Bring Everyone Together for The Scarecrows’ Wedding Challenge
There’s plenty to celebrate with Harry O’Hay and Betty O’Barley! The Scarecrows’ Wedding Challenge takes inspiration from the story’s farmyard setting and themes of friendship and teamwork, turning them into hands-on activities that everyone can get involved with.
Get crafty making scarecrows and decorations, head to the kitchen for some themed baking, try your hand at games and scavenger hunts or venture outdoors to plant flowers and explore. You could even put on a performance of your own! With plenty of different activities to choose from, you can shape the challenge around your group, ages and interests.
Planning for Rainbows, Brownies, Beavers or Cubs? Bringing a favourite story into the classroom? Or simply looking for something different to do together at home? Dip into the FREE downloadable challenge pack, choose the activities that work for you and make the adventure your own.
Once you’ve completed your challenge, there’s a colourful embroidered badge waiting to mark the occasion. Sew it onto a blanket, backpack or tote bag, jacket or add it to a wider badge collection as a reminder of all the things you made, tried and discovered along the way.
