Free Printable: 30 Fall Activities for Kids and Families Post Preview: Make autumn exciting this year with a free printable of fall activities for kids and families. How many activities will you complete?
Fall offers up so many fun activities for kids and families. It’s a unique time of year, with its own special visuals and tastes. Eating a caramel apple during the spring just wouldn’t quite be the same.
One of our favorite fall activities has been to go camping. While we don’t do it every year, we have rented a family cabin in a state park five or six times during the fall. It has always been fun, and we treasure those times.
Of course, I didn’t feel like I was going to treasure it when the kids were younger and Eric and I were peddling them all around the lake in a paddleboat. Ha! We were glad when they got older and we got two paddleboats instead and made one kid help a parent. It was a lot easier!
To celebrate the season and help you do some fun things with your kids, I have a brand new Free Printable Fall Activities for Kids and Families! It features 30 fun fall activities for people of all ages.
Note: The 30 Fall Activities free printable is available farther down in the post.

Free Printable Fall Activities for Kids and Families
You can decide the best way to use this printable if you’re using it with your family or your class. You can try to do all (or most) of the things in a one month period since it’s 30 activities. Or, you can spread it out and just try to do most or all of the activities sometime this fall.
Personally, I think we put ourselves under a lot of pressure. So, if it was me, I would look at it just as printable fall activities to be done anytime in the fall. Not all at once.
If you just shoot for doing them all during the fall, then you can tackle more than one in one day and then sometimes have a few days without doing one.
Make this enjoyable. These printable fall activities for kids and families should be fun, not a chore. So, do what works best for you and your family.
There are ideas on the list that can be done by all ages. Plus, there are a lot of different types of fall activities on the printable. So there’s a little something for everyone.

In less than a month’s time in our area, we could enjoy music and art under the stars, eat at an apple and popcorn festival, check out a reenactment of life in the 1700s for French and Native American fur traders, and celebrate the richness of other cultures at a global festival.
