On our painting day (watercolors) we painted with red and yellow. After the paintings dried I cut out some pumpkin shapes. The following day I left the pumpkins out on the art cupboard for them to draw faces whenever they wanted. Soon we had all the pumpkin faces ready for stringing.
The pumpkins are strung up behind the nature table and each night after dinner one is removed. We count how many are left until Halloween! If you have a countdown to share, please do. Do you have other Halloween traditions in your home?

Wonderful! I always love your ideas.
Oh, I love this idea! What a sweet little display.
Beautiful! I have been giving a lot of thought to what traditions I want to establish for our family at this time of year ... this is one to file away in my memory for sure!
My son's first birthday is October 30th and we are having a Halloween/ birthday celebration with friends and family. I hope this becomes a tradition!
a great idea! I'm a bit behind, but I think we'll get it up tomorrow...it will stop the cries of "how many days until Halloween mum?"
