"Making Montessori Ours": Fall Leaf Sorting Activities

Ava found these leaves and trays at the dollar store. This is a simple sorting activity that essentially she put together 💕

These are silk leaves though we have done this with real leaves also. Ava loved the leaf bowls.

She was interested in sorting by size and colour.

She tweezed and hand sorted.

Ava LOVES leaves, and collects them everywhere she goes.

Here are a few other leaf activities from our Montessori Botany studies here and here.

This is our Fall Nature Tray. The tray is filled with different gourds (from a dear friend), pie pumpkins, leaves, a cross section and larger piece of pine branch that fell in the yard. They love this tray:)) Ava takes out the gourds and does all kinds of sorting, and funny things with them:))
