For our story we read It’s Pumpkin Time by Zoe Hall and Shari Halpern. A brother and sister get ready for Halloween early- by planting their own pumpkin patch! Readers will discover the simple joys of gardening and enjoy watching the exciting transformation from pumpkinseed to jack-o’-lantern. simple, bold illustrations inspired our project this week.<\/span><\/p>\n

We copied the style of the illustrator to make these pumpkin vine mobiles. \u00c2\u00a0<\/span>We began by tracing pumpkin shapes on white construction paper. We used the medium sized pumpkin from Preschool Express’ pumpkin patterns. \u00c2\u00a0<\/span>The girls painted the pumpkins orange. \u00c2\u00a0<\/span>Then they used a little red or yellow paint to add dimension to the pumpkins. \u00c2\u00a0<\/span>I love the different colors of the pumpkins!\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0<\/span>To make the vine, the girls painted a paper plate green and then added a little yellow paint. They also cut out and painted leaves. We cut the plate into a spiral. \u00c2\u00a0<\/span>We used curling ribbon to attach the pumpkins to the vine and hung them from the ceiling fan.<\/span><\/p>\n
