You will need:
Orange Card (or thick sugar paper)
Black Marker/Felt Tip/Pencil
Green, Orange or Yellow Cellophane
String or Black Wool
Scissors
Glue
Cellotape
1. Draw a pumpkin onto the paper with the black pen, include triangle eyes, a nose, and a toothy grin or grimace.
2. Cut out the pumpkin and then cut the holes for the eyes, nose, and mouth.
3. Glue cellophane on the rear of the eyes, nose and mouth.
4. Cellotape some string on to hang to the ceiling or blue tac to the window so that the light shines through and brings your pumpkin to life.
I am always amazed at how much joy comes from the most simple of creations with our kids. Thanks for the reminder!

What a great idea and simple enough that my young daughter could do. Thank you for sharing this idea!

Like the fascinating cardboard box on christmas day, a lot of the time it is the simple activity that captures the little imagination
