RAVENSBURGER OH MY GOURD BOARD GAME
I had to work to find a pumpkin-themed game but I did. Ravensburger's Oh My Gourd is, according to the box, a "gourd-astic, growing game" that is recommended for individuals aged 6 and up. It helps develop math skills as well as introducing plant and gardening ideas. Reviews say that it is easy to understand and quick to set up. Buy your Oh My Gourd game here on Amazon.
IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN, CHARLIE BROWN
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is a television classic that needs no introduction. Your family will watch this Peanuts show together, year after year. However, don't limit yourself to the television program. Consider these additional ideas: the book of the same name, a jigsaw puzzle or even a coffee mug.
If you have children to read to, then the book version of the story would be a great addition to your pumpkin collection.
If you love working jigsaw puzzles, a number of Halloween-themed jigsaw puzzles are available also here on eBay featuring the classic Halloween story. Jus be sure to pick one appropriate for the ages in your household.
How about a Peanuts' Great Pumpkin-themed coffee mug? That would be perfect for serving witches brew or hot chocolate. It is a great tradition to have a Halloween mug or mugs to bring out and use each and every year during the month of October. Use them for coffee or tea for adults or for hot chocolate, hot apple cider or witches' brew for children. It would even be fun to use a Charlie Brown It's The Great Pumpkin mug to serve pumpkin juice or butterbeer.
Any version of UNO is fun but this version is extra fun at Halloween. Charlie Brown and the gang bring you the It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown UNO, which features cards customized for Halloween, taking Halloween gaming to a whole new level. Recommended for children 7 and up.

SPOOKLEY THE SQUARE PUMPKIN
Rated G, Spookley is a story about a pumpkin who is teased about his unusual shape. He is befriended by three funny spiders who manage to convince him that regardless of his shape, he could be Pick of the Patch on Halloween. Of course, there are a couple of bullies who tease him because of his squareness but Spookley eventually discovers that "it's fine to be round while the weather is fair, but there are times it's better to be a square!"

RECORD A PUMPKIN STORY
Here's another fun idea that will make a great memory. You can record your voice reading this book, 10 Little Pumpkins. It would be a especially fun at Halloween. Record your voice and your children or grandchildren can listen to the story over and over again. The book could be given to older children to read aloud. However, I have seen the reading level rated for children 9 to 12 years of age. Find your copy of 10 Little Pumpkins here, on Amazon.
