At the start of Summer vacation, I made this Summer Fun checklist and it was a big hit. It gave the kids something to be excited about and it gave us inspiration when we had nothing to do. Although we don't have nearly the amount of free time now that school and sports have started, there's still a bunch of fall-themed activities we could put on a Fall Fun checklist.
Just as with the Summer list, I simply wrote down a list of ideas on some patterned paper, added a few embellishments, and put it in a frame. We'll use a dry erase marker to check off the fun things we do throughout the Fall season.
Here's our list (some are fall-related, others are just fun things we can do over the next few months)

| It's not as long as our Summer list, but the kids were still excited to see it. |

The list looks pleasant to look at and fun to do :)
This is adorable! What a fun fall you and your kids are going to have :)
Love it. Just created on for my boys!!!
Great list and a really cute way to present it for your family! You're all in for a lot of fun this fall!
I don't have kids, but I love this idea! how cool to have plans for fall all lined up
{Love that there's some mama exclusive things in that list!}
I am going to do this at every season now. And share it. Hope you are well, Laura!
oops. and I pinned you to my fall board.
Laura,
Your Fall Checklist is so adorable. I love the way you have it displayed too. Using a dry-erase marker is a smart idea, that way you can use again next year. I'll have to make one for my family. Thanks for sharing.
I host a link party, "Sundae Shake Up", and would love for you to stop by and share this with my girls. I'll bet they'd like to see this creative idea too.

So loving this idea! I saw this done for Summer too, but totally didn't think about doing it for fall! Thanks so much!
Another great idea! Thanks again for stopping by The Sunday Showcase!
I found your post through the Sunday Showcase. I love your list and the way you presented it! I posted my fall list as well. We have a few of the same things. I would have definitely added the football game to mine, had I seen this earlier. My little boy is playing soccer, but all of a sudden has a fascination with football. He would love that. We'll have to do it anyways. :) Thank you for sharing.
What a great post. Thanks for linking up to Things I've Done Thursday!!

What fun! I'll have to borrow some of these activity ideas.
That is such a great idea. Much easier to go to the list and pick something then try and think something up spur of the moment. Visiting from Momma's Kinda Crafty.

Thanks so much for the fun idea!!!
Laura, just wanted to let you know I ended up making a printable for this over on my website! I made mention of you for giving me the idea! Thanks again!

Very cute idea! The kids will like this. We can include all their favorite seasonal activities.

Those are pretty good ideas - and I have to agree 100%. Fun vacations don't necessarily have to be expensive and require a lot of traveling. Just hopping out the door to the backyard can be as much fun as any trip.
