hom·o·nym
1. a word the same as another in sound and spelling but different in meaning, as chase “to pursue” and chase “to ornament metal.”

In the case of this game, it can be spelled different.

This is how the game works:

You have to think of a homonym (example: Two, To, Too) and make a sentence for each meaning, substituting the word with "pumpkin"

EXAMPLE:

Quote:
I have pumpkin hands.
Can I have a fork pumpkin?
Pass it down pumpkin Gracie.


The next person must guess what the word is, then post their own homonym (in orange, of course). To make it interesting, try to make awesome sentences (without giving the word away too easily! Err, I mean pumpkin easily).

I will start:

"Don't pick the prickly pumpkin by the paw
When you pick a pumpkin
Try to use the claw."

A pumpkin of glowing eyes stared back at him from beneath the bed.
