Jungle Trees

A4 paper

cardboard tubes

paint

scissors

glue

black marker

Print out the leaves and paint the backs green.

Paint cardboard tubes (toilet rolls are great!) a nice browny trunk colour

Add tree markings with a black marker. Try short downward strokes and rows of 'u's or 'w's

Cut out the leaf shapes and fold in half lengthwise

Make random triangular cuts to make the leaves like palm leaves as shown in the photo

Glue the ends of the leaves to the inside of the cardboard tube - it's easier to start with the smaller leaves

Pinch the leaves to fold them down where you want them
