After you scoop out the pumpkin seeds, carve your jack 'o' lantern, and collect the candy, don't throw away those pumpkins. Compost them!
Scoop up this soil science and storytelling workbook to help young learners explore what happens to the soil when pumpkins break down after being buried.
You'll also get a bonus storytelling activity through which your students and kiddos can explore their creativity to imagine what the pumpkin might be up to while your young learners are away.
