ICYMI: What does a teal pumpkin mean?

This is the teal pumpkin project. 1. Buy in addition or instead of candy, toys (spider rings, bouncy balls, poppers, pencils, erasers, ect.). Then go online and print a teal pumpkin, or paint one. The next step is to repost this and use #tealpumkin or #tealpumpkinproject Trust me, you will make someone’s night.
