Celebrating Fall
Welcome, fall! The autumn season gives us a great excuse to help our children re-explore their neighborhoods using all their senses. On a family walk, talk about different smells in the air or how the temperature feels cooler than it did in the summer. Encourage young children to explore the colors and shapes of leaves. Pick up some leaves, sticks, rocks, and other nature finds along the way — you can use them for multiple art projects!
