Golden autumn is a dull time... This is what many poets call a wonderful time of year. How many poems, sayings, proverbs and riddles have been invented on autumn themes. At the beginning of September it is colorful, lush and warm. There is no such sultry heat anymore. Agree that after summer you want a little coolness. In November, the sun appears less and less often, the sky darkens, frequent rains and a lot of clothes begin. However, each season has its own unique charm. Kids also learn all the delights of nature. In this article you will find new proverbs, sayings, and signs about autumn.
Autumn time - kids are having fun
The nights have become cooler, the days are no longer so hot, and the morning smells like autumn. Adults and children are tired of the heat and dream that it will become at least a little cooler. However, no one wants a period of rain or frost. After all, this makes everyday life gray and dull and lasts until spring. I just want to plunge into hibernation, like a bear in a den, and sleep through all the dull days. And if you don’t think like that, but remember that in the fall there is a great opportunity to enjoy the last warmth. Only at this time can you see multi-colored, bizarrely shaped leaves. Children in kindergartens and schools make wonderful applications with them. First, they go with their teachers to the park, where there are a lot of bright and beautiful leaves, collect bouquets from them, make herbariums, and then crafts. How kids love to jump into mountains of leaves or simply rustle them as they walk.
Some people believe that autumn is when the body relaxes after a stormy and emotional summer. As they say, to each his own.

The warm summer has ended and autumn has come to replace it. Grasses in fields, meadows and forests turn yellow, foliage on trees and shrubs turns golden.
Did you know that early autumn is called “golden”. Why? As mentioned above, leaves and grass take on a golden color. The air becomes cool, and thin threads of cobwebs fly in it. This period is also called “Indian summer”. The days are sunny and fine, but much shorter than they were in the summer, and the nights are longer.
Gusty winds are blowing more and more often, cold, light rains are drizzling, and fogs are spreading in the mornings. The wind tears yellow leaves from the trees, which cover the ground with a soft, fluffy, warm carpet.
In mid-autumn, the time for leaf fall begins, when the trees lose their beautiful attire. The days become cloudy, the sun appears less often. It rains more often. There are slight frosts at night.
Late autumn is called “silver”. The first thin ice appears on the puddles. Airy snowflakes fall on the frozen ground. Fallen leaves covered with frost turn silver in the sun. Icy tree branches ring in the wind, migratory birds fly south. Animals are actively preparing for winter. They strengthen nests and burrows, change their summer coats for winter ones.
Proverbs about autumn:
Autumn brings bad weather.
Woman, count the chickens in the fall, and man, measure the bread in the spring!
In autumn, livestock gets fatter, and people become healthier.
Autumn will give orders, and spring will say its own.
What kind of autumn is it when a goose goes out onto the ice?
In autumn bad weather there are seven weathers in the yard: it sows, it blows, it twists, it stirs, it tears, it pours from above, and sweeps from below.
Feed me in the spring, and in the fall I will be full.
Autumn says - “I’ll get rich!” And winter - “As I want!”
Autumn says: “I’ll dress the earth in a sundress!” And winter - “I’ll put it under the canvas, spring will come, it will show!”
Spring is not meat, autumn is not dairy.
Autumn says - “I will tidy up the fields”; Spring says, “I’ll take a look.”
When telling children about autumn, be sure to pay attention to the autumn months.

