Fall Family Bucket List Craft - Plan For A Fun-Filled Season With The Kids!


This Fall Family Bucket List Craft is a great way to plan for a fun filled season with the kids, and it's so incredibly simple to put together.

Hi there, friends! Although the summer is quickly coming to a close, that doesn't mean that the fun has to end. We are gearing up for a season full of memory making with the kids, and we started with this Fall Family Bucket List Craft. It only cost $2 to assemble, and the kids had so much fun tossing their ideas into the bucket! I can't wait to start pulling out a few ideas each week to do with the kids. This year, I've been working on mindfulness; being fully present in the moment, without distraction. This is such a good way to be mindful and planful moving into a new season, with plenty of unplugged family time on the schedule.

Read on for my simple tutorial, and a few idea starters to add to your Family Fall Bucket List, below.
