Today’s article is about dried flowers for candles. You may recall the loaded candles we wrote about last year. Well, these are some pretty botanicals you can purchase to add to the tops of your candles. Loaded candles or botanical candles are very popular right now and are really pretty to gift to family and friends. We get lots of comment about candles with flowers on top and if they are safe to burn.

You should remove the items as the candle burns down, as always candles should NEVER be left unattended, allowing you the opportunity to pop the potentially flammable items out when they come too close to the flame.

Leaf Learning Activities for Kids

There are lots of things you can do with leaves in the classroom and at home, and fun ways to learn about leaves as they start changing color in the fall. 

Learn about different kinds of leaves and match them to their trees with this printable from Montessori Nature. It includes 10 kinds of trees and their leaves to match with. If you have those trees nearby you can also find the real leaves to match with. 

Of course if you’re going on a leaf hunt yourself, you’ll want to save some of those leaves the kids find in their own leaf collection and identification books. You can learn how to make your own from Dappled Skies and DIYs. Or turn your leaf peeping into a sticky leaf scavenger hunt with this idea from Little Pine Learners.

There are a lot of easy art activities you can do with leaves, such as the classic rubbing (check out a tutorial if you need it from Laura Radniecki), complete a picture with half a leaf and learn about symmetry (like in this post from NurtureStore) or drawn in, on and around leaves to make fun art as shown in this idea from Artful Parent. 

Make your leaves into people, paint on them or with them; there are so many possible ideas!

Trace your leaves, label them with what kinds of trees they came from, and then play a matching game like this one from Preschool Toolkit. 

Early Learning Ideas has some great printables on the parts of a tree and a leaf, the life cycle of an oak tree and leaf sorting that you can find on Teachers Pay Teachers. Or check out the leaf investigation worksheet from Turner Tots.
