Although any actual cutting should be left for the adults, there are plenty of opportunities for children of all ages to participate. Going to a pumpkin patch to pick out the pumpkin is a great beginning.
Tip: When not on display, store your carved pumpkin in the refrigerator with plastic wrap covering all the carved areas.
