About the Scarecrow

A scarecrow is a figure shaped like a person, dressed in old clothes and stood up in a field to frighten birds away from the seeds and crops. Farmers around the world have used them for thousands of years to protect what they plant. They are also a familiar sight in autumn, tied to harvest time and the countryside. Trace the arms and hat on this printable, then color the scarecrow's patched clothes for a fall activity.

  • Scarecrows are put in fields to keep birds off newly planted seeds and growing crops.
  • Farmers have used scarecrows for more than three thousand years.
  • They are a well-known symbol of farms and the autumn harvest.
