Welcome to our online Flat Travel Homeschool Scrapbook of all our adventures both at home with our Flat Visitors and our road trips

A Flat Traveler is a laminated paper character (it could be a person but it doesn't have to be)that gets sent to other families in an envelope
for a "visit" and comes home with a log of their adventures, some photos of them in their travels, outings and activities, and sometimes some other souvenirs.
It's a fun way to learn about geography and history, and to engage in writing and drawing, among other things. Not to mention making some friends!
The Flat Travelers Homeschool group was formed to give homeschool families a group of participants to contact world wide. As a member of this group you should be prepared to host Flat Travelers from other families as well.

| String of Leaves Make a string of leaves to decorate a room. These simple-to-make strings make a great Fall or Thankgsiving decoration. You can drape the strings across rooms, over windows and from the chandeliers. | More Kinder Crafts |

| Draw a leaf on a piece of construction paper. Make sure to draw a thick stem on the top (your leaf will hang from this stem, which will be folded over). If you'd like, use a leaf template. |
| Cut out the leaf. Draw the leaf veins if you wish. Fold the leaf's stem in half. |
| Attach the leaf to a long string using tape, glue, or staples. Make more leaves and attach them to the string. |
