Hidden Pumpkins

Hidden Pumpkins is a search-and-find adventure, taking children through haunted houses, Halloween parades and pumpkin patches. Kids will hunt for a total of 100 Mr. Pumpkins. When they are done, they will discover a pumpkin chest with even more hidden characters to go back and hunt for! Hidden Pumpkins combines Halloween with learning; children have so much fun they don’t even realize they are practicing counting skills, along with search and find skills.
