Was just wondering what fun stuff other people have been up to with the leaves? We have been looking at the different shapes and colours and been doing some leaf printing. We have also been looking at the different texture and noises the fallen leaves make and have tried to think of why that might be. The children (YR) are loving playing with them so much, I would love some more ideas XXX

I had planned to make bird feeders this week, so at the weekend went to a local market where there was a stall selling nuts and seeds.
