Instructions:
1. Print out the template and let the kids create their leaves by following the pattern. The orange part of the template represents the whole leaf. The kids should substitute different shades of orange and red beads to fill these areas to make each leaf unique.
2. Place baking paper over the beads and iron them so that they adhere to one another. Let it cool. Remove the leaf from the peg board and turn the picture. Place baking paper over the picture once again and iron for a few seconds on the backside. Let cool.
3. To hang the leaf, pull the perlon thread through one of the top center holes and knot.
