Fall Scarecrow Art Project
By Color Me Creative Art Room

Bring fall creativity into the art room with this Scarecrow Shape & Pattern Art Project designed for grades 1–4. Students build a scarecrow using simple shapes, add facial features and clothing details, decorate the design with repeated patterns, and finish the composition with creative color choices and seasonal details. This lesson gives students an approachable way to practice shape, pattern, color, composition, repetition, and artistic decision-making while creating a cheerful fall artwork. The project is structured enough to support younger students but still leaves plenty of room for individual design choices.
