Halloween Gourd Painting

Since we cannot have pumpkin carving programs at our university because they promote the use of candles (which are illegal in the residents' rooms), we decided to create a program as an alternative to carving pumpkins.  We had residents paint small gourds instead.  As side entertainment, we showed scary movies and gave out tons of Halloween candy!!!

Materials needed:
    paint     paintbrushes     gourds     scary movies     lots of Halloween candy
