I LOVE OCTOBER!!!
The number one reason being HALLOWEEN!! I also love the cooler weather, the changing colors, the migrating animals, and bringing out my handknits!! In honor of this wonderful month, I'm sharing a list of (mostly) educational & fun fall activities compiled in part by my teacher friend and in part by myself. Be sure to check the details for each event as some require prior registration.
Enjoy!!
