Friendly Scarecrow and Birds in a Thanksgiving Pumpkin Cornfield
Coloring guide
With his arms stretched wide on a wooden post, this happy scarecrow has two little birds keeping him company, one on the brim of his patched, floppy hat and one on his plaid sleeve. He's dressed in a bandana and overalls with a front pocket, round buttons and a patch on the knee. Straw sticks out of his hat, sleeves and pant cuffs. Tall corn stalks with ripe ears stand on both sides, and three pumpkins with curly vines and leaves sit at the bottom, while a wooden fence and rolling hills fill the background. Red and yellow plaid on the shirt looks good with bright orange pumpkins below. The free printable PDF has big open shapes for crayons and lots of small details for markers, so it suits a fall classroom or a Thanksgiving table. Add this to your Thanksgiving coloring page collection, alongside New Year and Easter.
