Decaying Pumpkin

After all the fun of Halloween we started wondering, "What happens to pumpkins after Halloween is done?" So we've decided to find out!

We are keeping a mini-pumpkin, from our pumpkin hunt, sealed up in a see-through container to observe what happens as time goes on. We will be recording our observations in our Science Inquiry booklets.

So far we've noticed that the pumpkin is "growing fur', it is "getting whiter" and that the container "is wet"!
