Go on a Hayride
Hayrides are a fantastic way to spend time with family and friends and experience different aspects of nature. The best hayrides can be found in the countryside or at a nearby pumpkin patch! Hayrides are the quintessential part of fall. Grab your apple cider, or hot chocolate after the hayride, and share some laughter with those around you.
Decorate Your Home

Go on a Scavenger Hunt
Another way to get in the spirit of things is to go on a scavenger hunt. This is a great idea for getting the family together, and it’s also a lot of fun!

Carve Pumpkins
Pumpkins are a classic part of Halloween. They can be used to make decorations or even as part of a fun pumpkin carving contest. If you have younger kids, you can make it easier by starting with a small pumpkin and letting them work in teams to come up with their designs.
Decide on a Halloween costume
