Hello Christian Friends & Homeschoolers,
How do you incorporate Halloween in your homeschooling program? There are special foods, games, art projects, decorations, costumes, movies, mazes and stories that you can use to teach your child about this holiday.
Special foods might include baking Halloween cookies and cupcakes. Let’s not forget the pumpkin seeds you gather after you have cleaned out your pumpkin in preparation for carving your pumpkin. Here is a simple recipe for baking your pumpkin seeds.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Toss seeds in a bowl with the melted butter and salt. Spread the seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown; stir occasionally.
