Creative Tuesdays - Autumn


Ooooh, Autumn is certainly is my favorite season...

The theme over at Creative Tuesday's this week is Autumn.

I am sharing one of my favorite poems of  the season to go along with the theme!
5 Little Pumpkins
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
the first one said, "oh my it's getting late"
the second one said their witches in the air
The third one said, but we don't care
The fourth one said let's run and run and run
the fifth one said I am ready for some fun!

oooo went the wind
and out went the lights
and the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
yes, my kids and I still read this...!
You can get your copy  here

See you at Creative Tuesdays,

    Heather! First, your header is awesome! second your piece this week is fabulous and third, I love that poem too!! Me and the children used to love saying it and emphasizing the "oooooo went the wind and out went the lights and the 5 little pumpkins rolled...." and we would make a rolling thing with our arms.
    Thanks for the memory!!

    Wonderful illustrations, as always. "Five Little Pumpkins" is such a fun holiday poem; I used it when I taught kindergarten.
