Kids lollipop stick scarecrow!

I made these with my second graders.
You will need:
7 pale wooden lollipop sticks LARGE
8 yellow lollipop sticks SMALL
Brown card
Yellow card
Orange card
Blue Card
Kids craft eyes

You need to glue together the seven large lollipop sticks and wait until they dry.

During the time you are waiting for these things to dry together you can be cutting a hat shape out of the brown card. A flower out of the orange and yellow card and a blue ribbon for the hat out of card.

Your lollipop sticks should be dry, so now you need to get 6 of the small lollipop sticks and glue them three on each side on the front of the large lollipop sticks like the picture above. And then glue the two remaining lollipop sticks on behind the large lollipop sticks.

While waiting for that to dry on cut out a nose out of the orange card and stick on the googly craft eyes and glue the hat on like the picture above. 

Letting the kids do their own spin on this is crucial! but sometimes a theme is best!

The student I used for the pic above is Emily, a very talented girl who has an edge for art!
