Halloween wouldn't be the same without a scary
pumpkin lantern to put on your dinner table.
But first, you need to ask your parents to help
you find the right pumpkin.
The best pumpkin to buy is a large one with a stalk
as these look the best. The bigger the pumpkin, the scarier it will
be.
Try to find one that isn't damaged in any way -
you want a smooth surface so you can draw on it easily.
Once you have found your pumpkin, all you have
to do to make it, is watch Ruth in our pop-up guide as she takes
you through the steps. Then print out the instructions below and
have a go yourself.

Make sure you ask an adult to
help if you want to try this as knives can
be very sharp.
See the Pop-up guide
Go to the instructions
It's much more fun if you make this with an adult
and some friends!
When you have finished with the pumpkin you can
ask your parents if they want to use the pumpkin flesh to make pumpkin
soup.
The lantern will look good in the garden or outside
your front door on the porch. You can light it using a torch.
If you don't want to make a lantern, try our print-and-colour
witch.
Click on the witch for a big image that you can
print out.
Then colour the picture in using felt tips, coloured
pencils or crayons.
