This is the first year Samuel has really been interested in carving a pumpkin. We choose to do something simple and free form instead of an intricately decorative design this year. This was so much fun Samuel loved helping his daddy pull the gooey guts out of the pumpkin we got, and Caleb thought the whole process was strange.
As you can see we chose a simple face design, but I wanted to add a special touch and I started thinking about the miniature pumpkin that Samuel and I painted together when we went to the corn maze last weekend so the pumpkin is now being eaten by our newly carved pumpkin.
This activity was so much fun for the whole family watching the boys dig their hands into its gooey guts and their reactions to the sliminess was the funniest part. I recommend that all families carve at least one pumpkin together every year. You can try something simple or intricate whatever your preferences.
