In autumn children are fascinated by the falling leaves. They not only shine beautifully colorfully, they rustle as they run over and float past them in the wind.
In addition, leaves are also interesting again in spring. Then, when they grow again on all branches and announce the spring with their bright green.
I'll show you how you can easily make real-looking leaves from egg boxes (egg box). You just need a little color (water color or crayons) and a pair of scissors.
With a real leaf style they look very real from afar???

You need an empty egg box.
For smaller children, paint the box first, let it dry and then cut out the leaves.
For larger children, you can first cut out the leaves and then paint them with paint.
You draw the sheet with a pencil. Look at the picture.
Then you separate the middle pointed bags. You can do this before marking, then the leaves can be marked more easily.
Now cut out the leaves with the scissors.
The leaves are now painted with the brush. First from the inside,...
... and then from the outside!
Let the paint dry.
Tip: If the paint should dry faster, then you can blow the leaves.
Now you stick a handle from a real leaf to it. To do this, you put a hot glue point on the painted leaf and stick the handle to it.
The carton is stable on the table and can be better held for small children.
The egg box is painted from the inside on the side walls and on the bottom of the egg box.
Close the box so that it is stable on the base. Now the leaves can be painted from the outside.
Once the paint is dried, the leaves can be cut out as described above.
Then, as described above, you stick the stems on the leaves.
Coloured leaves:
Decorate an autumn branch or thread it for a mobile made of natural materials.
Green leaves:
Stick it to a bare branch and decorate your spring table with it.
Stay creative and try it out!
Have fun!
