Any time during the fall season is the perfect time to teach about pumpkins.
This free printable cut and paste coloring page can be used before your visit to a local pumpkin patch, before carving your own pumpkins, as part of your pumpkin unit study, or at any other point during the season.
This page can also be used for a pumpkin science lesson any time of year that you're teaching plant growth.
Pumpkins take months to reach maturity, but the seeds sprout quickly. Sprouting pumpkin seeds in a paper towel, or a shallow tray of soil, is a fun activity for children.
Pumpkin microgreens are edible so you can eat your young pumpkin sprouts! Seeds harvested from grocery store pumpkins may not sprout, so it's a good idea to buy a small packet of seeds if you want to try this activity.
- VARIETIES - Baby Boo, Sugar Pie, Jack O Lantern, Jack Be Little, Giant Big Max Pumpkin Seeds for Planting.
- OUTDOOR GARDEN - Fun vegetable perfect for your outdoor garden. Seeds can be sown directly into the garden.
- TASTY AND PRETTY - There's nothing more satisfying than growing your own giant pumpkin, or small baby boo pumpkins.
