Leaves, leaves, leaves! Fall or Autumn is all about the changing leaves - the colors, shapes and sounds of Fall leaves make it such a great topic to explore with toddles. While there are many ways to explore the Fall leaves a few simple ones include:
- taking a nature walk
- discussing the changing colors of the leaves
- listening to and discussing the sounds the leaves make when you step on them
- talking about the different shapes of the leaves
- exploring why the seasons change and what 'Fall' means
