How does one put a pumpkin on his head in Minecraft? My brother tried it and it didn't work.

Make sure you are dragging the pumpkin into your helmet slot.

And note that you can only wear normal pumpkins; Jack'o'lanterns will not work.

You can not be wearing a helmet when you try this. Obvious, but it might be what is wrong

You can always just place it on the head, but you can also try the command (will only work with commands enabled):

/replaceitem entity @p slot.armor.head minecraft:pumpkin
