Fall is one of the best times for playful learning.

Turning Leaves into Craft Projects
The Fall season (September, October, and November) is a great time for a colorful art project. Watercolors help blend the vibrant reds, golds, and oranges of the season. Make a wreath with dried leaves, acorns, and ribbon.
We’ve got tons of arts and crafts ideas from easy-peasy to more advanced projects.
Check out our Leaf Crafts, Salt Painting Leaf Art, and Leaf Bowl DIY.
With bright days and cooler weather, why not throw a leaf theme fall party? You can organize games like bobbing for apples and corn hole.
Set up a pumpkin carving station and another table with fall art activities. Try setting our paint brushes and paints for kids to create still-lifes of leaves and gourds.
Flavors of Fall
But what’s a fun fall party without amazing Fall party food? The flavors of autumn are definitely something to fall for. (See what we did there?)
Carrot cake donuts, pumpkin bread, apple pie, and apple cider in mason jars will set a festive tone. A fall leaf wreath makes for a gorgeous table centerpiece.
These fall leaf activities are great for weekends when the adults might be preoccupied with game day and fantasy football leagues. Print out the worksheets to keep kids entertained during the big game.
With easy-to-follow directions, kids can move from one sheet to the next and learn independently.
