Thankful Word Surrounded by Fall Leaves to Color

The word THANKFUL sits in the middle of the page in big outlined block letters, ready to be filled in. Around it, fall leaves are scattered across all four edges. You can spot several maple leaves with pointed lobes, wavy-edged oak leaves, long leaves with serrated edges, and a few narrow oval ones with a center vein and side veins. Two leaves have rows of small leaflets along a stem, like a rowan leaf. Each leaf has its own vein pattern, so there is plenty of detail for pencils or fine markers. Try coloring the leaves in a mix of reds, oranges, yellows, and browns, then let kids pick a bright color for each letter. It also works well as a table activity where everyone writes one thing they are thankful for inside the letters or on the leaves. This printable page is easy to use at home or in a classroom.
