**I recommend checking out local farm stands or farmer’s markets for the mini-pumpkins. I found mine at a local family-owned farm stand and was able to get 25 of them for the class! I also love supporting local so there is that as well! You can also use faux pumpkins, they have some at The Dollar Tree!
I made a very similar one of these using a larger craft pumpkin and some Duck Tape for my inside décor! These are smaller and it was the perfect activity for the class to do!

Supplies Needed for Pumpkin Mummies:
- Medical Gauze
- Googly Eyes Consider these adhesive-backed options if making this with small kids!
- Hot Glue Gun & Hot Glue Sticks
- First Aid Paper Tape
- Scissors
- Mini Pumpin or Faux Mini Pumpkin
Besides the pumpkins and already having my glue gun, I was able to find all my supplies at my local Dollar Tree! {They also have those bright orange foam pumpkins you could use instead of real ones also!}
How to Make Mini Pumpkin Mummies
I started out by cutting the gauze pads into thin strips. If you can find a roll of gaze you can use that too, just fold it in half or cut it in half (the whole roll).
I started off by taking two googly eyes and using my hot glue gun and glue sticks to glue eyes on my pumpkin. (I did this on all the pumpkins at home and had them ready to go for our class party)
Next I let the kids use the tape and the gauze strips to cover the pumpkin to create cute little pumpkin mummies! The tape is so much easier for the kids to use than glue! It’s easy to rip themselves and the white blends in perfectly with the gauze.
Repeat the gauze strips and criss cross them all over the pumpkin to give the appearance of a mummy!
When finished, you have yourself a cute mini pumpkin mummy!
