Tigers in the Wild!

Leaf Rubbings (Tigers in the wild Requirement 6)

Have the tigers bring in two leaves. Have some extra samples on hand to make sure there will be different types of leaves for them to compare. 

To make a leaf rubbing: 

1. Lay the leaves on a piece of plain white paper. Be sure the veins are facing up. The more variety you have in the shapes and vein patterns, the more interesting the rubbings will be. 

2. Lay another sheet of plain white paper on top of the leaves. 

3. Choose a crayon and peel off the paper wrapper. 

4. Using the side of the crayon, gently rub over the top sheet of paper. 

5. Try different colors and leaf arrangements, and enjoy the beautiful pictures your Tigers create! 

6. Using leaf rubbings and the actual leaves, have the den identify the leaves. Point out the characteristics of each leaf.
