The carved pumpkin everyone pictures when they hear halloween: round eyes, a triangle nose, a grin with square teeth top and bottom, and a curled stem. On this halloween coloring page the ribs run wide and unbroken, so a thick marker fills them in one pass, and the cut-out face stays white to read as lit from inside. Cut around the outline and tape it to a window. The smiling pumpkin is the cartoon version with arms and legs.
