Pumpkin Exploration

What is inside of a pumpkin?  Some guesses were "candy", "sticks", "gross slime" and "pumpkin meat".  When we opened it up, we found seeds and "stringy and slimy stuff" (pulp).  

Our Pumpkin Observations:

The outside of the pumpkin was hard, orange, a little bumpy and had a stem on top.

The inside was squishy, wet, slimy, a little soft and had seeds all over.  The seeds were fun to pull out and push around on the plate.
