Tilly Turkey has found the roundest pumpkin in the patch. She wants to bring it home for the Thanksgiving table. Color Tilly, her special pumpkin, and the crunchy leaves around them!
Tilly Turkey has discovered a wonderfully round pumpkin and wants to bring it along for Thanksgiving. Crunchy leaves around her make the scene feel like a cool autumn day in the patch. The pumpkin is big enough to be the pictureβs bright centerpiece, while Tilly adds a feathery friend beside it. What color do you think her special pumpkin should be: classic orange or something surprising?
Color Tillyβs body chocolate brown or warm tan, then use red, yellow, and orange for details on her feathers. Make the pumpkin a rich orange with darker orange lines between its sections. Its stem can be green or brown. Scatter red, gold, and rust colors over the leaves to show the season changing. A soft light-blue background will make the pumpkin and leaves look extra warm.
Pumpkins grow on long, trailing vines and are a kind of fruit because they grow from a flower and hold seeds inside. They can be orange, but some pumpkins are white, green, or even bluish gray. A pumpkinβs curved sections are called ribs. Turkeys and pumpkins are often seen in Thanksgiving decorations because they both remind people of the fall harvest season.
