Idea:

Pumpkin pudding

Take 2 boxes of vanilla pudding instant pudding mix and prepare following the directions on the box. Slowly stir in a can of canned pumpkin. (I usually only add 3/4 of the can) If you can add brown sugar and cinnamon to taste. Let it sit for 5 minutes and it's ready to eat! Tastes just like pumpkin pie!

I've also poured the pudding into a graham cracker pie crust and let it chill for an hour for a no bake pumpkin pie!

"Rice Krispie Pumpkins" Make rice krispies following the directions on the cereal box but add orange food coloring to the marshmallows. When cool roll into balls and then decorate faces on them. You can use shoelace licorice for a mouth, green gumdrop for the stem, M&M's or red hots for the eyes and nose or whatever you choose to use. The kids love em'!!!

2 bundt cakes put together makes a really great pumpkin. A little orange frosting and some creative thinking and you'll have an edible pumpkin.


This idea is a lot of work but the reward on young children's faces it well worth it. Take an orange and cut the top off like you would a pumpkin. Remove the inside of the orange and put in a bowl to fill pumpkin with later. Now fill with orange or any fruit or pudding. To keep cover of orange secure use a toothpick.


Yummy Pumpkins

Needed:  cream cheese, English muffins, raisins, orange food coloring

Have the children mix the orange food coloring into the cream cheese to make it a wonderful "pumpkin" color.  Next, have the children spread the orange cream cheese on their English muffins.

A tasty recipe for No-Bake Pumpkin Pudding

To make one individual serving per child, mix two tablespoons pumpkin pie filling, two tablespoons marshmallow crème, and one tablespoon whipped topping. It is fun for the kids to measure the ingredients themselves and mix this tasty pudding.
