Fall is such a great season! Lots of awesome themes and fun holidays – apples, pumpkins, leaves, pine cones, acorns, turkeys, Pilgrims, football, Back to School, Halloween, Thanksgiving, FUN FUN FUN 🙂

 

Check out these fun fall activities for kids on Simple Fun for Kids - sensory, art, crafts, printables, and more!

 

This is the third fall season we’re spending in Texas, so we’re incredibly low on colorful leaves {the pinnable image above was taken near our previous home in Germany}, and that’s kind of a bummer. However, we still find many ways to have lots of fun with other symbols of fall.

Click on the thumbnails below to read about all of the fall-related activities we’ve done so far! There are fall printables, sensory activities, learning activities, crafts, fine and gross motor activities, there’s even fall art and fall science!

My favorite fall post is about the Fluorescent Pumpkin E made for her preschool’s pumpkin exhibit last year. It was such a visually appealing activity, and I’m so happy that the photos turned out awesome, too 🙂
