I still have to pick a conker up when I am out walking. I think this is a lovely time of year with all the the yellows, reds, copper colours in the parks.

They have made an autumn collection on my window sill which consists of leaves, twigs, conkers and sweet chesnuts. Usually we have a pile of sticks and stones outside the front door to greet visitors. Bless them. My children don’t need any encouragement to do this.

I've done the same thing before now (not had time so far this year!) but it's like when you take shells from the beach, once they dry out the colour disappears they're quite bland and sad. I guess the point is to go out and see the leaves as nature intended!!! If nothing else it was educational for your little helper and maybe it'll be a memory from his childhood that will stick with him throughout his life and he'll do it with his own kids. There now, aren't you glad you did it anyway?!?!?! Keep the photos and blogs coming. I love this site!!
