One of the best parts of fall is watching the leaves change colors and fall to the ground. You’ll enjoy watching your child bring out his/her creativity with this fun fall leaves painting activity. What’s even better is that you don’t have to live in a place where the leaves are actually fully changing! It also allows your child to express their creativity without creating a huge mess.

Fall Leaves Process Painting
Process art is becoming a more popular method in teaching children, as it focuses on the process rather than the product or output. It allows learners to learn and explore without exactly copying the product or output. In other words, they can freely decide what to do and how to do their artwork! This is good because they can try various things and see what happens - and learn from it! As parents, we would only be there to supervise and give remarks. When giving feedback, remember not to always praise them or their output. It would be better to say something about their choice of color or materials, give suggestions, or ask why they chose it.
Materials for the Fall Leaves Painting:
-
an empty toilet paper roll
-
paints, assorted fall leaf colors
-
a tree trunk shape cutout
-
white paper or cardstock
-
glue
Procedure in creating your own Fall Leaves Painting:
Step 1 Attach the tree trunk shape cutout in white paper or cardstock using glue.
Step 2 Take your toilet paper roll and squish it so it creates a leaf-like shape.
Step 3 Allow your child to dip the open end into a color of their choice. Then, they will stamp the painted end somewhere on their tree. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter where and it’s fun to see what they come up with!
Step 4 Continue to dip the toilet paper roll into the different colors until your child feels like their artwork is complete.
This process art is great for kids ages 2-6, or so. The younger the child, the more supervision is advised.
Looking to add in some learning?
Art pairs so well with reading and writing! This is a great activity to do alongside reading a book about fall or changing leaves. You can find books at your local library, through an app on your phone or computer, or at a book store.
