Pumpkin Carving Gift Guide

To help make your Fall pumpkin carving a huge success I have put together this Pumpkin Carving Gift Guide.

One of my families favorite Fall activities is Pumpkin Carving. We make a big production out of it from going to the local pumpkin patch and picking out the perfect pumpkins for the kids and adults to carve.

To getting the family all together to carve the pumpkins and do fun Fall crafts with the kids.

Best Pumpkin Carving Kits

We love carving pumpkins. We make a big deal out of it. The adults get involved and we try to out do each other with our pumpkin carving designs.

Last year I found a great  pumpkin carving tool kit that is for the serious pumpkin carver. It comes with a case to safely store the carving tools for next year and stencils.

My son in-law Scott has some mad awesome pumpkin carving skills so when I saw this awesome pumpkin carving kit I bought us both one.

This pumpkin carving tool kit has a sturdy walnut handle and comes with interchangeable blades that make carving those intricate pumpkin designs so much easier.

I saw this awesome Pumpkin Carving Kit on Amazon recently and it comes with 18 high quality pumpkin carving tools. It’s called the Grampa Bardeen’s Family Pumpkin Carving Set. 

Grampa Bardeen was apparently a master pumpkin carver. It’s a little out of my price range but if you need an really awesome gift for someone who has everything and loves to carve pumpkins this would be great.

Best Pumpkin Carving Tool Kit for Kids

When it comes to pumpkin carving with kids safety should be your number one priority. Carving pumpkins will always include  some type of pointy or sharp  carving tool.

In most cases of pumpkin carving your child with be handling a sharp carving tool. Most pumpkin carving kits, even the ones marketed to children include at least one tool that has a sharp blade.

You know your child better than anyone and whether or not your child is mature enough to use a sharp pumpkin carving tool.

You should always monitor children when they are using even plastic pumpkin carving tools. Children should always have adult supervision when carving pumpkins.

Parents can do the more difficult pumpkin carving with a sharp carving tool for small children then let them use the safer plastic carving tools.

Pumpkin Masters Pumpkin Carving Kits are probably familiar to most anyone who has ever bought a pumpkin carving kit. It comes with everything you need for the kids to have fun carving and glow in the dark painting a pumpkin.
