After enjoying the outdoors during the hot summer months, it’s no surprise that our automatic reaction to cool, fall weather can be to head indoors. The fall is such a beautiful time of year; it would be such a shame to spend it inside! Instead, I want to encourage you to get outside before the winter months really make us want to hibernate. To help motivate you, I’m sharing some of my favourite things to do outdoors during the fall, and my secrets that help keep me going.
Fall Walks:
There’s nothing better than going for a fall walk to take in all the experiences the season has to offer. From the smell of fresh air, to the colourful changing leaves, you’re sure to make this a staple in your weekly routine. My family loves to explore the Fundy trails every weekend, and step away from our busy schedule. With the change of season comes a change to our wardrobe. Switching from sandals to shoes and boots can be uncomfortable as our feet get used to different footwear. To help ease any discomfort, I wear my Dr. Scholl’s Comfort & Energy Massaging Gel Insoles, especially on longer walks to make sure I can comfortably keep moving without having to turn back early. These insoles are great for foot and leg fatigue. The gel waves massage the most sensitive areas of my foot.
Get Active!
If you’re looking for a little more activity, there are lots of options to keep you going during the fall. If you’re really adventurous. Join a fall sports league, or get your family out to play a new sport like soccer or softball. If sports aren’t your thing, check out fun outdoor activities happening in your area each week, like apple picking or going to a pumpkin patch. I know what you’re thinking, the aches and pains that come with physical activity can be a deterrent (even if it’s picking up a few pumpkins), especially if it affects your sleep. I keep ALEVE Nighttime on my nightstand so I don’t have to worry. ALEVE Nighttime relieves my muscle aches and pains for up to 12 hours, plus it has a sleep aid to help me fall asleep and stay asleep.
Seasonal Crafts:
I love letting my artistic side come out and create D.I.Y things for the house or crafts with my kids. Using bits of nature I find during the fall months (and on my fall walks). It’s amazing how creative we can get using colourful leaves, birch bark, or flowers. One of my favourite crafts to make is a fall frame using sticks, and gluing leaves, stones and dried flowers to the frame. Bonus points if you use it to frame a picture taken on one of your walks!
My family is always on the lookout for new fall activities to do together. What are your favourite things to do during the fall season?

Fall is my favourite time of the year and the best time for long walks, so it’s important my feet are comfy.
I do enjoy walking in the fall and looking at the beautiful leaves.
Wow, the gel looks very comfy.
I like how you live a positive lifestyle.
The trails in Fall are beautiful with all of the amber leaves, but unfortunately I live in a rainy city during this season.

Fall is my favourite season, I love everything about fall, all the colours, and everything pumpkin, and going for walks and picking apples!
something we need to do more is seasonal crafts. I always see such cool ideas and most are simple with few items you need and yet I still never create anything. I need to change this asap
