Fall is definitely my favorite season. With the weather cooling down, flannel, apple picking and all things pumpkin, it really is a great time of year.
One thing that we always we while out doing the fall festivities is of course scarecrows. From farms to grocery stores, they are always being used as a seasonal decoration.
I wanted to create a simple Fall craft and thought that the scarecrow would be the perfect imagery to work with.

It can be used at home, in the classroom, in a library setting, at parties or anywhere else that needs some festive Fall fun.

- Crayons, markers or colored pencils
- Scissors
- Glue
- Construction paper
How to use the Build a Scarecrow Craft
First, print out the coloring page template using the link at the bottom of this post. You can either print it out onto white printer paper or white cardstock.
Next, using art supplies such as crayons, markers or colored pencils, begin coloring in the shapes that will make up the scarecrow.
Once everything has been colored in you can begin to cut out all of the pieces along the dotted lines. If your child is able to use scissors, this would be a great time for them to practice their scissor skills. If not, you can help them instead.
Take out a piece of construction paper and then begin gluing the parts of the scarecrow together in the correct spots. There is a small reference picture at the bottom of the template page that you can reference.
Once the scarecrow has been completed you can now hang it up around the house or classroom, on the fridge or anywhere else you would like some fun homemade Fall decorations.
