The pumpkins in our house were worked in both the traditional way (carving - Will & Franziska) as well as painted (Vivian & Annelee) and even Mr. Potatohead managed to get in on the act of pumpkin decorating.
Painting pumpkins is great for the kids ... I think I will steal that idea not just for this year, but probably the next few.
Very tentative beginnings
