A is for Apple and Autumn

As Autumn draws near a close, I thought I would update my blog and share a couple activities that we did several weeks back!!

Our family went to the corn maze and had a blast!! There were so many activities there for the kids and the weather was just perfect!

The boys loved picking their own pumpkins. A true sign of Autumn!!

We talked about the season fall and how leaves change colours and eventually fall off the trees! This ties in perfectly with their creative writing assignment this month!

Here is what my six year old had to say about being a little leaf on an oak tree. It is so exciting to hear your children tell a story. Why not write it out! It is amazing at hoe their little minds are working!!!

We spent a lot of time talking about what we are thankful for. I find that when we teach the boys about being thankful they realize how much they are really blessed with!
