Pumpkin Cut & Pattern Cards

*I recommend printing these onto cardstock to make it easier for the child to cut.*To prepare for the child, cut along the darker, horizontal lines first to create 4 separate strips. (like the strip below)

*Give the strips to the child and ask her to cut along each dotted line to make six separate picture cards for each row.*This can be used as a stand-alone cutting activity OR the little cards can then be used to make patterns together with your child. (such as: pumpkin, seeds, pumpkin, seeds, etc.)

Carve a Pumpkin20-Grid

To Prep:*Print onto cardstock and laminate for durability.(Print one pumpkin game board and one jack-o’-lantern pagefor each player)

*Cut apart jack-o’-lanterns on dotted lines.*Locate a die, labeled 1-6.

To Play: (for 2 players)*Each player needs a pumpkin game board and 20 jack-o’-lantern pieces.*The first player rolls the die, counts the number of dots, and places that many jack-o’-lanterns on top of his pumpkin board as he “carves” his pumpkins. For example, if the player rolls a 2, he takes two jack-o’-lantern pieces and places them on top of two pumpkins on his game board.*The first player to cover/“carve” all his pumpkins, wins!

Variations:*If only one person is playing, he continues to roll and count the die, placing jack-o’-lanterns onto his game board until they are all covered.*Use the jack-o’-lantern page as cutting practice. Simply cut along all the horizontal lines and ask the child to cut along all the vertical lines.

VERSION 2 (harder)*Place some pumpkins on the garden mat*Ask your child to count the number of pumpkins.*Help him locate and trace the correct number.

VERSION 3 (hardest)*Place some pumpkins on the left side of the mat and more on the right side.*Pose is as a problem to the child such as “There were 3 pumpkins in the garden. Then 2 more grew.
