Today the toddlers got to turn their orange painted pumpkins into Jack O’ Lanterns! We talked about all of the different shapes we can use to make the faces. We used triangles for eyes to reinforce the shape of the month and let them choose between triangles or circles for the nose. The last step was to make their pumpkin happy or sad. For the most part everyone choose happy but there were a few that went for the sad pumpkin!
