Oh wait - it’s still Fall!

Filed under: Home, Kids and Parenting, Tips, Plants and Wildlife

It’s so easy this time of year to get completely caught up in getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas that you can miss some of the awesomeness of fall. After reading a few posts in other places I thought I’d give you some ideas on what you can do to enjoy fall at your house.

• If the leaves aren’t all gone, collect some for art projects or just rake them up and jump in them.
• Enjoy breaking out the flannel shirts, sweaters and jeans (I’m from Texas so these just came out recently).
• Make some fabric leaves (download pattern automatically).
• Make paper pumpkin ornaments (which look like a good shape for Christmas ornaments too).
• Cook up some pumpkin pasta with the
  last of the giant orange squash.
• Make some paper turkeys for you Thanksgiving table.
• Make a Japanese Mikoshi and learn about the Japanese Festival tradition.
• Use felt to make some leaves for your little one to play with.
• Have a nature table in your home or wonderful fall finds.
