Fall 2025

By Ciarah.Kemp

A collection of the fall toddler activities we have been up to!

The yummiest smelling playdough we’ve ever made 🍎🥧✨ Our whole house smelled like fresh baked apple pie while my toddler played with this fall sensory setup for a solid 30 minutes (and said “apple” for the very first time 🥹).

Here’s the recipe:
• 1 cup flour
• ½ cup salt
• 1 cup water
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tbsp cream of tartar
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• Red food coloring (optional for “apples”)

I set it all up in our Ikea Flisat table with every apple-themed thing I could find—sticks + leaves from our crabapple tree, beans for seeds, pie molds + cutters, pipe cleaner “worms,” and even a little DIY playdough apple tree. We ended with apple storytime too 🍎📚

Such a simple recipe, but it turned into the sweetest fall memory 💛

Squishy, Puffy Caramel Apple Art! 🍎🤎✨

We had SO much fun making this toddler-friendly fall art! Macy loved painting her cardboard apples with puffy paint and adding all the festive sprinkles. Perfect for sensory play + seasonal creativity!

Here’s the puffy paint recipe:
🥄 1 part shaving cream
🥄 1 part Elmer’s glue
🥄 A dash of brown paint for that caramel look
Mix it all together and let your toddler go to town!

I used our BeaverBot to cut out the cardboard apple shapes (205GLW8O gets you 20% off).

Hot tip: Glue a popsicle stick to the back of your apple shapes for the full caramel apple experience! 😍

Who else is ready to get messy and festive? 🍂🍯

Halloween Books for Toddlers + Kids 👻📖
One of my favorite traditions is building a holiday + seasonal book collection for my toddler! These Halloween toddler books are the ones we’re reading on repeat right now—everything from Halloween board books to slightly longer Halloween picture books for storytime.

If you’re looking for fun, not-too-spooky reads for little ones, this Halloween kids book collection is such a good mix!

🍎✨ The cutest fall activity you need to try with your toddler!

How to make your own playroom apple orchard:

1️⃣ Cut a big tree shape out of cardboard
2️⃣ Paint the top green for the “leaves” 🌳
3️⃣ Tape it up to the wall
4️⃣ Grab some fake apples (Amazon has great ones!) — or use ball pit balls if you already have them 🍏🍎
5️⃣ Stick Velcro squares on the back of each apple + onto the tree (make sure they all match—tree gets soft sides, apples get rough, or vice versa)
6️⃣ Grab some little baskets and add color labels (I painted Hobby Lobby buckets red, yellow & green, but you can also just tape colored paper inside baskets you already own) 🎨
7️⃣ Let your toddler “pick” the apples + sort by color!

This turned into the sweetest toddler activity—mixing pretend play with fine motor skills + color recognition. And honestly, it might be even cuter than the real orchard! 💕

🍂 Definitely save this one if you haven’t tried it out already this fall!

🍎💥 The toddler art project that fizzes!
This fizzy apple painting mixes science + art for the coolest fall activity!

Here’s how to set it up:
1️⃣ Mix baking soda into your paint (not an exact science I just mixed it into a paste-like consistency)
2️⃣ Have your toddler paint the apple cutouts 🍏🎨
3️⃣ Give them a dropper (or spray bottle, etc.) with vinegar + watch the fizz + color spread! 💥

It’s simple, magical, and a great mix of fine motor + sensory play.

Would your little one love this? 🍎

The Halloween toy I wish I had as a kid 🎃✨

There’s just something magical about pretend play during Halloween… little ones mixing potions, waving their wand, and waiting to see what spell comes to life. 🪄👻

This @LIttle Tikes Magic Workshop makes it all feel real—with bubbling sounds, lights, spell cards, and even a frog that reacts when you pour a potion over him! 🐸💫

I can already tell this is going to be our most-played-with toy all spooky season. 🍂

Save this post so you don’t forget to grab it when Halloween rolls around! 🎃

Bringing a little fall magic into our playroom! 🍂🍁✨

I love decorating our playroom for the seasons, but I always try to choose pieces that double as play options! 🍁

🍂 @tenderleaf + @Tiny Land Official wooden toys that feel seasonal and fun to play with.
🎃 @Hobby Lobby bow + pumpkin garland to make it festive.
📚 A little bookshelf refresh with all our favorite fall books.
🧡 Our @Sarah’s Silks scarves in the prettiest autumn shades.
🎨 Our art wall — now full of last year’s fall projects and ready for more!

It’s such a cozy way to celebrate the season while making the space fun + inviting for Macy! 🥰

🌻 Toddler Art with a Twist! 🌻
For this activity, we dipped a real sunflower into washable paint and used it as a stamp. Each print came out different—perfect for exploring textures, patterns, and creativity through play. 🎨

✨ Benefits of this activity:
• Builds fine motor skills
• Encourages creativity & imagination
• Provides a rich sensory experience
• Introduces nature into art

Sometimes the best projects are the simplest! 💛

I’m planning to take Macy to the sunflower fields this week, so we are having a whole sunflower themed week over here! Stay tuned to see what else we get up to! 🌻

🌻✨ Sunflower Tea Party ✨🌻

We turned our IKEA Flisat table into the dreamiest little sunflower tea party today! One side was filled with sunny yellow water 💛 and the other had compartments full of fun tea party essentials—@Munchkin Inc. bath tea set, yellow glowing @glopals cubes, @Learning Resources Inc. dropper for pouring + scooping, and of course… real sunflowers and garden blooms 🌼☀️

Water play is always a toddler favorite, and this setup was the sweetest way to soak up some sunshine + sensory fun! 🫖🌻

🌻 Sunflower Oobleck! 🌻

I made this ooey-gooey yellow oobleck for my toddler, and…she. did. not. stop. playing! 😳 25 minutes straight—this is HUGE for my 19-month-old!

Here’s what we did:
✨ 2 cups cornstarch + 1 cup water (added more to get that perfect watery ooze)
✨ A few drops of yellow food coloring for sunshine vibes 🌞
✨ Fresh flowers from the garden + a couple sunflowers
✨ A sunflower scoop I snagged from Target last spring + a random plastic pot we had lying around

💡 Mom tip: You can tweak the water for your preferred texture!

Sensory play is messy, hilarious, and magical! My toddler couldn’t get enough, and honestly, neither could I. 🖐️💛

I’ll link everything in my LTK if you are looking! 👀

🌴📚 “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, will there be enough room?” ✨

We made our very own coconut tree block letter drop inspired by the book! 🌴🥥📚

I used an Amazon box + cardstock leaves to DIY this toddler activity, and it turned into the perfect mix of story retelling + hands-on play. My little one loved reading the book and then dropping letters down her own coconut tree. 🥥🌴🔠

Such a fun way to combine:
✅ Letter recognition
✅ Fine motor skills
✅ Storytelling through play

Would your toddler love this too? 🌴💛

🌴📚 Back-to-school sensory play idea! Inspired by Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, I set up a coconut tree in our sensory bin, hid felt letters under beans, and let my toddler scoop, dump, and retell the story as the letters climb the tree. Such a fun way to practice letter recognition, storytelling, and fine motor skills—all through play! 🥰

Pretty soon we will be starting up ECFE classes again with Macy and I can’t believe she won’t be in the baby class anymore 🥹 Such a big girl in the toddler class where by the end of the year we will do some time separate, can’t believe how quickly it all goes! 🥺

I’ll have our favorite @inspiremyplay sensory bin and the chicka chicka boom boom tree linked in my LTK if you want to try this one out yourself!

If you have babies and/toddlers do you do ECFE classes with them? 💛
