Ten Fun Fall Activities To Do with Young Children

1. Take a walk outside, pick a scenic trail to enjoy the colors of the leaves changing.

2. Jump in a pile of leaves

3. Pick some pine cones and leaves and make a craft project. For example dribble glitter glue on the pine cone, glue some leaves to colored construction papers.  Glue colored leaves onto a piece of paper to make your own tree.

4. Make up a story with your child about fall, take turns with each person creating the next sentence. Encourage your children to draw pictures to illustrate the story.

5. Pick apples or pumpkins at a local farm or pumpkin patch. Many farms with pumpkin patches also have a maze, hay ride, pony rides and more.
