We all have our favorite fall activities– whether they stem from family traditions or from our favorite movies growing up. From pumpkin patches to apple picking to dressing in layers, this year Fall feels much different for all of us. It’s sad to have to continue to release our expectations for the year, but instead of dwelling in the sadness of it, this is an opportunity to make new traditions and memories. We came up with a list of 5 crowd favorite fall activities that you can safely do at home!

Huddle up your roommates & put together your favorite fall outfits. Go outside to your backyard & take pictures (we recommend at golden hour)! With the majority of us still WFH, most of our favorite fits are staying confined in our closets.. bring them out for this fun little photoshoot idea.

This ones for all our mama’s out there who are looking for creative ways to get the kiddos to trick-or-treat. Buy snack size candy & hide it all around the house. Make it like an egg hunt. Once all the candy is found, throw a movie night with your favorite Halloween movie (we suggest Halloweentown!) & get a family-sized sugar rush!
