Pumpkin Party

Gathering Activity: We all wore orange and black to class! When we arrived we read Halloween books with our Mommies.

Circle Time: We read The 5 Little Pumpkins and did the finger play and flannel board story together. We discussed what we were dressing up as for Halloween and read the book I'm Not Scared. We sang a song about a Scarecrow in a pumpkin patch, too.



"I'm a little scarecrow filled with hay. Here I stand in the fields all day. When I see a crow I like to shout, "Hey you crows, you better get OUT!" (I'm a little tea pot tune).

Art: We decorated pumpkins with pipe cleaners, stickers, felt, glue, paint, feathers, googly eyes, and pom poms.



Activities: We played a bean bag toss game with pumpkin buckets.



We also hid these cute little pumpkins and the children had a great time searching for them.

Snack: We ate pumpkin cookies and orange carrots! Yum!



Here are some fun shots of each Me with his or her pumpkin.
