Pumpkins are one of my favorite fall themes. I don’t think you have to wait until Halloween to work on kids activities with pumpkins. They can be explored September through November. There are so many ways that children can learn and create with pumpkins.
I have found totally awesome pumpkin themed activities you will love on wonderful blogs. Please take a moment when you visit each blog. You will find that they are filled with great projects and ideas.
At the end of this post you will find our activities. JDaniel and I have done a number of activities that feature pumpkins. We truly enjoyed each of them. I know you will too.
