5 Little Pumpkins Halloween Activity (free download!)

You’re probably familiar with the 5 Little Pumpkins Halloween song. It’s a preschool classic! Kids love the rhyming words, the fun rhythm, and the counting. Plus pumpkins are always fun to talk about during the fall and Halloween time! If you’re looking for a way to incorporate this story into your day, keep reading to see how we did it!
