"Pumpkin, Pumpkin" (song/activity)

As you are carving and lighting your pumpkins this week, you may want to take this fun holiday tradition as a yet another (FUN!) opportunity to reinforce certain goal areas. 


Here's a simple little Halloween song and activity...

"PUMPKIN, PUMPKIN" (click link to my webpage where you will find this song listed)

This activity may be used with these goal areas:

• Auditory Attention (listen for and follow auditory cue)
• Impulse Control (wait for cue to touch items)
• Cognitive Skill (teach/reinforce concepts such as colors, shapes, holiday/theme related material, etc.)
• Verbal Commands (follow verbal prompts/commands/directions)
• Sensory

Be sure to use props for this activity (a real or toy pumpkin and black cat AND/OR pictures of a pumpkin and black cat).  As always, keep in mind your child's age and/or developmental level when determining appropriateness of an activity.
