I love the fall. I love apple season! We used to live less than 5 minutes from an apple farm, and it was so much fun to go and pick our own apples! Where we live now, there are still plenty of farms, they’re just not 5 minutes away 🙂 I also really enjoy visiting farmers markets to support farmers and get an excellent selection of fresh fruits & veggies, homemade goods, etc. When the kids were small, we had SO MUCH FUN doing kids crafts at home. I love babysitting for friends with small kids so we can make crafts together too. Crafts are a fun way to work on shapes, colors, cutting and counting – and the kids may not even realize they’re learning! I hope you’ll give it a try with this simple Apple craft for kids, created from wooden craft sticks.
