Fall Leaf Stain Glass Designs



Colorful fall leaves

wooden ice cream sticks

paper towels

old crayons pieces

waxed paper

paper clips

kitchen towel

iron

tape



Take your class on a walk outdoors and collect 4 or 5 fall leaves.

Give each child a ice cream stick, paper towel, and some pieces of

old crayon. Ask each child to make crayon shaving over the paper

towel by scraping the side of the ice cream stick against the crayon.



Each child should make a handful of shavings. Next, give your child 2

12"long pieces of waxed paper. Children will then arrange their fall

leaves on one of their pieces of waxed paper. Have the children

sprinkle colored wax in the spaces between the leaves.



Ask each child to lay a second piece of waxed paper on top of his or

her leaf arrangement. Use paper clips to attach each child pieces of

waxed paper together. Place a towel over the paper, to protect the

iron. Then set the iron at a low temperature and iron each child

arrangement. Then display in the window!
