I made one jack o'lantern
With a winter squash I grew
My mama said spooktacular!
Can you show me too?

So we made two jack o'lanterns
With two pumpkins that we grew
My daddy said spooktacular!
Can I try that too?

So we made three jack o'lanterns
With three turnips that we grew
My brother said spooktacular!
Can you show me too?

So we made four jack o'lanterns
Out of bell peppers we grew
My grandpa said spooktacular!
Can I try that too?

Then we made five jack o'lanterns
Out of watermelon too
My grandma said spooktacular!
Look what our garden grew!

Five watermelon
Four bell peppers
Three turnips
Two pumpkins and one squash

We made our jack o'lanterns
From the things our garden grew
Let's light them up for Halloween
And now they will go boo

Spooktacular! Spooktacular!
