15 Fall Family Activities

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Famous Footwear. All opinions are 100% mine.

15-fall-family-activitiesAhh! I still cannot believe that it is already fall. I feel like I blinked and summer is over, but I can’t say that i’m super sad about it. I love the fall season and all of the fun events that come with it. I have been daydreaming about fall weather, pumpkins, Halloween, Thanksgiving and even Christmas! Not to mention, I cannot wait to find out the gender of our sweet baby soon. I am always sad to say bye to pool days, but I am confidently moving into fall.

 

img_9577This fall, I am strapping on my Women’s Flex 2016 RN Running Shoes from Famous Footwear, because I know it is going to be a busy season. With a baby in the oven and a semi-toddler all over the place, we are in for lots of fun. I really want to do a lot of fall activities this year since Brooke is older. She is at such an exploratory age right now and I love watching her learn. Here are 15 fall family activities I am looking forward to:

 

img_9574Pumpkin Patch

If you don’t have a pumpkin patch near you, you can even just all go pick out your own pumpkins.

 

Family Walks

This is one of my favorites. The weather is so nice in fall and I just love having evening family walks around the neighborhood. We did this with Brooke last year and she loved it!

 

Pumpkin Painting

I am looking forward to letting Brooke paint on a pumpkin. I’m sure it will be a big mess, but she will have a blast.

 

Trick Or Treating

I am thinking maybe a mini version this year because Brooke isn’t quite old enough, but I think she will enjoy dressing up and getting a few special treats.

Think out of the box, maybe a craft with leaves or something of that nature!

 

Hayride or Festival

There are so many great festivals and events going on during this season, find one near you.

 

Fall Family Pictures

We just took our fall family pictures, so I can check that one off of the list! I love doing that every year.

 

Jump in Leaves

There is nothing better than playing in a big pile of leaves when you are little.

 

Make Candy Apples

I think Brooke will love this as well. Lets face it, she loves anything that involves food. I am thinking I will cut the apple into pieces and then make candy apple pieces just her size.

 

Visit Farm Animals

Think petting zoo. It will be such a fun day!

 

Visit a new playground

Find a new playground in your area and spend some time exploring and swinging!

 

Make Pumpkin Pie or Muffins or Cake

Really, pumpkin anything.

 

Cook S’mores

Fire. Blanket. S’mores.

 

Read outside

Brooke loves to read all of her books right now, so I think this will be a really fun outside activity.

 

Movie Night with a fall or Halloween theme

I love movie nights and halloween movies are awesome!

 

img_9573We are in for a busy fall, but I am so excited for all the fun family activities. I left it off the “list”, but finding out the gender of our little babe and announcing it to everyone will be a fall activity for sure! With such a busy season in front of us, I am going to soak in every moment of these new beginnings and I am super thankful for Famous Footwear being there to outfit our family with right shoes for the season. Brooke’s converses are perfect and my tennis shoes will be on repeat to get me through the busy times!

    We definitely like doing fall crafts in our house. I also like going on walks in my Asics shoes.
