Here’s what we’d do

Paint pumpkins or reusable pumpkin-shaped objects together with a small shared palette. Choosing decorating instead of carving changes the equipment and cleanup needs, while keeping the social focus on making something seasonal.

How to make it happen

Go at your own pace.

  1. Before inviting

    Choose the practical details

    Choose materials appropriate to the participants and protect the work surface.

  2. The shared part

    Give the activity room

    Share paint in small amounts and allow simple patterns rather than a finished masterpiece.

  3. A good ending

    Finish at the agreed pace

    Give creations time to dry and clean brushes before leaving.
