#58 - From Seed to Pumpkin by Wendy Pfeffer



Summary:  In the fall pumpkins are everywhere: in the supermarket, on doorsteps, and in scrumptious pies. From Seed to Pumpkin clearly presents how the plant develops from a tiny yellow seed to a big orange pumpkin.  

 
Suggested Activity: Sink or Float



Gather a variety of sizes of pumpkins. Have the children share their hypotheses about each pumpkin. Will it sink or float?  Why do they think that way? Are you wondering how this science experiment will turn out?  Even a 25 pound pumpkin floats!

Curriculum Area: Learning and Problem Solving (observes objects and events with curiosity, explores cause and effect)


Appropriate Age Group
: 3 and up
