Kids Fall Leaf Wreath

Kids Craft: Fall Leaf Wreath
 
 
Perfect for fall, to hang in windows, on walls, or doorknobs throughout the season, as well as during Thanksgiving, this wreath is easy and fun to make. No matter if it is a boy or girl, kids enjoy crafting, especially during the holiday months (October thru December). Not only is this a great fall craft for children, it is also a great opportunity to take a few minutes adding some autumn to the home and spending time with the kids.

 
 
Materials:
 
  • 24 pack of Fall Leaves (available at craft stores) or Fall Leaf Garland, leaves cut off
  • 1 Plain White Economy plate
  • All-Purpose Elmer's Glue
  • Scissors
  • Fall Colored Ribbon
Directions:
 
  1. Make a hole in the middle of the plate and cut out the middle, leaving the rim.
  2. Place the glue onto the plate, squeeze and spread around 1/4 of the plate. Layer Leaves, do the same thing for the rest of the plate.
  3. Press the leaves to make sure they stick, let the glue dry for 10-20 minutes.
  4. Tie Ribbon around the top of the wreath, double knot at the top of the ribbon and hang on the wall.
Not only a fun leaf craft for fall, but can also be done as a craft project for he kids during Thanksgiving Dinner, while food is being prepared. The kids could hang their wreaths before the meal or choose to give them to someone who they are Thankful for and say one reason they are Thankful for that person. Happy Fall!!!
