What You’ll Need

White paper
Peeled Crayons (fall colors)
Pencil
Scissors
Large electric flat pancake griddle
Foil
Pair of old socks
Paper Plate
Glue/stapler
Sharpie Marker

Instructions

Cover griddle with foil. Plug in the griddle to heat up.

Place the old socks on your child's hands to protect them from the griddle.

Place white paper on griddle once hot.

Color on the white paper and see the crayons melt. You can also do this on the paper plate if you choose, I recommend you use a brown crayon for the paper plate.

Once the white paper is covered in all fall colors, take it off and turn off/unplug the griddle.

On the table place your child's hand on the on the paper and trace as many hands as you can out of this colorful paper. Cut the hands out and glue to the back of the paper plate.

Draw a turkey face on the paper plate. You know have a colorful turkey. To enjoy the most out of the colors hang the turkey in the window.

Alterations: Cut a round circle out of the crayon melt paper and glue the hands on to it. You can also use crayon melting to create beautiful fall leaves.
