It's time to start thinking about what kind of design you want to carve into your pumpkin this year. I've taken the time to dig through the Internet to find the best sites that offer FREE pumpkin carving stencils. Here are the top ten!

1. Goofy Looking Frankenstein

I found this incredibly cute Frankenstein stencil at pumpkinlady.com. She calls it the "Der?" pattern. There are about 50 other free stencils there that would be great to do with the kids. In addition to free stencils, she also offers pattern books for $5.00. Check out the "faith" pattern book as well as the "historic" book. You can also find helpful tips here and step-by-step instructions on how to carve a pumpkin.

2. Friendly Ghost

Your kids will love to help carve this friendly ghost available at celebrating-halloween.com. Have the kids give him a name and set him out on the porch. Boo! Explore the site to also get some ideas on more fun you can have with your kids during Halloween season!

3. Sponge Bob

Carve Sponge Bob Square Pants into your pumpkin this year and don't worry - there is a free Patrick pattern as well along with all of Sponge Bob's other friends!

4. Wicked Queen

This pumpkin stencil is easy to do and features the Wicked Queen from Snow White holding her apple. You can find other Disney villain pumpkin stencils at pumpkinglow.com.

5. Happy Pumpkin

Check out this really simple, but cute pumpkin face pattern that Reader's Digest offers. If you're wanting something basic, this one will surely do the trick!

6. Cat Face

For all you cat lovers out there, take a look at this adorable Halloween cat face pattern. It's long whiskers and happy face will surely make the neighborhood kids smile!

7. Happy Halloween

Get your message across easy by displaying this Happy Halloween pattern by your doorstep. Hershey's also offers several other really cute stencils on their website for free.

8. Haunted Mansion

Try this Haunted Mansion stencil available at Better Homes & Gardens. If circles are hard for you to carve, you can easily omit the moon behind the mansion. Better Homes & Gardens also has 37 other free pumpkin carving templates for you to choose from. They also have a stencil maker for you to play with.

9. Stem-Nosed

I thought the idea to use the stem for the pumpkin's nose was a super cute idea! You can find the template here courtesy of Martha Stewart.

10. "Oh, No!" Pumpkin

Disney had a great idea to get the kids involved. It's a pumpkin with a surprised face holding his "hands" up! The cool thing is, the hands are actually a stencil of your child's! Check it out here.

Happy Halloween!
