We made this craft at our Library Story Time. It turned out so cute!

1. Cut out a rectangle from orange paper to roll up & glue together -- to be the center of the pumpkin (or use a toilet paper roll).
2. Cut out strips of orange paper (less than 1" in width).
3. Cut out a green leaf, a green roll to be the stem, and a long skinny green strip to be a vine.
4. Glue one end of each strip to the inside of the toilet paper roll.
5. Then take the other ends of the orange strips, and glue them inside the other end of the roll.
6. Glue the green stem into the top of the roll.
7. Glue the leaf and vine onto the pumpkin, next to the stem.
