Happy Fall! Fall has officially begun and I am excited about all of the fun fall family activities. With the ushering in of fall's cool weather, this makes it a great time to get outside with the kids and have some fall fun! I have gathered a variety of suggestions to help your children learn and keep your children entertained during the months of fall. These activities also help you and your children spend quality time together.

• Take a nature hike with your children. This is a great opportunity for your children to collect leaves for a special leaf project. It's also a perfect time for you and your children to talk about their day/week at school. 

• Plant bulbs with your children to enjoy next spring.

• Go on a hayride to a pumpkin patch and have your children pick their own pumpkins.

• Make corn husk puppets with your children.

• Go horseback riding on a scenic trail.  

• Wander through an apple orchard or pumpkin patch.

• Make homemade applesauce, caramel apples or apple cider.

• Check out fall-themed books from the library and read with your children.

• Create a scarecrow from leaves, straw and old used clothes. 

• Help your children press fresh fall leaves and make a pressed leaf scrapbook. 

• Bike through a national forest with your children.

• Visit a local fall craft fair, Oktoberfest or farmer's market.

• Show your children how to create a summer memories scrapbook filled with photos and mementoes from last summer.

• Have your children rake leaves from your yard into a big pile and jump in them!

• Let your children finger-paint a fall scene on construction paper. They can even make fall-themed cards for friends and family. 

• Make a fall wreath using collected leaves, pine cones, acorns and paper plates and hang it on your front door to greet visitors. 

• During a walk in the woods, look for animal tracks and help your children identify them.

• Take your children to a football game.
