Hello Autumn: The second book in a magical new children’s series about friendship, feelings and the seasons (Best Friends with Big Feelings)

Product Information

Jupiter from Jupiter Hadley–“Part of why I change through seasons is the season specific challenges like blogtober and blogmas, where if you participate you can end up joining into groups who are also taking part and motivating each other.”

Indeed, Summer 2020 has not been a text book kind of summer full of changes and challenges. So now, as we say goodbye to summer, we look forward to a healthy and safe autumn for all. More Thoughts On Summer Ellie from Ellie’s Little World–“I am definitely more motivated to blog over autumn/winter. I just feel like I have so many more ideas as they’re themed and in the summer I struggle to come up with ideas.” Personally I think blogging does change through out the year for me. I much prefer creating autumn and Christmas content which is why you’ll find a lot of that on this blog but not so much spring/summer content. I’m far more motivated to create content in the autumn too but that probably links to the fact that I’m writing content I really love too. I just have so many ideas for autumn and Christmas content. Start replacing summer flowers with fall flowers. As many of the summer plants are reaching maturity, now is a good time for pruning and replacing seasonal plants. As these closing summer days of August grow shorter, the scheduling of fall activities starts to fill our calendars. Weknow the summer temperatures are going to stay with us for a while longer. And, we are not ready to say goodbye to summer quite yet! But, while we are saying Goodbye Summer, Hello, Autumn is on our minds! Goodbye Summer 5 Ways To Say, “Goodbye Summer”

These autumn colouring sheets are a great way to make your children more familiar with the season of autumn and the kinds of things they can expect to see in autumn-time. What better way to celebrate Autumn than with this gorgeous Hello Autumn Poster? It features lovely illustrations of pumpkins, mushrooms, acorns and autumn leaves, along with gold sunflowers. Create your own art gallery in autumnal colours, starting with this stylish poster, perfect for a Harvest display. Kay from The Craft Room and Beyond–“I think summer has the least seasonal activity. You get quite a run from October, a gap from July-September and repeat. Summer content is usually pretty variable, 2020 is a hard one to use as an example though given how the year’s been!” Autumn is a great time of year with loads of seasonal changes and interesting weather. When we're not teaching our children about autumn, their little minds are occupied with the changes in scenery. So, this is a great time to use some themed activities for subjects like maths. This Autumn Addition Activity is perfect for helping children with number recognition and adding numbers together.

Stephanie from She Saw Style–“Autumn and winter are when I’m the most motivated to write. I feel inspired in autumn since it cools down and I can take more photos outside or I can decorate for the holidays. And winter has the holidays themselves to write on! So much more fun – and more campaigns are available.”

We also recommend some of our Autumn-themed activities and resources, like our Autumn Tree Cutting Skills Activity to further encourage your children to work on their fine motor skills. This EYFS All About Autumn PowerPoint, a lovely PowerPoint that teaches EYFS children about the type of weather to expect during autumn, what we should wear and what autumn is like around the world. If you’re looking for more resources like these autumn colouring sheets, you’re in the right place. We have plenty of autumn-themed activities and colouring activities to keep your children entertained and engaged. Claire from Our Favourite Jar–“I find summer content more difficult to create and it’s also generally quieter as well because of people holidays and having children at home. Some great content goes almost unnoticed as people are not around as often to read it. But I love using the summer to plan all of my autumn/winter content. It just feels like there are so many available topics to cover that I never struggle for ideas like I do at other times. My busiest months are October to December in terms of views as well. It goes hand in hand with my favourite time of year so maybe that’s why I find it easier to focus on and create content.”
