Autumn Lettering Made From Veined Leaves

A tall column of leaves is arranged so the shapes form flowing letters, and the word looks like Autumn when you turn the page sideways. Every leaf is drawn in clean black outline with a center vein and slanted side veins, so there are lots of small sections to fill in. Some leaves are long and slim with pointed tips, and others curl into loops and hooks with thin stems that link one letter to the next. The background is plain white. Try coloring each letter in its own fall shade, like rust, gold, olive, and brown, then let kids trace the word with a finger to practice reading it. It is a free printable that works well for older kids who enjoy detailed work.
