Autumn Fun for Toddlers & Young Learners | ESL Story & Hands-On Activities

Bring autumn into your English lessons with a playful, hands-on resource created especially for **toddlers and young kindergarten learners**.

Created by Chiara Corti in collaboration with My ESL World, this package introduces young children to autumn through simple language, colourful visuals, storytelling, movement and hands-on play.

Children explore **autumn leaves, colours, big and small, numbers 1–3, weather, shapes, autumn vocabulary and simple prepositions** through activities designed for very young English learners.

The package also includes **The Greedy Squirrel**, a simple autumn story that brings the vocabulary together. Children follow a hungry squirrel as he collects autumn food in his basket and eventually discovers the importance of sharing.

**The package includes:**

• Colourful autumn leaf manipulatives
• Big and small concept practice
• Numbers 1–3
• Colour and number spinner activity
• Autumn tree activity
• Weather flashcards
• Interactive weather craft
• The Greedy Squirrel story and props
• Autumn vocabulary cards
• Squirrel basket activity
• IN and OUT practice
• Autumn memory game
• Shadow matching
• Shapes and colouring activities
• Suggested activities and teaching ideas

The activities are easy to adapt to your group. With very young toddlers, choose just a few vocabulary items and focus on repetition, movement, matching and manipulating the pieces. With older toddlers or young kindergarten learners, gradually introduce more vocabulary, simple questions and answers, counting and the complete story.

Use the activities individually or combine them to create several autumn lessons for your youngest English learners.

A playful way to introduce autumn through English, stories and hands-on learning.
