After visiting the pumpkin patch, we learned more about pumpkins! We learned about the different parts of a pumpkin and its life cycle. We discovered that a pumpkin begins as a seed, sprouts from the soil, and grows into a vine with yellow flowers. These flowers must be pollinated, often by bees, for a green pumpkin to form. Once the green pumpkin matures, it turns orange, and the cycle starts again!
