What is inside the pumpkin?

After predicting there might be seeds inside the pumpkin, we quickly cut the top of the pumpkin to find out what was inside. Julian and Talia were eager to get their hands inside and discovered there were seeds and also squishy pulp. They asked if we could eat the seeds, so we decided to roast the pumpkin seeds. Julian and Talia worked together to separate the seeds from the pulp. They washed the seeds and then mixed the seeds with a teeny bit of oil and a sprinkle of salt. After 20 minutes in the oven, we enjoyed a delicious snack of pumpkin seeds! Roasting pumpkin seeds allowed us to follow a recipe and engage in a sensory experience.
