Add a little creativity to your pumpkin theme with this simple pumpkin painting activity! Children can paint and decorate real mini pumpkins using their favorite colors, brushes and craft materials.
The included instruction page walks you through the materials, setup and painting process, making it easy to prepare the activity for your group. Keep it open-ended, or provide pom-poms, googly eyes, stickers, pipe cleaners and other supplies for children to add after the paint dries.
Don’t want to use real pumpkins? An included “My Pumpkin Painting” page gives children the option to paint and decorate a paper pumpkin instead. A photograph of a real pumpkin is also provided for children to observe and use as a reference.
Perfect for a pumpkin unit, fall art center, small-group activity or a creative project after visiting the pumpkin patch!
