Go Take a Hike!


For kids. (that includes me)
Take a walk this weekend and collect fall leaves in every color and size. Go down to the river and collect nice smooth river rocks.
If the leaves are dry iron them between two sheets of wax paper with a thin dish rag(or paper towel) on either side. The leaves will not curl up, and will remain fresh and flat.
Lay them out on a mantle, or your window sill to celebrate what fall is about! If you can you have them available in your yard you can add pine cones, scotch moss, or even some little pumpkins.
YOu can also hang the leaves from strings in your window, or keep it in the wax paper and hang it like a stained glass window!
IF you are really into fall... make it a caramelled apple and cider day too!
Have fun and go play oits better than playing in the street!
