Leaf Rubbings!


Thankfully, the days have been cooler now and this seemed like a great fall art project with Levi. I figured that grasping the tiny crayons and rubbing them on their sides would be wonderful fine motor skill practice. I did not realize how much work this would end up being for him! We really take for granted all of the little things that we think nothing of, but can be such a struggle for others. I didn't expect it to be a piece of cake, but I didn't take into consideration how he would need to be able to keep the paper from shifting, not to mention keeping the leaf in place underneath. And I think he was just thinking, "WHY? Why does she want me to do this?" But we did it and it was forward progress.
