Little ones have been spending a lot of time gathering leaves, throwing them in the stroller, stuffing them in my pockets. Asking me to hold onto that perfect leaf and days later requesting “the beautiful yellow one with the squiggly lines”. We’ve been raking, painting leaves with watercolors, and giving toys leaf baths. I’ve been picking them out of tangled hair, and continue to find them in corners of my home. I’ve also been inspired by little ones to make some “leaf crafts” of my own. A glue gun, fake leaves and glitter provided hours and hours of fun these past few week.
