"Scarecrow Festival"

For today's countdown to Halloween's post, a bit of local news and I got some really cool news from Wolfie's preschool recently: they are organizing a "Scarecrow Festival" at the end of the month for the children and their families. I don't know much about what this festival entails, but I know there will be a scarecrow trail with a scarecrow map and some competition. I love scarecrows, which I associate with harvest, autumn and, well, of course Halloween, especially when they are also Jack O'Lanterns like the one on their promotional leaflet. So we will participate as a family and this might be the friendlier Halloween activity which Wolfie will hopefully enjoy and embrace fully.
