What do you get when you mix a little imagination, a paper hat and a whole bunch of giggles?
That’s exactly what we discovered the other day when we pulled out these free printable scarecrow hat coloring pages.
I wasn’t sure what to expect, was it just another color-and-cut coloring page?
Oh, no.
It turned out to be a full-blown creativity storm!
We ended up making a family of scarecrow hats, each one with its own personality.
Some had pom-pom buttons, others had straw poking out of the top.
It didn’t take long before the living room looked like a tiny, joyful farmyard runway.
Did you know kids can name more words starting with “S” when they’re wearing a scarecrow hat?
At least, that’s what my child told me, and I believe it.
We played “Find the S words” while wearing our hats.
Scissors, straw, silly, smile, stripes, even sandwiches made it onto the list, because making crafts apparently makes kids hungry!
So, if you’re wondering whether this free printable scarecrow hat is just another coloring page, nope.
It’s a launchpad for creativity, giggles and connection.
Whether you’re a classroom teacher trying to tame a busy group or a parent just trying to fill a rainy afternoon with fun, this craft is your secret weapon.
Grab the printable and let the scarecrow silliness begin!
