Today's Topic: Fall Harvest

This morning we decided to go buy our apples for the projects we have planned for the first two weeks of the month!



I had hoped to go PICK apples but I am learning things in this process right along with Evan. Apples have already been picked (for the most part) and the picking farms around here are only open for pumpkin picking now!


We went to Sprouts to take advantage of a good sale on apples.


We picked up enough Jonathan's to make our applesauce and caramel apples. We also picked up about seven other varieties for an apple tasting and a few small fuji's for apple stamping/painting.


Our project for today is to read about Fall Harvest and make our Fall lapbook! I got this idea from A Glimpse of Sonshine

I cut out all the shapes and Evan will glue them in the tri-fold book as we talk about them. We have lots of other stuff planned...stay tuned!

I just wanted to check in on what we've been doing. I posted about it here. http://milkallergymom.blogspot.com/2008/10/preschool.html

Yeah, we started a little early...like the day you started this blog...so we've gotten quite a bit done already. Lovin' it!

if you haven't added a honeycrisp apple to your tasting party, run out and get one now! It is the BEST IMHO!! Expensive, but in season..get just one and savor every bite!

sounds like you are having some fun!

Thanks for the linky love. :) However, the link in the post doesn't work because you added an "a" to the front of the link.
