Does anyone live in an area where the leaves are changing colors yet? If so, would you be willing to mail me some leaves? Pretty please? I live in an area where we don't really get seasons but I would like to use leaves in our fall curriculum. I'll happily send you money for postage and your time.

Usually if you keep them in a ziplock bag they will be okay for a couple of weeks

I don't know what state she is in, but I'll send you some too if you want some variation in types/colors.

We have maple trees, oak trees, poplar/aspen, birch etc...

I am in Utah and I have maple trees turning (for sure) in my yard and some aspen (but they are still mostly green).

The type of leaves doesn't matter, the colors are more what I am interested in. Here fall is still in the high 90's/low 100's so when we do our fall unit of learning it tends to be a hard concept to grasp for the kids. But they will love having real fall leaves to learn about and explore.

I will try to get some good colored ones and if for some reason I can't, I'll let you know! I lot of the trees are still green, but I can see in our mountains leaves are turning already. I think my maple tree is turning!

BlackCat and Baby Beluga,
I got home and checked my leaves and all the leaves around my work and they are not changing yet. It seems to only be up in the mountains and I won't have time to get up there in the forseeable future.

I can send the leaves when they change, if you can wait! I thought my maple tree was changing, but it most definitely is not LOL

Can you get them at michaels? Or another art store? Nothing is changing here yet!
