Autumn Equinox

We were trying to come up with some last minute, budget-friendly (free!) things for the boys to do for the autumn equinox.

I cut some vellum to fit around some old glass jars and then Shmoo and Loo used it to do leaf rubbings (love the Stockmar block crayons... such gorgeous colours and so nice to work with). Of course, once again I forgot to take photos of them doing it.. Shmoo's is on the left, then Loo's, then the Bean's (I did Beanie's for him - he's still at the age where he just wants to eat or rip everything!).

Popped a tealight in each one and we had them on the table during dinner. We were also going to scrounge around for some change to buy some marshmallows to toast over a fire but the weather hasn't been cooperating so we might do that for the winter solstice instead.
