EASY LEAF RUBBING TREE

We took our Camp Fire club camping this past weekend.  The kids had a great time exploring nature and getting dirty!

The younger kids especially love learning about nature through arts and crafts and interactive play, so we try to incorporate a few craft projects into the camping weekend.

KID’S CAMPING CRAFT IDEA: LEAF RUBBING TREE

WHAT YOU NEED

- Leaf rubbing book  - Brad, yarn, washi tape - Crayon  - Tape  - Scissors - Brown yarn  - Toilet paper roll 

INSTRUCTION PART 1

Using recycled empty toilet paper rolls, we taped 8-10 small pieces of brown yarn inside one of the ends of the toilet paper roll (as the tree’s roots).

INSTRUCTION PART 2

The final step was for the kids to tape each of their cut rubbed leaves onto the outside of the roll (the tree’s trunk).

EASY CRAFT IDEA

This was a super easy leaf rubbing craft with a simple but effective lesson on tree anatomy.
