With the dawn of fall comes falling leaves, cornucopia, apples, and of course Thanksgiving and Pilgrims. We wanted to celebrate the fall with a festive Thanksgiving Food Craft for the kids – Pilgrim Hats. The recipe craft is simple, cookies, Rolos, starburst and melting chocolates.

These would be a great snack for a Thanksgiving class party! Just check for allergies in the classroom.

Enjoy these festive Pilgrim Hats for your Thanksgiving Dessert. They will be a fun Thanksgiving Tradition with the kids!
