Popsicle Stick Scarecrow

Hi, friends!  Fall is in full swing, and I have a ton of great ideas for you to fall into this fall!  My favorite is this popsicle stick scarecrow, inspired by This Girl’s Life Blog?!  Isn’t it adorable?!

Create this simple fall DIY popsicle stick scarecrow for a super cute fall craft for kids!

POPSICLE STICK SCARECROW CRAFT

This popsicle stick scarecrow was so easy to make!  Here’s what you’ll need…

  • 12 popsicle sticks
  • Orange paint
  • Flesh-colored paint
  • Raffia
  • Googly eyes
  • Orange felt
  • Fall flower
  • Black permanent marker
  • Magnets
  • Hot glue gun

First, you’ll need to trim two of the popsicle sticks.

Line up nine of the popsicle sticks to create somewhat of a square.

Attach the two trimmed popsicle sticks across the back using a hot glue gun.

If you’ll be having your students paint these, I would draw a diagonal line across the top so that they know where to paint the orange and flesh-colored paint.  I did not do this for myself, but I will definitely be doing this for my kiddos.

Paint the remaining popsicle stick orange.  This will be used to create the brim of the scarecrow’s hat.

Attach the hat brim, googly eyes, felt nose, fall flower and raffia hair using a hot glue gun.  Draw on a cute scarecrow mouth, and your popsicle stick scarecrow is complete!  Isn’t he so stinkin’ cute?!

FALL ACTIVITIES

To go along with our cute popsicle stick scarecrow, we’ll be learning a simple scarecrow poem that we’ll place inside of our poetry binders.  After reading the poem each day, we will complete a different activity… including locating the word wall words, learning the word “big,” practicing the sh- digraph, and highlighting the capital letters.

      Would it be possible to use tacky glue instead of hot glue and have it stay? I want to do this with my classroom of two-year-olds, but I’m afraid hot glue is too dangerous to have around even if I’m the only one using it.
      Thank you for sharing such a great craft

        Thank you! I think tacky glue would work! I used a low temp glue gun, but I agree that this would be a little too dangerous for your kiddos!
