Changing over the shelves

Halloween is over and I'm trying to get everything switched over.  This month is funny because I want to do some Thanksgiving themed crafts but Emma will have her birthday in the middle of the month and we'll be transforming the whole living room for her Eric Carle themed party--I am beyond excited!  So this morning I threw a few random but vaguely fall related trays together for the girls to find when they got home from school.  This afternoon they will discover the new art cabinet stuff I'm sure.

Foam apples with 1-10 and pom poms to practice counting. ABC Puzzle- shortly after this Ada asked for some containers and sorted the letters by color.

Matching shapes.  I added the little pieces of foam (it was packaging from something) so the blocks don't roll.

Some different leaves laminated.  We did some sorting by color and by shape.  I am hoping to expand this a bit with Ada.

 Ada really liked the roll and count activity with the Halloween stuff so I found this on Pinterest.  I think she will enjoy it- plus you get to use dabbo's!

I had printed these cutting strips last year and had a few left over and ready to go.  I plan to have the girls use the pieces for collage work closer to Thanksgiving.

Acorn stamp.  I just wrote acorn on a piece of brown foam for Ada to use as an example- she really enjoys writing these days.  Plus, the stamp pad smells like chocolate- WIN!
