Craft Stick Scarecrows Supplies:

* Wavy Paddle Fan Sticks
* Various Colors of Sharpie Markers
* Low Temp Hot Glue Gun
* Brown Pipe Cleaners
* Colored Cardstock
* Basic Craft Scissors
optional – glitter, sequins, feather etc

Directions:

* First have children “draw/color” in the scarecrow face and clothing on the popsicle stick shape using Sharpie makers {you can also use paint and paint brushes instead, for this step!}
* Repeat for each scarecrow you are making. Set aside.
* Get your glue gun hot and ready.
* Grab ONE pipe cleaner per scarecrow. Bend it to make arms for the scarecrow. Hot glue it to the back of the popsicle stick shape.
* While that is drying, have children cut out a paper hat for the scarecrow from the cardstock.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Scarecrow – have children glue the cardstock hat piece to the popsicle stick piece and add other embellishments you see fit before displaying/playing with proudly!!!
