Pumpkins Pumpkins everywhere!

We have been in full swing with autumn and Halloween activities. Everything is centered around pumpkins! I wanted to share some of the things we have been doing.

 I mentioned in a recent post about visiting a pumpkin patch. We have since visited another one since there was different activities to do.

 Activities included painting pumpkins, a hay ride, and a science center with different stations.



Then there was pumpkin carving. Some friends of ours came over to watch football and carve pumpkins. I have pictures to prove it so yes the toddler was there, but unlike previous years he didn't want any part of digging out the insides. He had a say in our designs and that is about it. 



the hubby did this free hand no stencil needed!

There was another craft project for little man as well.



We used the pumpkin seeds from our night of carving to glue onto a paper pumpkin. The seeds were still slimy o that with the glue was an awesome sensory experience. We added some counting of the seeds and talks of colors. Topped it all off with a sprinkle of glitter because glitter is always fun.

And here are some other pumpkin happenings in our home:

a little sticker action from little man on his mini pumpkins

These two are workings of the hubby..he is quite the artist!

And the weather finally cooled some so with that and all of these pumpkins I am a happy camper!

Happy Fall!
