These are some cute pumpkins my class made. First they painted the pumpkin shape, then added the faces. One problem with 5 years olds is if they still have paper they keep going- even when it looks done. I saw them on pinterest @http://www.flickr.com/photos/artsyt/5102556647/in/pool-1670102@N21/
These are my favorite pumpkins. I have done them for years. I start by having the kids paint stripes on yellow paper. I usually use orange and then outline them with black chunky yarn. We ran out of black, so one year I used orange yarn, then we ran out of that and I used brown( not so cute).
Well, we are down to only a few colors- so I tried bright blue or bright pink to match the yarn. The pink kind of looks orangie, but the still look pretty cute.
After they paint the stripes I draw a pumpkin outline. Then they made faces and outlined with glue. They were able to outline it by themselves with a little guidance ( I had a parent helper).
