Autumn tree with punched leaves (3 ideas)
Autumn time is leaf time.
With a maple leaf dancer you can create beautiful works of art.
In order to obtain a great variety of colours, we use coloured advertising brochures and punch out these maple leaves. We have templates for different bald trees, these are included and two alternatives, how you can create a tree of paper strips and paint it yourself. You can then stick to the trees a lot of punched leaves, so that a colorful autumn tree arises.
Don't forget that many leaves are already lying on the ground in autumn!?
Sew a nut snake
There are a lot of nuts in autumn and children can play great with them. Let the nuts dry well so that they don't mold. We have a game idea in which the fine motor skills are trained and in which the children deal with the natural material of the nut. They experience the shape, the structure, the color, the weight etc.

Sewing chestnut fish
A fish with chestnuts in its belly.
In the back there are two fins for holding and helping to fill the fish with chestnuts. At the front the fish mouth is closed with another rubber band and keeps the filled chestnuts in the fish belly. By loosening the rubber the fish can "spew" the whole chestnuts again. A nice material, which is especially popular with crib children. Easy to manufacture and versatile in use. You can also fill with other things, such as marbles or walnuts, small wuschel balls or cotton balls.
