Our fall has been filled with so much fun and laughter. We’ve enjoyed watching the seasons change and making new friends at preschool! These are some of our fall highlights.

We celebrated the harvest season with several cooking projects, including making apple cider, apple sauce, and apple crisp (apples galore)! 

We also made a large debris shelter. The preschoolers had a blast collecting leaves and sticks to make the shelter. They absolutely love playing inside it and using it as a special hiding spot.

Trillium Camp has been visited by several critters this fall. We’ve practiced our fox walking skills and learned how to patiently watch creatures.  The preschoolers have enjoyed admiring the beauty of these curious animals.

Speaking of critters, we made “pumpkin feeders” and placed them around Trillium Camp. The preschoolers love checking the pumpkins each morning to see if there’s any evidence of animals visiting. 

Our preschoolers have made so many new friends this fall! They love playing and discovering new mysteries together.
