Autumn arrives is all it's colorful glory this Thursday so we will be celebrating throughout the week. Fall is my favorite season- the beautiful colors, the cool air, sweaters, apples, pumpkins, baking- what's not to love!
Crafts
Acorn Painting- similar to our veggie paintings from last month, we'll be rolling some acorns around to make vibrant fall paintings
Leaf Prints- we'll collect some leaves to make prints
Autumn Print Making- cookie cutters and styrofoam trays will be used to make some great prints
Crayon and Wax Paper Leaves- check out these beauties that Vanessa at Vand Co. made; we'll be attempting them too
Paint Sample Autumn Wreath- see how we transform autumn colored paint samples into a fun fall wreath
Autumn Tree- with Eva's arm as the tree and tissue paper squares as the leaves, this craft will be a colorful one
Activities
Leaf Dance- we will be pretending to be leaves and dance in the wind
Leaf Hunt- the leaves have only begun to change color in our neck of the woods but we will still look for different types as we walk through the neighborhood
Leaf Sorting- we'll borrow some leaves from our sensory tub to sort according to size, color and any other attributes we can think of
Fall Sensory Tub- we have a few new additions to our September sensory tub
Acorn Matching Game- I'll be making a simple alphabet matching game for Eva to play
