Halloween, Pumpkins & Family Time

Fun Pumpkin Family Time

Halloween is a weird holiday. On one hand, I want to hide from anything that leads me in celebrating death with my kids. On the other hand: COSTUMES! CANDY! PEOPLE KNOCKING ON MY DOOR!

As a family, we’ve done almost everything imaginable on Halloween–dressed up and went to a church carnival, trick-or-treated and went to bed early with all the lights out. I don’t really have a firm grasp on what to do about such a day.

My favorite tradition (which, is it a tradition if you’ve only done it twice?) is to carve a pumpkin along with The Pumpkin Patch Parable by Liz Curtis Higgs.

The Pumpkin Patch Parable by Liz Curtis Higgs // Perfect family time for Halloween & Fall!

I am the true vine; my Father is the gardener. John 15:1

Pumpkin Patch Parable // fun Halloween family time!

He has taken our sins away from us as far as the east is from west. Psalm 103:12

Redeeming Halloween // a fun God-centered activity

God once said, “Let the light shine out of the darkness!” And this is the same God who made his light sine in our hearts. 2 Corinthians 4:6

I know it’s Halloween today, but you could still do this object lesson with your kids anytime this Fall. It’s such a beautiful picture of what God has done in our hearts and lives. Plus, it redeems what the world has taken for evil!

What are you doing for Halloween today? (If your kids are dressing up, I wanna know about their costume!)
