Really inspiring, thank you. And chocolate leaves – definitely the kind of craft project I’ll be inspiring. And I think being able to write spooky messages on chalkboard pumpkins is genius for Halloween.

Deborah White says
This was a phenomenal post. I found myself inspired by all of the ideas and can’t wait to start using them (or variations of them) with my 15 month old daughter. I haven’t added an “art” component to my baby development program (you can read about the concepts at http://www.babydevelopmentnow.com ), but you have inspired me to start working on it. I think it’s a key component that I have missed. Thank you!

The Creative Connections for Kids link isn’t working for me? Sad day. I’m sure there are some great ideas in there!

Thanks Anna; what a fantastic post, it’s got me all inspired about autumnal play. We’ve had loads of fun this week with some of the autumn ideas and still so many more ideas still to do! We loved doing the sparkly pumpkin last year so looking forward to doing that again this year.
Also congratulations on winning the MAD blog of the year award – your blog is fantastic, I recommend it to so many people, you thoroughly deserve the award – well done! Thanks for all the hard work you put into the blog sharing your ideas and hosting It’s Playtime. Ellie xx
