Carver after-school students at Naramake Elementary School participated in a fun fall activity this week through Carver's After the Bell program.
The students decorated mini pumpkins using Q-tips and paint.
The instructor gave each student a small pumpkin, Q-tips, and various fall-colored paints.
The students learned about pumpkin growing seasons and the process pumpkins go through before getting carved for Halloween.
Then, the students got creative by dipping the Q-tips in paint and making dots, lines, and shapes on their mini pumpkins.
Some students made polka dot or striped patterns, while others tried painting simple pictures like jack-o-lantern faces.
The students had a blast getting messy and turning their mini pumpkins into tiny works of art.
This hands-on activity helped them explore their creativity while learning about Fall traditions.
The decorated pumpkins will create a fun classroom display leading up to Halloween.
