Looking for some things to do with your family this fall? Here are some of our favorite ideas,
- Bonfires

- Visit museums or other historical places
- Make a movie theater in the backyard
- Make Thanksgiving cards to send to family and friends
- Sit on the porch with hot cocoa and watch the sunset

- Stargazing (you can find constellation print outs online)

- Go trail riding
- Begin delving into the history of Thanksgiving with your family (Here is a great book)
- Put together a Thanksgiving production (this would be especially fun if you live near a lot of family. Just round up all the cousins and put together a short play to be performed when the family gathers for Thanksgiving)

- Go to a pumpkin farm
