Pumpkin Pi: A Very Punny Pumpkin

Hey, friends!  Still trying to figure out how to decorate that pumpkin on your porch?  Here is an idea that will take you less than five minutes and will be a huge hit with the intellectual crowd.  Yep, it’s nerdy, punny humor at its best…

You need:
– a pumpkin
– a pencil
– a black Elmer’s Painters paint pen
– ribbon
– scissors

Step 1: Use a pencil to freehand or trace the pi symbol onto the front of your pumpkin.
I just drew mine while looking at an image of the symbol, but if you’re not comfortable with your freehand drawing skills, you can easily print out an image, cut it out, and trace around it.

Step 2: Trace over your outline, then fill it in using your black Painters paint pen.

Step 3: Tie a piece of ribbon or raffia around the stem and trim off the excess.

That’s all there is to it!  Now you have a very punny pumpkin any math-lover is sure to appreciate!
