About the Holiday

Build a Scarecrow Day is a day to do just that, build a scarecrow. A scarecrow is used in gardens to discourage birds, like crows, from destroying the crop. Celebrate today by getting everyone involved in making a homemade scarecrow, the kids are sure to have fun. Even if you do not have a garden, you probably know someone who does, and if not, your scarecrow will make for a great yard decoration come Fall.