Materials for preschoolers about autumn (speech development, preparatory group) on the topic
Preschoolers about autumn
Plants in autumn
The main change in inanimate nature - cooling - entails changes in living nature.
With the arrival of autumn, plant leaves change color. Trees are preparing for winter cold. The leaves of maple, birch, and aspen are turning yellow. The leaves of rowan, cherry, and bird cherry turn red. The oak leaves become bronze. Old trees change leaf color earlier than young trees.
Leaf fall gradually begins. Linden and old poplars shed their leaves before other trees. Then the leaves of the maples and rowan trees fall. The leaves of lilac and birch remain until late autumn, and the leaves of some oaks do not fall even in winter.
The grass turns yellow and withers. Only here and there chamomile, celandine, plantain, violet, and clover bloom. The sky is becoming increasingly clouded with dark clouds. A light drizzle is falling more and more often. On rainy days the sky appears gray and low. In rivers, lakes and ponds, the water becomes colder. Fog often rises over bodies of water.
Birds in autumn
In summer, birds do not go hungry. But in the fall, bugs, butterflies, midges and mosquitoes hide in crevices, cracks in walls, and under the bark of trees. Ants close all entrances to anthills and prepare for winter sleep.
Already at the beginning of autumn, plants wither, the number of fruits and seeds decreases. Fleeing from hunger and cold, many birds are preparing to fly to warmer climes.
The first to fly away are songbirds, which feed mainly on insects. These are cuckoos, nightingales, orioles, swallows, and swifts.
Waterfowl - ducks, geese, waders, swans - gather in flocks and fly away.
All flocks of birds fly to the same familiar warm countries where they flew to spend the winter in past years.
Along with the birds, many insects also fly away to warmer regions for the winter. Migration is carried out by dragonflies, ladybugs and some species of butterflies.
Animals in autumn
Animals are also preparing for winter. Mice, voles, moles, hamsters, and rats dug winter storage rooms. Mice and hamsters fill them with grain. One such pantry can contain up to five kilograms of grain. Moles and rats carry potatoes, beans, carrots, grains and seeds from the fields.
Squirrels hang mushrooms on tree branches and hide nuts and cones in the nest. One squirrel stores approximately 15 kilograms of nuts, mushrooms and various seeds.
The hedgehog is preparing a warm, cozy nest for the winter, in which it will sleep all winter. Snakes, frogs, toads, snails, lizards hid in secluded places.
Badgers store seeds and roots of plants, dried frogs, and acorns. Many animals grow fluffy, thick fur by winter. Hedgehogs, badgers, and bears deposit a lot of fat under their skin. In autumn, badgers increase their weight to six kilograms. Fat for these animals is a winter food supply.
In mid-autumn, the fur color of hares, squirrels, and arctic foxes changes. In the hare it becomes white, in the squirrel it becomes gray, and in the arctic fox it becomes gray-blue. Such changes in color and thickness of fur are called molting.
Many animals and birds can find food in winter - foxes, wolves, hares, moose, magpies, crows, sparrows. They are active at any time of the year.
Pets in autumn
Domestic animals continue to graze on pastures in the fall, but with the arrival of cold weather and rain they are transferred to special premises and given additional feeding - silage, haylage, straw.
Pets require special care. They are afraid of drafts, so all cracks in barns and pigsties are carefully closed. The inside of the premises is whitewashed with lime. This makes them brighter and cozier, and, in addition, lime kills pathogenic bacteria.
People's work in autumn
Harvesting continues in the fall. Bread is harvested with special machines - combines.
In the fall, potatoes, cabbage, carrots, and beets are harvested.
Farmers know how important it is to apply fertilizer to a harvested field. Then the field is plowed.
In winter, the plowed soil will freeze well, killing weed seeds and harmful insects hidden for the winter.
But autumn is not only harvest time. Seeds of rye and wheat are sown in plowed fields, and carrots, dill and parsley are sown in vegetable gardens.
There is also a lot of work in city parks and squares in the fall. At this time, young trees and shrubs are planted. The lower parts of the trees are painted with lime to kill insects. Whitened tree trunks will not be chewed by hares.
In autumn, fruit trees in gardens are well watered. This helps the trees withstand winter frosts and produce a good harvest next year.
Autumn sayings
Teachers and parents tell children many sayings. This gives an idea of the tricks of nature, the weather, animals, etc. There is no better way to tell a child about the seasons than folk sayings. Thanks to them, he understands nature and simple phrases more. Sayings about autumn for children say that there is no such thing as bad weather.
Each time of year pleases adults and children in its own way. Read sayings about autumn to the children and ask how they understand them.

Now we have early autumn, it looks like summer. The same sunny, warm, green, but yellow and red leaves are already appearing. Today I went to kindergarten and met the Jumping Bunny and he gave me this magic basket. Let's open it and see what's in it. (I open the basket, take out the leaves and scatter them on the carpet).

What a child needs to know about autumn
Before asking the kids questions about the time of year, first tell them a little. Show the children the pictures. Signs of autumn for children or riddles will be more understandable if they see with their own eyes what is meant. Tell them how cold days are, how windy, how often it rains, how leaves come in different colors and shades. Children should understand that in the fall you can make wonderful crafts not only from leaves, but also from chestnuts, acorns, etc.
Show the kids with a clear example what leaf fall is. Let them run over the leaves, touch them with their hands, and collect them for crafts. From the pictures you can see how a flock of birds flies south. You can go on an excursion to the fields with children aged 5-6 years. Let them watch how people harvest, while listening to the teacher talk about what it is for and what will be done with it next. Make up some autumn-themed sentences with your children. Have a fall festival for them to learn poetry. At the same time, memory, attention, and thinking will develop. Ask them to come up with signs of fall for preschoolers. From their observations, they can teach adults a lot.
How to conduct classes
Illustrations, colorful drawn or photographed images are used in kindergarten classes; if you show an object, the phenomenon in close proximity does not work. Pictures for children “Autumn” should be hung on stands and shown to children from the end of August, when there are almost no signs of the arrival of September-October on the street.
In thematic classes, you need to use the following types of work with preschoolers:
- Carefully examine images and photographs. Drawings are distributed to children on tables. If the lesson is conducted with children 3-4 years old, it is printed out large and shown to the children from the hands of the teacher.
- A short lecture. The teacher talks, the children listen. The lecture should not be boring; color it with epithets and images. Focus on the signs of autumn, late and early, color features of the season, weather conditions, and adults’ activities in harvesting. Children aged 5-7 years can be trusted to tell their own story using pictures. In this case, the teacher helps with leading questions.
- Discussion. The teacher needs to ask the children a few questions: What did you see? What time of year is this? Why did you decide so? Etc.
- Games and tasks with pictures. After discussing the topic “Autumn” and looking at the paintings, invite children to color the plot image, and for preschoolers 5-6 years old to create a composition with paints and pencils.
- Final lesson. Conduct it in the format of a creative workshop. It can take place in November, when children observe changes in nature already on a walk with their parents or group. Give older preschoolers the task of drawing autumn and telling about their impressions. Pupils of the younger group - make a craft from natural material together with their parents, memorize a short poem.
Autumn pictures for kindergarten children are a way to create strong connections between time, phenomenon, and nature. They need to be used not only directly, showing them to preschoolers, but also gradually. Set up a themed stand, hang illustrations and works of famous artists on the walls of the playroom, create a laptop with pictures on the theme of autumn for children and a mobile folder with your parents.
