Montessori-Inspired Fall Activities

By 16 Comments

There are so many wonderful themes and activities you can do with your child or class in the fall! I’ve put together a number of Montessori-inspired autumn units. My roundup posts contain lots of fabulous activities from around the blogosphere – both linked to in my post and on my theme-related Pinterest board.

If you want themed activities that aren’t fall-related, be sure to check out my Montessori-inspired unit studies + seasonal and holiday activities with LOTS and LOTS of additional themes! (Note: If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, I have Montessori-inspired spring themes and activities for you.)

      Thanks so much, Melissa! I have fun finding awesome ideas online! I think it’s always a bit magical to me, since I had to create materials by hand as a teacher without all these wonderful online printables and tutorials. 🙂

    “Activities for the prettiest season of all!” – unless its a quote it shouldn’t be in quotes, yes I get that its a scavenger hunt, but that quote is totally misleading as since there doesn’t seem to be a “Activities for the prettiest season of all!” but a whole bunch of posts for activities for this time of year – especially if you are looking for something specific like yesterday’s clue was a specific photo (not sure every finder realized it) but one could get it from the clue, now if this clue is a finder’s choice that should have been at least hinted at such as “Your favorite of Activities for the prettiest season of all!”, which would indicate a choice on the hunter’s part. So are you all able to revise a clue to be a little more specific – because most electronic scavenger hunts would at least take you closer to the page, since really one could potentially bounce around forever on a web site.

    This is so helpful to have this in one spot to reference over the next few months. I want to do apples right now but come back to leaves and pumpkins later in fall. I’ll be pinning and visiting this post again!! Thank you!
