Fall is here and we are all about the changing leaves and everything that goes with this time of the year. Your child can celebrate fall with this fun fall-themed activity.

Simply print out the template to create a fall-themed acrostic poem. What's an acrostic poem? It's a poem where the first letter of each line spells out a word or message. Encourage children to add a word that makes them think of fall - and then add some color to the seasonal shapes!

Tips to Manage Back-to-School Stress



Well, it’s official: School is back in session in Maine and kids from Pre-K to 12th grade have returned to the classroom… or the Zoom room. School may look different for many kids this year, and for a lot of students, the place where school actually takes place changes day by day, week by week. That could mean homeschooling, distance learning, classroom learning – or any combination of the three – a situation that’s bound to create some stress for even the most secure kiddos (and their parents or caregivers, for that matter). With school underway and first-day jitters (hopefully) far behind them, now is a great time to strategize how you and your child will manage any stress that might arise throughout the school year.
