Pumpkin Carving

My children love it when we go and pick out the biggest pumpkin. We also get four smaller ones so that the children can each have their own. Then we go home, I spread newspaper on the floor in the kitchen and let the kids draw faces on their individual pumpkins.
My husband carves out the tops of the pumpkins and tells the children to dig out the “brains”. Our children love this part because they are able to get all slimy and gooey. After that, when the pumpkins are all empty, the faces get to be carved. Finally, we are able to put candles in the pumpkins and set them out on the porch to let all the neighbors see how creative our children are.
So, if you are feeling imaginative or if you know someone who is artistic we have a Halloween Gift Basket filled with all sorts of items. Like a pumpkin carving set, a flashlight, and besides if they get hungry the basket is also filled with yummy treats that they can nibble on
