Books:

Flannel Story: Fall is Not Easy by Marty Kelley
This story lends itself very well to a flannel story. Here's my version:

Songs/Rhymes:
"Counting Leaves"
1 leaf, 2 leaves, 3 leaves today (count on fingers)
4 leaves, 5 leaves
Woosh! (blow on fingers)
Blow them all away! (flutter fingers away)
"Leaves Are Falling Down"
(I passed out scarves for this one and we pretended that they were leaves. You could also just use your hands.)
Leaves are falling down (flutter scarves down to floor)
Hush. (say it softly and touch the floor)
Leaves are falling down (flutter scarves down to floor)
Hush. (say it softly and touch the floor)
Whisper, whisper, whisper, whisper. (sway scarves side to side)
Leaves are falling down (flutter scarves down to floor)
Hush. (say it softly and touch the floor)
