Well it's pumpkin season right? So most of you have likely brought home a pumpkin or two. Will you carve it? Paint it? Otherwise decorate it?This year we'll be decorating our pumpkin with Mr. Potato head parts. I stuffed a box full of potato parts at California Adventure recently, so we'll be using those on our pumpkins. But if you don't have some potato parts already, they sell kits for it too like these pirates and princesses.
However, if you're actually going to carve that pumpkin, I recommend printing this Pumpkin Prayer Mini Books.
Here's the prayer:
Lord, open my mind and fill me with Your wisdom and guidance.
Lord, take out all my fussies and frownies and fill me with your love.
Lord, open my eyes to see all the beautiful things You have made.
Lord, help me to be a sweet, sweet fragrance for You.
Lord, help me always speak Your words of love and kindness.
Lord, let me be a light to others For you have filled me with your light.
With each line pause and complete the following:
Cut out the top.
Scoop out the yuckies.
Carve the eyes.
Carve the nose.
Carve the mouth.
Place the candle inside and lid on top.
May each of us be filled with Christ!
