For the scarecrow’s face, grab some cardstock paper. We made two circles for the eyes and two for the cheeks, plus a classic triangle for the nose. Super simple and oh-so-cute!

Pro Tip: If you’re doing this in the classroom, consider cutting out a variety of facial features beforehand. That way, students can mix and match to create their very own unique scarecrow faces!
