So finally we went on a homeschooling class trip, and brought home way too many beautiful pumpkins! Then we were told we just had to carve them ASAP!!
When the time came to carve had arrived we told the kids, "After lunch we will carve them."
Well, they did all the morning chores, extra well, and without any fusing. They ate all their breakfast, and even made lunch and brought it to us! They laid out the newspaper and got out all the supplies.
They told us how happy they were, and how - I quote "I have been waiting and waiting for this day all year!!" I even thought to myself - we should use pumpkin carving as a bribe more often - and then I remembered why we didn't.
And not 5 minutes after the faces had been drawn on the pumpkin the kids split to the swing-set and we were left doing the dirty work.
