Fall Nature Table with a Halloween Twist!

"C" has been spending a lot of time
rearranging and playing with the
 fall "nature" table lately. 


Note: Nature is in quotations because
we seem to add a lot of toys
and plastic -- eek! to our "Nature" table!!
Oh well, the point of the table is for it
 to belong to the girls, 
not me, 
and 
for them to make it their own.


Even though our table is inspired by the 
Waldorf tradition of a seasonal nature table 
(or corner) we do what works for our family.


That means we have a combination of
natural, homemade, 
and man-made (even plastic!) 
goodies on our table. 

We have a Halloween,
Pumpkin,
Acorn
Leaves,
Squirrel 
theme going on!


"C" also loves our tiny Haunted House
on our front table. 

I love listening to the little voices
she gives the "characters" 
When I bought that tiny house
(years ago) 
I had hoped, 
but really had no idea,
that my kids would enjoy playing
with it and create 
fond fall memories!



Do you have any favorite
fall decorations
that have turned into 
a tradition for your family?


Happy Fall!

Fondly,
pink and green mama,

My nephews attend a Waldorf school, back in Holland. My sister always has a seasonable table set up. Since I moved to the US, I had forgotten all it. Thanks for returning the memory to me. I am going to make one, too!
