Pumpkin Fun!

updated October 15, 2007

The pumpkin craze is here! Check out these cool activities to do at home...

PUMPKIN PIE PLAYDOUGH

5 1/2 cups flour
2 cups salt
8 teaspoons cream of tartar
3/4 cup oil
1 (1 1/12 ounces) container pumpkin pie spice
Orange food coloring (2 parts yellow, 1 part red)
4 cups water Mix all of the ingredients together.

Cook and stir over medium heat until all lumps disappear. Knead the dough on a floured surface until it is smooth. Store in an airtight container.

Jack-O'-lantern Cookie Pops

Place A "Little Debbie" oatmeal creme pie on a plate. Spread orange icing all over it. Insert a pretzel stick into the creme part of the pie to create the stem. Place one end of a craft stick into the creme at the bottom for a handle. Add raisins (or chocolate chips) for jack-o'-lantern features.

Jack-o'-Lantern Cookies

1 slice of refrigerated sugar-cookie dough per child
orange decorator sugar
7 chocolate chips per child
1/2 green gumdrop per child

Give each child a slice of dough. Add sprinkled sugar to make orange. Make a face with the chocolate chips. Bake according to package directions. When cool, place the gumdrop at the top as the stem. YUM!!

TOASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS

Soak pumpkin seeds in warm salt water for one hour. Grease a cookie sheet and spread the pumpkin seeds over the cookie sheet. While moist, sprinkle with salt (seasoned salt also tastes great!), paprika, garlic powder, and/or even seasoned chicken flavoring. Allow to dry. Preheat oven to 375*. Cook seeds for 10 minutes then flip. Melt or use spray butter to coat the seeds. Enjoy!
