5 Fun Fall Ideas for the Family in New Jersey

I love summer, but fall is sure beautiful here at the Jersey Shore.

From leaves falling, walking along the beach, head to the boardwalk with a light jacket, and maybe take a bike ride. There are so many fun things to do in New Jersey, fun for the whole family.

Newjerseyfamily.com put together this great list and I've done all of them with the family. It's all about making memories with the ones you love. You might think your kids don't want to do anything other than be on their phones or video games, but they do. They want to be outside and make memories. I totally understand, having a teenager, but believe me - they'll love it once you get out there and do it.

Cheesequake State Park is a great place to see leaves and get the family out and walk.

Fall to me is about getting scared. I love haunted houses and especially haunted hayrides. Make sure to check some of the haunted events in our area. Six Flags Great Adventure's Fright Fest is always something fun to do in the fall. Remember during the day it's for the little ones. Then the "goblins" come out later. From what I'm hearing, this year is pretty scary at Six Flags.

I hope you can make some beautiful memories this fall. It's always fun to take a walk on the boardwalk or head to an arcade at the beach. There is so much to do right here in Ocean County.
