See that guy above? His name is Fergus Femur and he’s our new fall friend. We have had so much fun playing with Fergus. We take turns hiding him in various spots and hilarity ensues!
As you can guess, our family loves to read seasonal titles, enjoy holiday-themed play with Spielgaben, and play holiday-themed games.
Today, I am sharing some of our favorite play ideas, picture books, and gameschooling tips with you!
The Best Halloween Books for Your Homeschool

Our family’s favorite Halloween books
I’ve included many of our family’s favorite Halloween picture books here, but I’ve also included two volumes that I remember from childhood.
