Which Witch Treat Tray

Trick-or-Treat takes on a new meaning when hungry Halloweeners are met by this generous witch holding a treat tray!

1. Decorate a recycled soda-can box to use as a Halloween treat tray. Use Crayola® Crayons and Crayola Washable Markers to make seasonal drawings on paper. Cut out pictures with Crayola Scissors. Attach images to the outside edge of the tray with Crayola School Glue. Dry.

2. Cut a sheet of black posterboard in half. Roll it into an open-ended cone for the witch's body. Glue the edges of the cone together. Dry.

3. Cut sleeves from the remaining posterboard. Draw wrists and hands on construction paper. Cover your work area with recycled newspaper and dampen markers with a wet Crayola Paint Brush to blend the witch's skin colors. Dry.

4. Glue hands to the sleeves. Glue sleeves to the witch's body. Make a cylinder for the witch's head from construction paper. Cut a 3-D nose into the cylinder. Draw facial features with markers. Glue on construction-paper hair, eyebrows, and a cone witch hat with a circular brim. Add other details to your witch, such as fancy fingernails or spooky jewelry.

5. Attach the witch to the back of the treat tray. Dry. Fill the tray with treats for hungry Halloweeners!

"We offer treats to clients during Halloween. My kids were delighted to make this display for my office!"

The word Halloween is taken from All Hallows Eve, on November 1. That date is All Hollows Day or All Saints' Day. This holiday is an important date on the Catholic calendar, a time to honor saints. People believed that the dead came back to visit their families or friends, and began to call November 1st a holy or Hallowed day. It was to be called All Hallows Day, which was later shortened to Halloween.
