Are you and your kids going to spend fall break at home? Are you looking for activities to keep you all busy? Here is a fun collection of autumn crafts to do with your children in the coming months of this season.

1 . Painted Pinecone Turkeys

This craft requires only a few items, one of which you can likely find on the sidewalks of your own neighborhood! The kids are guaranteed to love it. 

2 .  Pumpkin Volcano

Not only is this activity a festive activity, it is also an easy science experiment! Your kiddos will have a blast with this, all while learning about chemistry.

3 . Beaded Harvest Corn

A great way to teach children about history is to provide interactive activities that will help them love learning! Making beaded harvest corn is a wonderful crossover between a cute craft and an opportunity to learn about the origin of Thanksgiving. 

4 . Autumn Animal Collages

Are you tired of raking up leaves without putting them to use for something? Grab a handful from your pile in the backyard and gather your kids. This activity gives them an opportunity to be creative, all while recycling nature’s beauty!

5 . Pressed Leaf Bookmarks

If you have a reader in your family, and a few extra leaves in the yard, this do-it-yourself is for you. Pressing leaves and making aesthetic bookmarks are such a great way to have creative fun this fall!
