31 Days Has October: 2009 Edition


October is coming! We love October around here. I think it might be our favorite month of the year. Remember last year how we did 31 Days of October? Basically we did a Halloween/Fall themed activity every day of the month. It was a lot of fun! Because I had it planned out ahead of time we actually did most of the activities. So I decided it'd be fun to do it again. Here is the 2009 edition of 31 Days of October. I'm posting this a couple of days ahead of time in case you want to do it with us and need to stock up on a few supplies. I tried to plan the activities that I could do with stuff I already have around the house or very inexpensive. Some of the activities are the same as last year because they are tradition around here. But there are also some fun new activities to try! Most of the activities are linked to the website where I found directions. I'd love to hear about it if you do some (or all!) of these.

I love this idea, I'll have to bookmark this idea and use it next year when the twins are a little older.

We've done glitter pumpkins for a few years now - I'm not brave enough to do it with the kids but I love having them in the house for the entire season. I'm sure we'll be borrowing lots of ideas from you this year!
