Leaf Prints, Kindergarten

Just wanted to share these wonderful Kindergarten prints. These prints were done with real leaves. I can not take complete credit for this lesson because I found it on Deep Space Sparkle and adapted it to my kindergartners.

Directions:

1. white paint is brushed on the back of the leaf

2. Flip leaf over onto the black paper. Place a scrap piece of paper over it and rub.

3. The students are amazed when they lift the leaf up and see the print. They think it's magic. :)

4. The space around the leaf was stamped with a sponge. (make sure to tell them Not to paint on top of the leaf)

I just love this project. Kindergartners are awesome!
