Fall Printable Books for Kids

October 16, 2023 by Sarah White Leave a Comment

I love little printable books for kids. There seem to be books on just about every theme you can think of that people have made, and they allow kids to practice a little bit of vocabulary/reading, number recognition, color recognition or other skills depending on the subject.

I usually throw a book or two into my activity roundups, but there are so many cute emergent reader books for fall that I thought it was worth having a whole post just for them.

Real Life at Home has a cute printable book about the colors of fall, which kids can color as they learn about red, orange, yellow, green, blue and other colors (the printable is seven pages and can be assembled into a mini book).

Primary Games has a printable mini book that’s also about colors, but in this case all the colors are related to fall leaves. Kids can color the leaves and practice writing the color words.

Yet another colors of fall printable book is available from Mrs. Jones’ Creation Station. You can fill up your coloring area with all of these super cute books to help kids learn their colors. This one also has space for writing the color word where kids can trace the letters.

You can find a couple of different fall-themed mini books at 1 plus 1 plus 1 equals 1. These books can be printed in color or black and white so kids can just read them or color and read.

And if you’re looking for a counting printable book with a little bit of a Halloween twist, check out this one from Crystal and Comp. It includes numbers from one to 10 and allows kids to see the digits, count and color the items on the page, and trace the number word as they go. Plus it’s really cute.

Learning about Snow

Not all of us live where there is a lot of snow in the winter (or even where it is winter as I write this, but it can still be fun to learn about snow, what it is and why it falls, so let’s get into it!

First, let’s talk snowflake science with The Homeschool Scientist. They have a free prinatble snowflake science less that’s more than 60 pages long and good for multiple grade levels. The blog post linked here includes some fun snow facts, information about how snowflakes form and why they are both six-sided and (probably) all different.

Expressive Monkey has a great post about how snowflakes are formed and why they have six arms, and also shows some of the pictures taken by W. A. Bentley in the 1920s (more on him below).

You can also grab a free snow facts worksheet with space for kids to draw their own unique snowflakes from Education.com. Simple Living Creative Learning also has a paid snow study resource set that includes things like different types of snowflakes, the snow cycle, symmetry drawing with snowflakes, tips for snow safety, snow-related vocabulary and more.

Homeschool Superfreak has another great page for learning about snowflakes, which includes information about Snowflake Bentley, a great book to read (and person to learn about). It includes lesson plan ideas and links to activities.

Speaking of activities, if you happen to have snow around you can make snow ice cream or maple candy, paint on snow or with snow, or do some snow science experiments. If you get a ton of snow you could maybe even build an igloo or snow structure.

If you don’t get snow you can learn about how animals keep warm in the snow and cold temperatures with this experiment from I Can Teach My Child. Frugal Fun for Boys and Girls can help you learn why big paws (or snowshoes) make it easier to walk in the snow. Or make a snowstorm in a jar like this one from MomBrite.
