Potions, pumpkins and fireworks

This week at preschool we have been very busy scooping out pumpkins, making some potions and clay hedgehogs. 

Inside we have been scooping out pumpkins and separating the pulp from the seeds so we could use the seeds as hedgehog spikes. We had great fun moving the pulp from one pumpkin to another and making lots of birthday cakes. 
 

In our potion station we have had many different coloured potions such as pink, blue, yellow and green. As well as lots of different ingredients to add some extra texture and scent. 
We have also been making clay hedgehogs with our left over pumpkin seeds and sticks and leaves we have found on our trips to forest school. 
We have also made some fantastic rockets for bonfire night using lots of different materials.
