Fall Story Time: October 7-8, 2019

Books:
Every Autumn Comes the Bear by Jim Arnosky
Fall Is Not Easy by Marty Kelley *
In the Middle of Fall by Kevin Henkes
Red Are the Apples by Marc Harshaman *
When Autumn Falls by Kelli Nidey

Craft: Paper Plate Leaf Wreath
The children were given a paper plate ring with a piece of yarn tied around it for a hanger.  They could glue small fall-colored die-cut leaves on the wreath.  They were also given 5 larger white die-cut leaves to color and glue on.  They could make it into a family wreath by writing the names of their family members on the larger leaves.

Extension Activities:
- Red Are the Apples talks about the different colors seen in the fall.  Play a game of I Spy using fall colors as you go on a fall walk.
- Create a leaf collage.  Collect various fallen leaves and glue them onto paper to make pictures.
