Outdoor fall activities

Nature = best playground!

A forest walk during fall is a magical experience. Trees dress up in their most beautiful colors, offering a breathtaking spectacle. Organizing a hike with friends not only stretches your legs but also lets you take memorable photos for social media.

To make the outing even more fun, you can start a herbarium and begin collecting the leaves you find most beautiful or intriguing! Tutorial coming up in the second part of the article! 👀

Apple and pumpkin picking

Nothing beats a trip to the orchard or farm to get into the fall mood. Picking apples and choosing your Halloween pumpkin are must-do activities. Plus, it allows you to bring home ingredients for delicious pies or Halloween decorations.

Creative fall activities

Original pumpkin decorating

This year, it’s time to forget basic pumpkins! Organizing a decoration contest stimulates creativity. Participants can transform their pumpkins into unique works of art, whether by painting or carving them. It’s a fun activity that leads to very amusing creations!

Creating an autumn herbarium

Collecting colorful leaves, small branches, and berries during walks allows you to create an autumn herbarium. Once the elements are collected, just let them dry between book pages or in newspaper.

Then, glue these leaves in a notebook and add drawings, colors, or quotes next to each element to make your herbarium unique and personal. Let your creativity run wild!

Materials needed:

• A notebook or sketchbook
• Colorful leaves, small branches, and berries
• A heavy book or leaf press (to dry the elements)
• Glue
• Pens or pencils for drawings and quotes

Cozy fall activities

Because it’s often gloomy outside

Halloween movie night with friends

When the weather turns gloomy, nothing beats a good movie night under a blanket. Choosing movies that are a bit scary (but not too much) allows for a good time while sharing a few frights with friends. Preparing popcorn and hot drinks makes this activity even more enjoyable.
