Starting a week on pumpkins! And get ready for some awesome ideas! No, probably not the things that we will be doing that are MY ideas, but the TONS of links I am going to pass along this week of all the amazing pumpkin themed stuff that other incredible preschool and parent bloggers are doing out there. I can't wait to share with you all the stuff that I have found.
But first, here is what we did today.
And of course I had to make one too!
I was really impressed with how well Sam took to this project. She loved finding the orange and green pages in the magazines and then cutting the small pieces. She also worked really hard to make sure that the whole thing was covered. And I think the pumpkins are super cute too!

The Nitty Gritty!
So, I want to start this week of pumpkins and sharing ideas off with sharing some of our favorite pumpkin ideas from the past.
Just recently we made some really cute 3D pumpkins that are still hanging up in my kitchen.
A great toddler pumpkin book and activity - Five Little Pumpkins.
Something fun to do when all the halloween fun is over and your pumpkins are a pile of rotting mush! Plant them!
And of course we have carved them!
Now you can see why we need to have a pumpkin themed week, we clearly have not done enough stuff with these things.
Stay tuned this week for LOTS of great ideas from around the web. And if you have an idea that you would like to share or have blogged about please leave a link in the comments so I can check it out and share it with my readers (if you have already told me on Facebook you do not have to share the link again!).
Love this idea Abbie!

Tried this yesterday with my 3.5-year-old. Our didn't turn out nearly as pretty, but he LOVED playing with the glue & scissors. Thanks for the idea!
