The Great Pumpkin Experiment

A few weeks ago when we were talking about plants, we did this...
We cut open our pumpkin and we checked out what was inside.  Everyone thought it looked gooey so we left all the insides right inside.  Antd then we did this...

We filled the whole thing with dirt - all the way to the top.  Last, we watered it. 
Squirt bottles are a great way for young children to water plants.  The squeeze action is great for strengthening little hands and the controlled water flow is great for a low mess factor.  It's hard to overwater when using a squirt bottle.

Stay tuned to see what happened to our dirt pumpkin.
