Caterpillar leaf walk

The Caterpillar class took a leaf walk Tuesday.  We walked around the church, searching for colorful leaves.  There were a lot!  Most were still wet with dew, so we put them between sheets of newspaper and stacked blocks on top to keep them flat.  Thursday we removed the blocks, and found flat, colorful leaves perfect for use in art projects.  We tried rubbings, but were much more successful with painting the backs of the leaves and using them like stamps.  Lots of proud friends taking art home today.
