Take children’s hand shapes and create a forest.

Paper crafts using children’s hands shapes are a great buzz for them.

Trace around part of the arm as well to make the trunk, the fingers will be the branches.

Trace the shape onto brown paper and glue that onto your background paper.

Then chop up lots of autumn or fall colored tissue paper into small pieces.

Scrunch the bits of tissue paper up.

Dunk them in a bit of glue and then pop onto the tree.

Nice, isn't it?
