    October 16, 2016 By Emma Vanstone Leave a Comment

    I love bright, beautiful autumn colours. The trees near our house have just started to change and I can’t wait to see their full vibrant red and yellow leaves in a few weeks time. Do you know why leaves change colour in autumn?

    Why do leaves change colour in autumn?

    This infographic from Forestry Commission England explains brilliantly.

    4 small sticks

    Thick string

    Leaves

    How to make a mini weaving loom

    Place the sticks into a square shape and use the string to tie each corner tightly.

    Wrap the string around two sides tightly and tie the ends.

    Thread some leaves through the string.
