Friendly Scarecrow Coloring Page
Preschool · 3–5A smiling scarecrow on a wooden pole, with a floppy hat, a patched shirt, outstretched arms and straw poking out of the sleeves. The hat, face, shirt and patch are separate areas, which makes it a step up from the simplest pages and a cheerful autumn picture for ages three and up.
A scarecrow that would not scare a sparrow
This scarecrow smiles. He stands on a wooden pole with his arms out, wearing a floppy hat with a band, a shirt with a square patch, and straw poking out of each sleeve. The face, hat, shirt and patch are separate, so a child gets to make several choices instead of one.
Scarecrows are a good story starter: what is he guarding, which birds come to the field, and what does he do at night? The patch is a nice detail to talk about too — mending old clothes rather than throwing them away.
