Painting with Autumn Materials

Thanks to our wonderful families, we've acquired quite the collection of fall objects to explore in our classroom. 

One of our favourite blogs had a post about painting with natural materials by attaching signs of fall to sticks and encouraging children to explore with them. We decided to give it a try!

The 'brushes' looked beautiful when grouped together on the table!

It was interesting to see the kind of marks the materials left in the paint. We noticed lots of textures.










What a neat way to bring nature indoors and discuss the signs of the seasons changing with our children!
