We made these super easy gelatin treats for Halloween, but they would work just as well for a fall-themed event.  You can easily buy pre-made gelatin already in a cup formation (which I did to save time, but also to get a variety of colors) and use any leftover Halloween candy for the body parts of the spider or monster that your child is creating.  I also invested in a small tube of black frosting that Monkey could easily grab and use to create the eyeballs, etc.  I know it seems like a lot of sugar all at once, but I was there to regulate her intake, and it turned out that she didn’t care for the gelatin one bit.  She mainly enjoyed making her “jiggly critter.”  We were inspired to make this dessert by one of my mom’s magazines (she’s been in town visiting), but I can’t find it on their site. Here’s a picture of the page that we used to guide us:
