How Does a Pumpkin Grow?

The story

Bitsy wants the biggest pumpkin ever, but the tiny seed isn't doing anything (and Rusty keeps digging it up).

What your child learns

A pumpkin grows from a seed to a sprout, a vine and flowers. Bees carry pollen between the flowers, and then the pumpkin grows.

Try at home: Plant a pumpkin seed in a cup of soil and watch it sprout.
