The Little Witch Who Couldn’t Make Autumn - Family Learning Bundle

Bring the magic of autumn into your home with this creative, story-led family learning bundle, inspired by The Little Witch Who Couldn’t Make Autumn.

Follow Willow, a little witch whose attempt to cast the Autumn Spell goes hilariously wrong! Instead of red, gold and orange leaves, the forest fills with purple leaves, floating pumpkins and singing squirrels. Along the way, children discover that sometimes mistakes can lead to the most wonderful ideas.

Designed especially for home-educating families, this resource provides opportunities for children of different ages to learn together around one engaging story.

🌿 What's included?

📖 Original autumn-themed story – A warm, imaginative story that encourages discussion, creativity and a love of reading.

💬 Family discussion questions – Perfect for chatting around the breakfast table, during a nature walk or on a cosy autumn afternoon.

🔎 Inference reading activity – Children use natural objects they find outside to make connections and infer meaning from the story.

✏️ Differentiated writing activities – Writing opportunities for ages 4–5, 6–7, 8–9 and 10–11, with age-appropriate prompts, sentence starters and vocabulary.

📚 Non-fiction writing – Children create their own magical autumn spell using instructional writing skills.

🎨 Creative family activities – Including painting a magical purple woodland and creating a Whispering Woods shoebox scene.

and much more!

This bundle has been designed to make learning feel natural, creative and connected. Rather than separating subjects into individual lessons, families can use one story as the starting point for literacy, maths, science, geography, art, music and imaginative play.

Children can work at their own level while still sharing the same story, conversations and family experiences – making it particularly useful for multi-age home-educating families.

Cosy up with a blanket, a warm drink and a copy of The Little Witch Who Couldn’t Make Autumn and let your family's autumn learning adventure begin! 🍂💜🧙‍♀️
