Favorite falltime activities!

summer and autumn are definitely the girls favorite seasons! due to the fact that we spend A LOT of time outdoors. festivals, sports, events, we do it all. I'm pretty sure summer likes the fall a lot more because its not as hot here in Missouri. I thought I would share some of our favorite fall time activities that kids of all ages can enjoy.

1: pumpkin patch- there are so many different pumpkin patches during September and October that it can be hard to pick just one. but narrow your list down and toss a coin because they all are pretty much the same. however if you can find one that has rides and games then the little ones will especially enjoy themselves.

2: apple picking- every year we go to eckerts to pick apples and it never fails to impress. (see the next post for details )

3: festivals - I cant specifically point on one festival because during autumn there are so many. seriously every weekend there is a festival that you could attend in St. louis/St. Charles Missouri. so take your pick! taste of St. louis, bbq festival, German fest, October fest, and the list goes on.

4: camping- ok the idea of camping I should say! because when you actually go camping with children you are in for a treat. either they will love it or hate it. I would definitely say go camping at the end of summer or middle of autumn because its not as hot as July. if the little ones are content then you can sit around the fire roasting marshmallows and telling stories and the early morning hiking and enjoying the beautiful trees as they change colors from green to bright yellow, vibrant orange, and deep red and purple leaves.

5 : and last but not least is my go to when all else fails............the park! 60 degree weather, light jacket, they can play all day until they finally fall asleep.
