Today’s Share It Saturday features are all about five senses activities for the fall! Each of the senses has three activities for playful fall learning for the kiddos.
Activities for the sense of sight
These ideas focus on children using their eyes to differentiate colors and light, as well as enjoy the sights fall has to offer!
