Maybe it’s because I love the book Scarecrow Pete, or maybe it’s because I grew up watching Wizard of Oz.  Either way, I think scarecrows are fun. When I see scarecrows start popping up in seasonal decor, I just have to smile.  We love crafting for the seasons,  so I thought I’d share a scarecrow paper plate craft with you.  This one is fun and allows room for creative expression.

Fun Scarecrow Books for Kids

I mentioned that I love the book Scarecrow Pete. It’s a tremendously fun book! Scarecrow Pete is no ordinary scarecrow! He’s a straw-filled dreamer who uses books to transport himself to new places. When a visitor discovers him, the two use books to travel and experience new lands and explore.  Scarecrow Pete is sure to become a fast family favorite.  Grab your copy today!
