Autumn Bucket List

Over the summer we created a bucket list of activities we would like to get done. The list was then printed and kept on the fridge as a reminder for me and a good way for the children to pick activities when they were bored. Because the idea worked so well I have decided to do them for each season or festival which is important in our house. So here we go, I hope you find these idea useful too. 



  1. Leaf art- designing patterns on the leafs
  2. Leaf sun catchers
  3. Add to the Autumn discovery bottles collection
  4. Carve a family of pumpkins
  5. Decorate the porch for Halloween
  6. Make an Autumn tree display indoors
  7. Make Autumn mobiles
  8. Use coffee filter paper and water colours to make a leaf display
  9. Rolling conker art
  10. Put garden to sleep
  11. Make homes for the mini beast in the garden
  12. Plant sweet peas ready for next year 
  13. Bake pumpkin pie
  14. Create a Autumn discovery basket
  15. Take dried food products to the old peoples home
  16. Make animal collages out of leaves
  17. Make our own jar lanterns
  18. Make acorn people
  19. Create a Autumn fairy home
  20. Play in the fallen leaves
  21. Make toffee apples
  22. Make bonfire candy

  1. Awesome idea. I have a list of what we'd like to do over winter, but hadn't thought of properly organising it like this, and now we need to get an autumn list for sure.

  3. I find listing it like this helps me stay a little organised Mama Dragon. I'm terribly disorganised so any thing helps :0)

    I had never thought about doing them before Emma but when my sister in law got back from america she gave me the idea. Apparently they are every where over there.
