Moving is stressful for the whole family. Our Pittsburgh movers travel around Pennsylvania, moving families and seeing how hard it can be on kids. They recognize the importance of helping kids adapt to their new surroundings. Thankfully, fall is the perfect time for you to take the kids out.
Kids can't wait for the excitement that comes from apple picking, pumpkin carving, and candy eating. They know that soon goblins, princesses, and witches will scour the streets asking "Trick or Treat." Add their excitement with the nice fall weather, and you have new explorers prepared for the adventure of exploring a new home.
Our Pittsburgh movers thought you'd might like their suggestions for more fun fall outings with your family. Here are a few places our local movers recommend you visit for your family fall adventure.
McDonald, PA.
Most of the year, it’s a farm and greenhouse. But when autumn leaves begin to turn, Bedner’s hosts a festival of fun every weekend through October. Just a half-hour’s drive southwest of Pittsburgh, it’s ideal for kids two and older. Face painting, magic shows, a corn maze, hayrides— and more “pumpkin patch” activities than you can shake a corn shock at—make this a perfect way to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.Wexford, PA.
Come hungry to Soergel Orchards, because you’ll want to sample many tasty treats. Just 15 miles north of Pittsburgh, this is one of the area’s most popular weekend destinations during the fall. Enjoy smoked wings, pulled pork, and roasted sweet corn. And it just wouldn’t be fall without a hot corn dog, would it? Of course, there’s more to life than munching. You’ll find horse drawn carriage rides, a bounce house, and spin art to occupy the kids, and much more.Portersville, PA.
About 40 miles north of Pittsburgh, Cheeseman Farm offers a “Pumpkin Festival” on weekends, with hayrides, a farm animals petting zoo, and a hay maze. If your clan enjoys the scary side of fall fun, hop on a haunted hayride to the Fright Farm. Boo! (Maybe not for your littlest youngsters).Gibsonia, PA.
Have you ever gone “pumpkin bowling”? Here’s your chance. About twenty miles north of Pittsburgh, Harvest Valley Farm hosts a fall festival every weekend in October. You can hop on a hayride, take a knife to a pumpkin, and tap your foot to live music as you sip a cup of cider.McMurray, PA.
About 15 miles south of Pittsburgh, Simmons Farm lets you not only pick your own pumpkin, but pick your own apples. The kids will enjoy pony rides and rubber duck races, and corn mazes. They also offer an “apple sling shot” in case you don't want to eat all the apples you picked.These are only a few of the many fall activities for kids you’ll find around Pittsburgh.
