The leaves are changing colours (here in the Northern Hemisphere). It’s time to cozy up with your little one to learn about trees, leaves and the changing seasons.
I love all of Lois Ehlert’s books and this is no exception. They are brightly coloured collage picture stories about nature and kids love them!
This is a perfect book for fall.
The explosion of colour, cut out leaves, big print and simple story about the life cycle of a sugar maple tree will engage early readers and little ones. Teachers or parents who are home schooling or looking for a way to theme a class lesson or bring in crafts and activities will love this book.
It’s time to get creative and start collecting leaves.
Helps with: appreciating nature, learning how to plant and grow a tree, understanding the life cycle of a tree and changing seasons, creative ideas for craft projects (leaf themed) and teaching about trees.
