feel a leaf

We have been talking about leaf parts and jobs.  Particularly the veins.  So we rubbed some veins into some aluminum foil. 



The pictures don't show the imprints very well - but they were really cool and it really helped the kids appreciate the feel of the leaves and their veins.  To do this just pick a leaf, lay it on top of a piece of cardboard vein side up, then lay aluminum foil on top - wrap the ends around the card board so the leaf and foil don't move.  Then just rub.
