This week we are all about Halloween and pumpkins
We are going to be investigating our pumpkins and learning about their life cycle
We are going to make pumpkin volcanoes
We are going to be returning to the pumpkin patch
To collect some more pumpkins
For our Harry Potter party on Sunday
And we will be giving our pumpkins a bath
There are so many ways to play with pumpkins
I will be sharing all our play and learning this week over on Instagram
There are all ready lots of ideas on my feed
For autumn and Halloween play
Here are 7 no carve ways to play with pumpkins
Use some munchkin pumpkins in your bookish play and book baskets
Wrap your pumpkins in rainbow coloured rubber bands
Make your pumpkins sparkle with starry stickers or use stickers to create autumn scenes
Use push pins and elastic bands to make pumpkin geo boards
Develop fine motor skills along with hand eye coordination by hammering golf tees into your pumpkins
Make Jack O Lanterns with sticker packs. We found ours in Aldi and Lidl.
Pick a pumpkin, Paint a pumpkin then start all over again!
Happy pumpkin playing!
