Sensory Play With Pumpkins: Let Your Kids Get Messy With Pumpkin Play Fun With Dad Playtime

Read for some pumpkin fun and sensory play? Today it was raining again! It was the third day of rain so I decided it was time to explore our pumpkins. Every year I turn the sensory table into a pumpkin exploration area.

My children love hammering our pretend nails, which are golf tees, into the pumpkin.

They also love exploring what is inside the pumpkin – the squishy flesh, strings and seeds.

Don't be afraid to let your children get messy! The best kind of play is messy play!

Omg I just pulled this stuff out of the cabinet today. My daughter was asking to do this. I finally found where I hide the golf tees today.
Sometimes the simple things are the best things.
