Fall Break Family Days

Fall Break Family Days

Make Belle Meade your fall break headquarters. Every weekday of the week, we’re opening up the carriage house for a morning of hands-on crafts, science experiments, and seasonal fun — with a new theme each day!

Daily Themes

• Monday, Oct. 12 — Leaf Day. Baking soda painted leaves, DIY paper leaf garlands, magnolia leaf painting, and leaf people.
• Tuesday, Oct. 13 — Fall Vegetable Day. A dissolving candy pumpkin experiment, pumpkin twister, pumpkin salt art, and Q-tip corn painting.
• Wednesday, Oct. 14 — Apple Day. Apple life cycle and apple core crafts, fall-scented playdough, and a make-your-own apple pie sensory bin.
• Thursday, Oct. 15 — Fall Animals Day. Paper bag owls, squirrel and acorn sewing cards, build-your-own fox, and a hedgehog science experiment.
• Friday, Oct. 16 — Halloween Day. Paper bag cats, Halloween postcards, flying paper cup witches, and candy corn people.

All Week Long

Drop into the reading nook for fall favorites, take on a new themed scavenger hunt each day (stickers and temporary tattoos for every finisher), settle in at the coloring station with seasonal pages, word searches, and mazes, and grab popcorn and lemonade from the snack bar.

Please note: Thursday, October 15 activities will be held in the tent area.
