Young kids love nursery rhymes and can learn so much from them. This Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater printable is perfect for your fall lessons. 

This is the season for pumpkins! Pumpkin foods. Pumpkin drinks. Pumpkin crafts. Pumpkin learning. It’s the perfect time to introduce – or reacquaint – your little one to Peter.

Poor Peter trapped his wife in a pumpkin shell where he, apparently, kept her very well.

Because of the nature of nursery rhymes being very short, you’ll likely only find them in a book of rhymes such as Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater and Friends.
