Decorating Reid’s pumpkin for Halloween

Posted By Barbara On October 28, 2007 @ 12:18 am In Pastimes, Mama, Uncategorized | 1 Comment

When Ken was out for supper on Friday night, Reid and I decorated a pumpkin using [1] Potato Head pieces. I wrote about reading that this being a [2] safe alternative to carving and there was a suggestion that a child go decorate their own pumpkin. In fact, the skin of the pumpkin is too tough to puncture with the plastic post on the [1] Potato Head pieces. I made some holes and Reid stuck the bits in. She enjoyed the process and the results are pretty good, as you can see below. Oh, and the mess is much, much less than when carving is involved. (Select the small image to see it enlarged.)
