Pumpkin Pumpkin (Children's Book)

Today I shared this video (based on the book Pumpkin, Pumpkin by Jeane Titherington) with our kindergarten class. They loved it. We are starting to talk about pumpkins and all the ways we use them. We spoke about how pumpkins grow as well...starting with the seed, sun and water all the way to the grown pumpkin itself. I even shared with them the importance of the green leaves (the 'food factory' for the plant). Tomorrow we will make a mobile showing the seed, sprout, flower and pumpkin.
