education
platform
​
Pumpkins are a great vehicle for teaching educational lessons in a fun way. In Gourdo's first adventure, he learns the fundamental truth, “you can BE whoever you want to be”. The opportunities for learning with Gourdo are endless - ranging from social and emotional, to the exploration of life experience and problem solving.

​
The Halloween space doesn’t have lovable, fun, educational characters that children can relate to. Our Gourdies can be 3D sculptures, photo ops, movies, animated videos, social media sensations, animations, games, plush toys, mascots, storybooks, live events, etc.
