Making leaf rubbing with crayon

Making leaf rubbing with crayon
Today we made leaf rubbings with crayon and they turned out quite well, all the age groups were able to make them without difficulty. First we put the leaf under the paper and then positioned it on the page. Then we rubbed a crayon without paper on it’s flat side. It makes quite an impression! We varied it with different colored paper and crayon. Many children made several. Then we were able to see the veins in the leaf very clearly. Then we took the magnify glass and looked at the veins on the leaf.
