Crunching leaves....

As Fall is now in full swing , playing outdoors among the leaves, pumpkins and cornstalks seems like the greatest thing in the world to do. The princes and princess of the kingdom yesterday enjoyed 'crunching the leaves' for a bit. We took all the kids outside in the late afternoon sun to walk on the leaves and hear the sound it made. Funny how the simplest things resonate so strongly with children. They loved it. We learned about leaves and why they change color and fall from their tree 'homes' at this time of year. An all-around great Fall afternoon activity.
