Fall Friendship

Imagine your best friend is a scarecrow in a pumpkin patch. How would you spend your day together?

This imaginative writing prompt helps children to explore the realm of fantasy and the idea of unusual friendships. Since a scarecrow is such a staple image of fall, this helps children tie in the essence of the season with their imaginative narratives. It also encourages them to consider empathy, understanding, and companionship in exploring their relationship with their scarecrow friend.
