Craft: Leaf Necklace
- Print template (at left) onto cardstock or heavy paper.  (You should be able to fit two sets of the template onto one regular letter size paper.)
- Cut out leaves  (We used three leaves per necklace.)
- Color leaves
- String leaves onto a 30" piece of curling ribbon along with pony beads
- Tie string into necklace




Extension Activities:
- Go on a leaf hunt.  See how many different types of leaves you can find.  Can you name what kind of leaves they are?  If not, the library has books on leaf identification.
- Grab some fallen leaves from outside and see what you can make out of them (i.e. Leaf Man).
