Rake up a huge pile of leaves and jump in them, kids loved playing in leaves!
Check out some local farms and see what they offer for the fall season. One near us has a haunted barn, corn maze, wagon rides and apple and pumpkin picking. Many farms have Halloween activities.
Go for a nature hike/walk, enjoy the view and gather leaves, pinecones, etc... Your kids can make leaf rubbings, or a picture using the leaves.
You can also make pinecone turkeys.
Here's a link to directions for the turkeys:

Here are some fun craft ideas you can do with apples:
Apple Dolls- Here are the steps:
1. To start, choose an apple for the doll's head; the bigger the better--the carved fruit will shrink to about two thirds its original size. Red Delicious works especially well, but any variety will do.
2. Peel and core the apple. Carve a face on one side,using the tip of a potato peeler to hollow out deep-set eyes and a paring knife to make a slit for a smile or a frown. For a nose, incise a triangle that extends from between the eyes toward the mouth. Ambitious carvers can add ears, dimples and extra facial creases. Store the carved apple in a dry spot until it shrinks. (You can hasten the wrinkling process by using a dehydrator.)
3. Once the head is dry, use colored markers or water-based paints to enhance the eyes, lips and rosy cheeks
4. To make the body, cut the base off the plastic bottle. Plug the top with a cork to serve as the doll's neck. Wrap the fabric around the body so that it extends beyond the top and the bottom of the bottle. Secure the fabric around the bottleneck with a rubber band and then fold the cloth down. Tuck excess cloth at the base into the bottle. Now top off the doll by gently pushing the cored apple down onto the cork.
Here are the materials needed;
Apple
Vegetable peeler
Paring knife
Colored markers or paint
Wool yarn
Scissors
16-ounce plastic bottle
Bottle cork
Fabric scraps
Rubber band
Apple Key Chain
Instructions-

Go for picnics at local parks. If there are ducks, take bread or popcorn along and let the kids feed them. My son used to love doing this when he was small.
Ride bikes with the kids. Bike riding is an activity most kids really enjoy and riding with the parents makes it even more fun for small children.
Any activity where you can enjoy the outdoors while spending time together is great during the fall because the weather is so nice. I hope y'all have a great time!
