Pumpkins, colorful leaves and candy corn are all part of fall, as well as tons of Halloween activities, such as trick-or-treating or attending festivals. Your kids will likely spend more time indoors as the weather cools. Family time is great, but sometimes it’s hard to find something else to do than watch TV or play Monopoly.

Beautiful fall crafts will get the whole family in the autumn spirit. This collection of fall crafts for kids, while easy to make and still Pinterest-worthy, is filled with inspiration and lots of family fun.
