Autumn tree craft activity: A few things we have been working on during the last week of #exploringnaturewithchildren: the “Autumn tree”.

For these activities we collected different kind of leaves,we bought the first pumpkin of the season and carved it (first time for us!), we made this tree with lentils and dried leaves, and we also recreated these Halloween ghosts, painting leaves with white and drawing faces on it ?.

How cute they are? We are obsessed with them at the moment!

To carve the pumpkin with used autumn cutters this way we could add the shapes to more trays and plays. It’s a great activity for fine motor skills and we made some counting practice. We learnt about seeds and leaves and the cycle of plants which the girls particularly love. And we also enjoy walks collecting these treasures for homeschool activities,it’s so lovely!

Gathering Leaves by Robert Frost

Spades take up leaves
No better than spoons,
And bags full of leaves
Are light as balloons.

I make a great noise
Of rustling all day
Like rabbit and deer
Running away.

But the mountains I raise
Elude my embrace,
Flowing over my arms
And into my face.

I may load and unload
Again and again
Till I fill the whole shed,
And what have I then?

Next to nothing for weight,
And since they grew duller
From contact with earth,
Next to nothing for color.

Next to nothing for use.
But a crop is a crop,
And who’s to say where
The harvest shall stop?
