What we observed:
We observed that leaves come in all different sizes, shapes, and colors.
What we acknowledged:
That God made the leaves, and He made all things for His own glory. Looking at the beauty of the leaves makes us want to thank God and give Him glory.
Catechism Question #3:
Q: Why did God make you and all things?
A: For His own glory.
What we did:
We played and jumped in the leaves, listening to the crunchy sound they make.
We made a tree using leaves we had gathered on our many walks.
We made colorful leaf rubbings.
We made leaf prints in play dough
What we sang:
(tune: Freres Jacques)
Leaves are falling, Leaves are falling
On the ground, on the ground,
Red and Yellow, Orange and Brown
Leaves are falling on the ground
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
What We Read: (Thank you, Library. Oh how we love you.)

You are amazing, Johanna!! I love you. And I wish we were enjoying the fall with you.
LOL! Mom wrote what I was going to write--and Kelly is here to witness that! I said, "Sister, Dear, you're amazing!" :) Love it! Do we get a picture of the finished tree? Very cool idea.
What an excellent mommy you are!
