Happy Halloween everyone!! We’re doing all things spooky this week at The Children’s House!! The children will be enjoying pumpkin carving, learning about parts of the pumpkin & making sensory bags from the pulp – nice & messy!!! Later in the week we will be doing pumpkin hammering, q-tip painting, and at the end of the week we will be having our Halloween party, so the children are welcome to come in dressed up as scary as they like!!

5 Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate,                                       (hold up 5 fingers)
The 1^st one said “Oh my, it’s getting late!”                               (put hands to cheeks)
The 2^nd one said “There are witches in the air,”                     (flutter fingers above head)
The 3^rd one said “but we don’t care!”                                        (shake head)
The 4^th one said “Let’s run and run and run.”                         (mime running with arms)

The 5^th one said “I’m ready for some fun!”                               (thumbs up)
Then ‘Oooo’ went the wind, and out went the lights…           (clap hands)
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!                      (roll arms)
