Enjoy a fun Fall Scavenger Hunt this week with this free printable list of clues!

It's that time again -- leaves are changing, animals are preparing for winter and Mother Nature is showing off her true colors.  And there's no easier way to get out and delight in the seasonal changes than with a fun & easy Autumn Scavenger Hunt!

Easy leaf rubbing activity - part art and part science, kids of all ages will enjoy learning how to do leaf rubbings and get a peek into the parts of a leaf!

Ever since I was a child, I was fascinated by the idea of being able to lay a leaf under paper, rub a crayon over the top and create this beautiful self-made art -- an instant 'picture' that shows all the detailed lines and swirls of the leaf.

As I grew to become a nature lover, I realized that making a leaf print is much more than just a pretty picture -- it's also a peek into the science of trees.

Enjoy these multicultural STEM picture books that are perfect for preschool and elementary girls & boys who love to tinker, create, invent and engineer!

You know us, we LOVE sharing great books for kids!

And since we also love sharing STEM Activities for kids too, I thought we'd combine these two BIG global ideas - diverse children's books and STEM activities -- into a truely AMAZING list of books that will inspire both kids and adults!
