A Fall Alphabet Craft
Give your children a hands-on way to learn their ABCs this fall—with real leaves they gather, glue, and trace.
Some children are ready to read, and some are still learning to hold a crayon—and this Leaf Alphabet Craft was made for both at once. Your kids gather real leaves, glue them into a letter animal, and trace the word, working through the whole alphabet at whatever pace fits them. It’s simple enough for your youngest and open-ended enough for the big kids, so every child at the table can make their own.

The hard part of crafting with a group
When your children aren’t all the same age
Craft time with a mixed bunch of ages is a hard thing to get right. A craft that’s just right for your five-year-old is too fiddly for the three-year-old and too plain for the seven-year-old.
Either way, there’s always a child who’s lost, and a child who’s bored, and rarely a moment they’re all happy at once.
Wouldn’t it be nice if…
…one craft could fit every child at the table, no matter their age?
One where your three-year-old, your five-year-old, and your seven-year-old could all sit down with the same pages and each make something they’re proud of.
You would not have to hunt down a different craft for every age. You would not have to simplify one for the little ones or stretch one for the big kids. And you would not have to finish the hard parts yourself while they wandered off.
Then the Leaf Alphabet Craft is exactly what you’ve been looking for.

A note from Betty
I made this the same way I’d make it for my own children.
Hi, I’m Betty. I’m a homestead mom of little ones, and my days are full of making things by hand—sewing, baking, growing our food, and crafting right alongside my kids, usually with someone in my lap.
This Leaf Alphabet Craft grew out of the way we already do things around here. Come fall, my children can’t walk past a pile of leaves without scooping up an armful, and I wanted a way to turn all those leaves into something they’d learn from—their letters, their sounds, the animals they love—made from the very ones they gathered outside.
So I made a craft that meets a child right where they are. The little ones follow the shapes and press their leaves in place. The bigger ones take it further on their own. Same leaves, same pages, every child proud of what they made.
I put these together the same way I’d make them for my own children at my own kitchen table. That’s the only way I know how to do it.
Why families love it
What there is to love about it
Every child stays busy
The little ones follow the shapes while the big kids do it their own way, so no one’s lost and no one’s bored.
They’ll want to show it off
Each child finishes their own letter animal and carries it off to show whoever’s nearby.
The kind of thing they remember
They build the alphabet with their own hands, and that’s what stays with them.
Nothing to plan
Print it, hand it over, and everything they need is right there on the page.
You won’t have to fix it
A finished, full-color example on every page means it turns out right the first time.
Made with their own two hands
Real leaves off the ground turned into every letter, A to Z.
What’s inside
What you’ll get when you grab the Leaf Alphabet Craft
Everything you need for the whole alphabet, done for you and ready to print.
01
26 letter pages, A to Z
A leaf craft for every letter, from an ant to a zebra, so you’ve got the whole alphabet in one place and never run out mid-week.
02
A leaf-placement guide on every page
Dashed shapes show your child which leaves to find and where they go, so even the little ones can build it on their own.
03
Uppercase and lowercase on each page
Both letters are shown every time, so children learn to know a letter either way they see it.
04
A word to trace under every craft
The matching word sits on real handwriting lines with a dotted guide, so they practice their letters while they craft.
05
A finished, full-color example for every letter
A picture of the completed craft on each one, so children see exactly what they’re making and it turns out right the first time.
06
A full A–Z reference chart
All 26 crafts on a single page, ready to pin up on the wall or hand over so they can see the whole alphabet at a glance.
07
A simple instruction page
Plain steps and a few tips, so you can hand it off and everything they need is right there.

Included free
Plus a bonus for when they’re ready for more
Leaf Alphabet Craft — Without the Guide Version ($10.99 value)
Get the same 26 letters, but with the leaf guides taken away. Instead of dashed shapes showing them where each leaf goes, your child gets the drawn parts—the butterfly’s body, the lion’s face, the wreath ring—and decides the rest themselves.
That’s the version your big kids grow into. The little ones start with the guides, and when they’re ready to do it their own way, the second version is already waiting—no new craft to buy, no new lesson to plan. One pack that fits your children now and keeps fitting them as they grow.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a printable, or something you mail me?
It’s a printable. As soon as you buy it, you’ll get a link to download the whole thing and print it at home—as many copies as you need, whenever you need them. Nothing comes in the mail.
What ages is it for?
It works for little ones just learning their letters all the way up to kids who are starting to read—roughly ages 3 to 7. That’s the whole point of the two versions: the guided one for the youngest, and the bonus without guides for when they’re ready to do more.
What’s the difference between the two versions?
The main one has dashed leaf guides that show your child exactly where each leaf goes, so even the youngest can follow along. The bonus takes those guides away, so the older ones decide for themselves which leaves to use and where. Same 26 letters, two levels—one purchase.
What if we can’t find leaves where we live?
Fresh leaves work best, but dried or pressed ones work just as well, and you can flatten a few in a book ahead of time. If real leaves are hard to come by, children can color the leaf shapes in instead and still build every letter.
Do I need any special supplies?
Just a printer, some leaves, and glue or tape—crayons or markers if they’d like to color, too. Everything you need is likely already in your house or your backyard.
How do I get it after I buy?
Right after you check out, you’ll get a link to download your files. It’s yours to keep, so you can print it again and again, this fall and every fall after.
Fall doesn’t last long, and neither do the leaves
Make this the fall they learn their letters
Children hold onto what they make with their own hands, and this is the kind of thing they’ll remember. They gather real leaves, build a letter animal from each one, and trace the word underneath—learning their ABCs without a worksheet or a screen in sight. You get both versions of the whole alphabet, done for you and yours to keep, today for just $7.
