Autumn Leaves & Pumpkin Time!

Haddy is counting the pumpkins! I attached them to my fingers with double-stick tape while we recited "5 Little Pumpkins Sitting on a Gate."  A video can be found here.
We used Mama's pie-crust leaf cutters to make some really neat fall shapes in our play doh!
We marble-painted some leaves on a piece of paper!
After they were dry, I cut them out, threw them in the air, & sang "Autumn leaves are falling down, falling down, falling down, Autumn leaves are falling down, red and yellow, orange and brown" to the tune of London Bridges!  She kept running around picking up the leaves to bring back to me saying, "MORE, MORE!"
We painted with mums as our paintbrush!
It was a fun sensory activity, as well as a great way to practice color mixing!
The end result was a really neat artwork with little pieces of petals stuck onto the paint!
Baby C loves to play with the pumpkin while her sister paints!
