Tot School: P is for Pumpkin

Tot School
Jackson is 16 months old.

We did a lot of pumpkin activities this week! We talked about pumpkins, the color orange, and the letter P.

We read "Where is Baby's Pumpkin" by Karen Katz.

He made a pumpkin patch with foam stickers. I got a huge thing of them at Walmart for $5. We made a pumpkin patch for all the grandparents! I got this idea from Little Moments.
He made handprint pumpkins.
He sponge-painted some P's.

He had a pumpkin/orange-themed dinner.Sweet potato jack-o-lantern, pumpkin shaped grilled cheese, & orange pudding (sugar free vanilla pudding w/food coloring).

And of course, we visited the pumpkin patch!
