Pumpkin Time

October is almost over, so it's time for pumpkins at Storytime. First, we read Pumpkin, Pumpkin by Jeanne Titherington, about a boy who plants and cares for a pumpkin plant. Next came a funny story about pumpkins growing wild on Pumpkin Hill by Elizabeth Spurr. Finally, we read about three animal friends making Pumpkin Soup in the book by Helen Cooper. Here's a video about the story of Pumpkin Soup!
Then we made a pumpkin craft - a jack-o-lantern made from an orange plate, with black yarn laced through the rim and a scary or a happy face. After that, we continued to decorate our pumpkins using peel-and-stick Halloween stickers!
Next week's theme is Halloween! If you come to the library for Storytime, you can wear your costume if you want to!
