Autumn animals?!

[giraffesCantDanceInBrokenHeels]

Have made a huge painted tree, next week when its dry(er) going to collect leaves and stick some on the tree and some on the bottom having fallen off.

Can you think of anything else autumny I can add to the picture? My only thought was a hedgehog amongst the leaves at the bottom.

Squirrels storing acorns for the winter.

oooh yes how could I forget about poor squirrels?!

Spider's web?

And of course you can also do handprints in autumn colours and then cut them out to make leaves on the tree. Good for filling in any blank spots!

Foxes
Snails
Owls
Moles
are very autumn-y imo along with

Spiders
Squirrels
Hedgehogs

as you have mentioned

How about fruit (apples/Blackberries?)
Conkers & acorns?

badgers?

also autumn-related :

crab apple jelly on toast (from WI stall for eg)
blackberry and apple with flapjack crumble

not really animals though

We have hedgehogs using handprints, ladybirds made from foam ( circle and semi circle shapes)
Red, Green, Yellow and brown leaves, kites blowing in the wind, a lady with an inside out umbrella next to it, to show the wind.

We will add pumpkins and fireworks as the time goes on, and frost on the branches.
