What fun fall activities do you want to do with your kids this season?
Making a Fall Fun Activity Tree is a cute way to remember the fall activities you want to do.
You’ll need:
- Cardboard for the background and the tree trunk
- Construction paper for the leaves
- Blu-tac or other poster hanging putty
- Markers
- Ideas for fun fall activities 😉
Color your background any way you like.
Draw a tree shape on one piece of cardboard and cut it out. This can be as simple as a Y shape with a couple extra arms sticking out. Glue your tree to the background.
Make a list of fall activities. I have a list of 10 fun backyard fall activities here.
Cut out construction paper leaves. You can find a leaf template here if you like.
Write each activity on a leaf and stick the leaves to the tree with your blu-tac.
Each time we do something we take off a leaf and stick it under the tree.
Some of the fall activities we love include:
- Making acorn crafts – Here are acorn candle holders and Red Ted Art has acorn animals, plus many more fall craft ideas.
- Finding a leaf rainbow – perfect fall nature walk activity.
Happy Fall Fun to You!
What a lovely activity! So cute. Love that little owl too.
Thanks for the acorn animals mention!
You’re welcome. I love those cute little acorn creations of yours. All of my kids are at the right age to really enjoy making things like that right now.
I’ve only recently discovered your blog and I love it. Without a doubt we’ll be making our own tree this weekend…
alissa, it’s pamela (in flagstaff). i love this idea! i am totally going to attempt it this week. and then maybe transform it to a thankfulness tree around thanksgiving. i love your website, and encouragements, and ideas. thanks for sharing.
I am so not a crafty mama, but my four-year-old and I had a blast doing this together. It really helped me get excited for fall (I looove summer) and it helped me realize my family has a lot of wonderful fall traditions already. I was amazed at how many things my daughter remembered we have done in the fall in the past. I hope to make this a quarterly activity – we can come up with winter, spring and summer scenes too. Thanks for the great idea!
Yay!! So great to hear Annie! I too love summer and it makes a very positive difference to me to have a bunch of fun fall activities to look forward to.
