On Day 9 of October..

We practiced some of the print making skills we learned about yesterday with Margaret Hudson, and made



hand print pumpkin patch


foot print ghosts

They need details added of course, when the paint dries. The kids had tons of fun getting their feet painted with the cool, smooth white paint. And seeing how adding orange paint to their palms and a dot of brown at the top, made such wonderful pumpkins really got them to giggling too!

We also learned the rhyme 5 Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate.
The first one said, "Oh, it's getting late!"
The second one said, "There are witches in the air."
The third one said, "But we don't care."
The fourth one said, "Let's run, let's run!"
The fifth one said, "Isn't Halloween fun?"

Then Woooooo went the wind
And OUT went the lights.

And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.
