Home Challenge/Project: Find a fun activity you can do as a family outside and point out different signs of Fall. Just a few ideas, take the kids to a corn maze, go to a local farm to pick a pumpkin, go to the North Logan Pumpkin Walk (this begins Friday 22nd). One of the best things to do to help your child’s vocabulary is just talk about the things you see. Sometimes we get so carried away in our own thoughts, or on the cell phone to take the time to just talk about the beautiful things around us. If you would like more information about these activities please let me know.
