Sensory activities encourage exploration, and pumpkin guts are a great sensory experience!
Levi was totally grossed out (see the pic for the face he made!) when we first opened the pumpkin, he didn't know what to think of the mess he discovered inside. At first he was reluctant to touch anything, and just used a spoon to scoop the seeds out (which we later toasted, and are still eating them!). Later he decided it would be fun to ‘jump in guts’, but he never did want to use his hands.

He also smelled the pumpkin - 'it smells yucky!' according to Levi.
And later he tasted the pumpkin, one was cooked and made into pumpkin muffins - those he loved!
