This month we started with new pumpkin gourds …

… carved some into jack o’lanterns …

… or applied stickers or paint to make faces.

If you used paint or stickers make sure they’re non toxic. When old pumpkins are outdoors …

… someone will eat them. This is where non-toxic paint is important!

If you’re not sure about your pumpkins, be careful where you dispose of them so that the critters who like to eat them stay healthy.

Happy Halloween!
