Why read Fall with your child
This is a pointing and naming book for toddlers. Read one short line per page, point at the picture, and ask your child what they see outside. The season order is the lesson: summer, then fall, then winter. Talk about leaves changing color, farmers harvesting crops, and the two big fall holidays, Halloween and Thanksgiving, that children already know. End by asking which fall thing your child likes best: the leaves, the harvest, Halloween, or Thanksgiving.
