Three Long Willow Leaves on a Single Twig

Three long, narrow leaves fan out from one thin twig at the upper right, drawn in clean black outlines on a white background. The top leaf is the largest and stretches far to the left, while the other two angle down toward the bottom of the page. Each leaf has a bold central vein with curved side veins branching off it, and the edges have small wavy serrations. The tips taper to sharp points. There is no shading, so every section is open for color. Kids can try several shades of green for the veins and blades, or save a few leaves for autumn yellows and browns. It also works well as a printable for a nature lesson, where children trace the midrib and count the side veins on each leaf before they start coloring.
