Get lost in a corn maze! Pick your own pumpkin, then take it home for painting or carving. These are the things fall memories are made of!
Don't forget to wear sunscreen, closed-toe shoes, and plenty of layers so you can adjust to the ever-changing fall weather. Also, finding your way through a corn maze as the season progresses is easier since the path becomes more clearly tramped down by others.
Our Halloween Pinterest Board has some crazy cool ideas for pumpkin decorating and more!
