Paper of your color choice
  • A selection of Leaves
  • Masking tape
  • Paper plate or Palette to put Paint on

Step 1: Take a small amount of tape and roll and place on the back of each leaf and place them throughout the piece of paper.

Step 2: Choose your paint color and paint over top of the entire leaf and bring the paint as far around the leaf as you would like

Step 3: Continue to paint over each leaf with your different colors, until you have covered all of the leaves you have placed on the paper.

Step 4: Now it is time to let the paint dry to make it easier to remove the leaves and tape.

Step 5: Once dry, pull off the leaves and you can throw them away.

What will remain is a cool painting showing the shapes of the leaves and also lots of color as well!

I hope that you are able to do this craft with your little ones and that you have as much fun as we did! I want to hear about if you chose this craft to do and how it went. Please feel free to leave comments about your experience.
