This week we were sent a Pumpkin Pal Teddy from
Build-A-Bear Workshop. Sunnyboy was absolutely delighted when he unwrapped the parcel and immediately fell in love with his new teddy, which is very soft and cuddly. We especially like it's pumpkin pattern design and it's pumpkin nose.
Later that day we made a little pumpkin for Sunnyboy's new teddy, using an orange mesh bath sponge, green ribbon and googly eyes.
The next day we decided to have a "pumpkin day" and make more homemade pumpkins. We made a moody pumpkin using this
Free Moody Pumpkin Tutorial at Forest Fairy Crafts,
then we made a pumpkin bath bomb,
and finally we made pumpkin suncatchers (to add to our
autumn window display), inspired by
firstpalette.
We've been admiring pumpkins (we'll be pumpkin shopping at the car boot sale this weekend),
and to celebrate "pumpkin day" Sunnyboy had a Smarties chocolate pumpkin.
We also read pumpkin stories.
