Fall Trees with Painted Papers

 


Cut out a brown paper tree trunk shape and add brown crayon for texture. Add blue paint to 3/4 of the top of the paper with two fingers. Add green and yellow paint to the bottom part of the paper.  With your fingers pull the green and yellow paint to create the illusion of grass.  Glue down your trunk. Wad small squares of yellow, orange, red and brown paper and then glue them to the top of the tree.  Then wad squares of painted paper and glue onto your fall tree.  Wadding the paper is great for muscle development in the young child.

I had painted paper that I prepped ahead of time. The students could make their own painted paper to use.  

Extra activities could include reading books or poems about fall.  Also the kids enjoy this song about the seasons.
