FABULOUS FALL ... HERE WE GO!

Yellow, orange, red ... ready or not, here comes the fall foliage. Even with our favorite Halloween holiday weeks away, we can’t help but be excited by all the festivities planned with your family in mind. This season, we have high hopes for a back to normal life as you will find an abundance of Jersey vanues and events scheduled on our online calendars...from spooky attractions, farm activities, festivals to foliage walks, food trucks and fabulous fall exhibits. Here are a few ideas: • Take a walk through the changing foliage and snap a few pics of the scenery.

• Get lost in – and hopefully figure a way out of the crazy fun mazes at one of several NJ farms, then grab a bucket for a U Pick pumpkin hunt.

• Spend the day at a food truck festival and enjoy rides and yummy treats.

• Dress up in your favorite costume and enter a Halloween Costume Contest • Visit the zoo, aquarium or a bird sanctuary and watch as birds fly off on their annual Fall Migration.

• Trick or treat around your neighborhood, or wander around your town and local shops.

• Take quick weekend day trips or an overnight getaway.

Visit www.njkidsonline.com for our ultimate lists of things to do and use us as your guide to seek out your next big adventure, kid’s program or event.
