1 is DEFINITELY Pajama Sam 3, aka "You Are What You Eat From Your Head To Your Feet". The pumpkin scene in question involves putting a pumpkin on your head to get into a "gourd-only" area.
2 is definitely Science Blaster Jr., a less successful spinoff of the Blaster series.

Memories of my childhood flood in as I try to remember my favorite EdutainmentGames:
1. Which Pajama Sam game has the main character throwing a rock at the prison gate and wearing a pumpkin to sneak past the guards?
2. This other game is a science game featuring two green astronauts, both male and female, and a blue robot. There are songs about coke and the (then) nine planets and different minigames. There's one where you arrange the events in order; one where you sort the healthy foods from the junk foods, paint the eggs, and deliver ice cubes by freezing the water drops; a weather station where you dress up the blue robot for different climate conditions; and a size comparison chart where you line up other animals against the biggest, smallest, and longest creatures. Does this ring any bells?
