Fall Seasonal Activities For Preschool & Kindergarten
Autumn is my favorite season…the cool, comfortable weather, no humidity, and the changing leaves encourage me to get outdoors and enjoy nature. Seasonal activities are always fun for kids – here are several that you can include in your lesson plans this fall.
For an introduction and to see how this post fits in the complete list of preschool lesson ideas, please see my post: Preschool Lesson Ideas For Homeschool – Plans For The Year. If you are so inclined and your child would enjoy it, consider compiling your child’s work and making a lapbook, book or portfolio for the Fall Season!
