In October we are learning about pumpkins, fall harvest, and of course getting ready for Halloween fun. Today we learned out what happens when yellow and red paint are mixed. I used finger paint with brushed for this activity though I supposed the kids could have mixed the paint by hand as well. I drew a large pumpkin shape onto finger paint paper for each child and had them mix up their paint and cover the entire area. After the paint was dry each child got to glue on their pre-cut triangle nose/eyes and mouth. I cut around the entire pumpkin for all the little kids and the older kids got to cut out their own. All the kids were very excited to make their painting masterpieces into a jack-o-lantern!
