Create a Paper Plate Scarecrow

My children and I have always loved fall.   We love the crispness of the cooler temperatures.   We love the beauty of the blue sky with the leaves that are changing colors.   We've always enjoyed using scarecrows to decorate with.   One year we made a stuffed scarecrow at a Fall party we went to.  It was so much fun.   We had a race to see who could completely make a scarecrow first.   I found this cute paper plate scarecrow that you can make with your child.

Create your own scarecrow - one of the most popular symbols of autumn.   It's a great project  for ages preschool, kindergarten, and elementary.
