Craft: Jack-O-Lantern Picture
The kids were given a picture of a pumpkin to color. They then made the jack-o-lantern's mouth and eyes by gluing on three pieces of black yarn (each about 9" long).
Literacy Extensions:
- Carve or paint a jack-o-lantern with your child. As you are deciding on its features' discuss how different styles of features express different emotions.
- See how many different types of food your child thinks can be made with pumpkins. If you have carved a pumpkin, save the pumpkin seeds to roast.
