Kid's Thanksgiving Crafts String of Leaves

Construction paper (orange, red, yellow, brown, and other earth tones)
Crayons or markers
Scissors
Glue, tape, or staples
A long piece of green or brown yarn or string


Draw a leaf on a piece of construction paper. Make sure to draw a thick stem on the top (your leaf will hang from this stem, which will be folded over). If you'd like, use a leaf template.
Cut out the leaf. Draw the leaf veins if you wish.
Fold the leaf's stem in half.

Attach the leaf to a long string using tape, glue, or staples. Make more leaves and attach them to the string.
