All About Scarecrows

SCARECROW WORKSHOP
SEPTEMBER 11, 2010

The Leffingwell House Museum and the Society of the Founders of Norwich is proud to send you "Scarecrow Greetings". Please distribute copies freely to be colored by children and adults for display.

FAQ's

Does the scarecrow need to stay on the paper? Nope. Cut it out and paste it to a piece of light cardboard or fabric or whatever you can come up with.
Can it only be colored with crayons, pen or pencils? Nope. Try other things. Perhaps you'll want to glue on pieces of fabric instead of coloring it.
Is it ok to draw a scarecrow instead of using this one? Absolutely! Each scarecrow should be an individual work of art.

Display them all proudly! No two scarecrows should be the same. Use your imagination.
