It’s hard to believe, but summer is coming to an end! While you sadly say farewell to relaxing days at the pool, you can also happily avoid the more sweltering days. Autumn brings so many creative and diverse activities that you can do with your children in the comfort of your Weddington home for sale. Peruse these home based fall activities for kids, and start to plan for family craft time and hot apple cider!

 

Visit a Charlotte Farm then Enjoy Your Bounty at Home

There are several farms near Charlotte where you can pick your own apples and pumpkins! If you are interested in a Ballantyne home for sale, Hall Family Farm is close by. Enjoy their 5 acre corn maze, pumpkin picking, musical hay ride, and many more fun activities for kids.

 

If you’re set on apple picking, visit Carrigan Farm. It features 130 acres and is about 40 minutes from Charlotte. They grow red and golden delicious apples just waiting to be picked!

 

At home, carve the pumpkins with your kids and bake the pumpkin seeds for a healthy and yummy snack. Bake an apple pie together or make caramel apples for an especially sweet treat!

 

Craft Ideas Galore

There are an endless number of fall themed craft ideas to choose from. For example, try your hand at autumn leaf art! Simply take a basketful of autumn leaves (preferably pressed) and spread them out across the table in a house for sale in Marvin. The more vibrant the colors, the better!

 

All you need are metallic markers and a water based sealant for a glossy finish. Let your kids draw creative designs and pictures on the leaves. To showcase your family artwork, gather the finished leaves and create garlands to hang above your dining room table for a seasonal flair.

 

For Golf Enthusiasts

If you are a parent who loves to play golf near a Lake Norman house for sale, try pumpkin golf with your kids!

 

Take a few pumpkins you carved together and make the mouths extra wide. Place a piece of cardboard into the mouth so that a ramp is created. Simply try to putt the golf ball into the pumpkin.
