Stickyboard fun

These are perfect Autumn fun. Kids love doing them and it gets them really looking around their surroundings. They work well at small sizes, about the size of a postcard.

1) Cover a board in double sided sticky tape. Any board will do, mountboard, cut up cereal packets, cut down cardboard boxes, old card backed envelopes...

2) Leave the backing on the face until you get to your location

3) Then once in the garden, at the park or somewhere else pretty... peel off and get the kids to pick up small stones, twigs, leaves, petals, feathers etc. that they like. (Always best to get them picking stuff off the ground, not off living flowers and trees, as it will upset the gardener!). For older kids encourage them to have a theme to their boards, e.g. a specific colour, or texture or even creating a picture with the bits and pieces e..g a bird or tree

4) when back at home put the stickyboard on display for everyone to see and enjoy!
