Fall or winter, I’m not sure which I’m in. What I do know is that I love the poem you chose. You have a wonderful way with words Shannon – Dancing Leaves (so eloquent).

When the leaves began to fall I was feeling sad and not looking forward to winter, but now the trees look so elegant, so beautiful and majestic. I feel blessed rather than sad.

Yeah! The waldorf early childhood books have lots of wonderful rhymes for small children- and they are all so fun and nature oriented!

I have a child convinced that as soon as the last leaf in our yard falls it will snow. No idea where that came from.

Such beautiful red leaves in your picture.

I love that you make wishes for each leaf that you catch! I’m so glad that you shared this poem. I was just thinking today about looking for an autumn poem for my toddler, who loves to rhyme- great timing!

glad you found it! I love the season changes too. For a while, the fall kind of got me down, but now I am just enjoying every minute of this change… being with kids through the experience really has changed my perspective.
