Fun Fall Ideas:
Make one batch of playdough for each autumn color. Store individually in plastic wrap or bags.
Create a playdough center with items such as pinecones, acorns, cinnamon sticks, leaves, pumpkin seeds, googly eyes, pipe cleaners, black beans, and beads. Using parent discretion with small items for kids under the age of 3. Kids can make pumpkins, spiders, trees, press leaves, make-believe food items, and more!
