This was a great craft to highlight the changing colours in the leaves.  You need a variety of colours of construction paper, scissors and a glue stick.  Draw a tree on your construction paper, cut out little leaves from a few different colours of construction paper.  To shortcut this, I mainly cut out “pointy circles”, not fancy maple leaves. … and the toddlers did not even notice.  Pour yourself a big cup of coffee, grab the nursing baby.  Hand your kids glue sticks, and let them go to town.

…or let them just eat the non-toxic glue.  …whatever.  (it’s ok, because they’ll be getting organic apples for snack, so it balances out the glue).
