Craft of the Week--Nature Walk Memory Saver
Very easy project for toddlers to tweens. If you are at a national, state, regional, or even your local playground, nature walks are fun, exciting, and (scary) educational. Here is a great way to keep the memory of a great walk and keep your child's nature treasures for years to come.
1. While on a walk, have child bring a small bag for their treasures. This project is best with flat object such as leaves, thin flowers, pine needles, etc.
2. Roll out an 8 1/2 by 11 inch piece of contact or laminate paper. Fold in half to achieve a crease. Open laminate to full page. Peel away paper from the laminate.
3. Have child arrange their treasures on 1/2 side of the laminate paper.
4. Once arranged, fold empty side of contact/laminate paper over the treasure arrangement. Press out air bubbles. If needed, lay a large heavy book or flat object on laminate.
5. You can cut the corners for rounded look.
6. Makes for great book marks with the use of a hole punch and ribbon.
