I have always loved carving pumpkins for Halloween, but sometimes I just don’t want to mess with the goo that you have to clean out to get started. And don’t get me started when you have kids helping. Either minutes into getting their hands slimy and sticky, oddly enough, at the same time, they check out. Or once the carving starts to happen they get upset when you remind them to be careful. Or if they are little enough that they carve in more of a “project manager” capacity, they get bored really quickly.
And so, today I’m sharing 46 of my absolutely favorite no carve pumpkin projects that kids are going to love. Some they’ll still need some help with and some are more FOR the kids and less FOR THE KIDS TO MAKE. But no matter what, you’re sure to find some amazing Halloween gourds to get to not carving!
Please be kind and click through to the original maker’s websites to pin images. It’s the best possible way to thank them for all of their hard work!
