Scarecrows!

Cheekwood Botanical Gardens will be hosting an exhibit this fall called Scarecrows. To create the exhibit they are asking people (individuals or small groups) to create scarecrows to be displayed in the gardens during the fall months.

I think this would be so much fun for my Literacy Launchpad students to participate in! We could create a scarecrow, and then have a special Saturday where we meet at the gardens for a storytime and scarecrow tour.

The challenge here is how do I have a large number of preschool children all help create a weather durable scarecrow? Any ideas? I would love to hear them!
