Carving a Jack-O-Lantern

My friends Gerard and Chase spent an afternoon with their mum and dad carving and painting pumpkins! Gerard and his dad started to carve their pumpkin by drawing the face on the pumpkin with a marker. Gerard's dad used a special knife to cut a circle around the stem, then Gerard got to pull the top off and see inside -What's in there? -Seeds! Then, they cut out the shapes to make a face And meanwhile, Chase and his mum painted a pumpkin face. -What's she painting? -That could be a nose. Look! They're using the insides as hair! And you can make up pumpkin games too! -Let's pretend to make pumpkin soup And it's always yummy to toast pumpkin seeds! When a face is carved into a pumpkin, a grown-up can light up the face by placing a candle inside, then, it's called the Jack-O-Lantern! How about that?
