It’s already fall? What? Yes! Summer is a memory and school is back in session. Routines, schedules, and extracurricular activities are in full force … AGAIN. What to do? Have fun! Fall is a great season for fun family activities to break up the daily grind. There are so many possibilities before the winter sets in and a whole new set of fun activities!

Fun Fall Family Activities

Enjoy Nature

Nature is a great learning opportunity as well as tons of fun!

Nature walks
Nature scavenger hunts
Hiking or cycling
Family sports (soccer or football)

Cook Together

Cooking is a great chance to teach your kids a skill and spend quality time together. Open up those cookbooks (or dust them off, in my case).

Halloween treats
Thanksgiving recipes
Homemade applesauce or cider
Pumpkin or apple pie

Craft Time!

Crafts are fun, educational, and there are endless possibilities.

Apple or Corn Prints
Handprint-turkeys
Pumpkin art
Table centerpiece (use scavenger hunt items!)

Explore

Explore your local area for fun. You never know what you’ve been missing right next door!

Visit a pumpkin patch
Pick apples at a local orchard
Fly kites at a local park
Camp out in your own backyard (don’t forget the smores!)

Grab a Book or a Pen

Read & Write with your kids for fun!

Write/draw a list of things for which your family is thankful
Create “Wish Books” for Christmas
Visit the library for seasonal books
Read favorite stories over an outdoor picnic

Hopefully this list has helped you think and imagine of all the possibilities for fun this fall.
