DIRECTIONS

1.Use CRAYOLA Crayons to color the tops of paper lunch bags green or brown for pumpkin stems. Color the rest of the bags in pumpkin colors (oranges, browns, yellows, and greens). For a textured effect, remove the paper crayon wrappers. Place bags on top of textured surfaces and rub with the side of the crayon. Layer colors for a deep pumpkin look.

2.Open up your colored bags and fill with lightly crumpled recycled newspaper. Twist tops closed at the stem bottoms.

3.If you wish, make eyes, a nose, and a mouth for Halloween jack-o’-lanterns. Cut facial features from construction paper or white paper colored with dark crayons. Glue in place with CRAYOLA School Glue.

4.Add cut-paper vines and leaves to display with your field full of plump pumpkins.
