Another teacher at my preschool gave me this idea, so I can't take the credit for it. I brought in our pumpkin the day after Halloween and some random nails from our tool box. I let the kids hammer away. They loved poking the nails in, swinging the hammers, and guessing what the inside looked like with nails poked through it. The pumpkin had an awesome design on it at the end.
We put in next to the paper bag pumpkins in the hall to display. Once it started to rot, we opened it up and looked at the spikey nails. Some of the nails had pierced seeds, which, with three year old humor, was hilarious!
