Autumn Activities

Here are two great ideas for autumn scavenger hunts that work in some reading and alphabet practice too!

- Make a checklist for an autumn "treasure hunt". Idea found here. This is the list they used:

• something that is alive
• a leaf with jagged edges
• an interesting weed
• a dry leaf
• a leaf with smooth edges
• three acorns
• a seed from a tree
• a twig
• a pinecone
• a handful of grass
• a feather
• a branch with leaves on it
• a red leaf
• a yellow leaf
• a green leaf
• a smooth stone
• three little pebbles
• wild berries
• a leaf bud
• a piece of bark
• a tiny bit of moss

- Or you can take an ABC nature walk. Fill up a bag with interesting "materials" you find on your walk and use them to make the letters of the alphabet. Photograph the letters and use them in a project!
