Pumpkin Carving has come a long way since I was younger.
From stencils to cookie cutters to no-carve options families can be creative and customize their pumpkin experience.
Our experience has differed from year to year. My kids now range in age from 12 to 22 years old, but we still love our "pumpkin time."
STENCILS
There are so many free stencils online you can print to use on your pumpkins. What is their favorite cartoon? Do they like sports? What is their favorite animal?
All can be found online or in a store bought stencil book.
