Grace's kindergarten class went on a walking field trip to Witch Zaugg's house to learn about pumpkins. I think Grace was a little nervous after Mark convinced her that there used to be a boy named Johnny but Witch Zaugg turned him into Johnny Cakes. Grace is in red with a purple backpack.
Witch Zaugg lives a couple blocks from the school. She had pumpkins all over the lawn.
She taught the kids about pumpkins growing on a vine and having seeds inside. I think it was more fun than educational.
She let the kids take home a pumpkin. They could take the big one home if they could carry it.
Grace gave up on the big one and chose a small one instead.
This is Daliah by Grace. Mrs. Stephen's said that Witch Zaugg might make Daliah cakes instead of Johnny cakes. She probably shouldn't have told me that in front of Grace. Daliah became my walking buddy for the trip.
Those little pumpkins got a little heavy on the walk back to the school.

What a fun field trip. Have you carved your pumpkin yet? Did you get some pumpkins from the ones you grew at our house? Send me pictures of your pumpkins.
