The Missing Scarecrow

18 mins

Windy day. This morning, Edie notices that the scarecrow is missing from the nursery vegetable patch. It had vanished. Edie asks PC Plum if he could help find the missing scarecrow. He was looking at his teas at the moment. Edie described the scarecrow as a missing person emergency. Brown flippy-floppy hat, black trousers, red scarf, carrot for nose, brown coat and a pumpkin head. PC Plum found all these things in his cupboard. He'd mistaken it for a burglar, so he pushed it. He tells Edie he had a thief in the vegetable patch, and he arrested it. Edie thought he was so brave. PC Plum tells he had him pushed and his head came off... Edie gets thought he arrested the scarecrow, so she describes PC Plum as a silly sausage. Edie takes the broken scarecrow to Archie to build it up again. If anyone could fix it, Archie could. And he does, too, with a little help from all the children: Archie builds a new scarecrow, better than the previous, he only uses the pumpkin head and the carrot nose from the old one, and he used a cleaning stick head to make hair from it. He collected some sticks and put them in cross. Archie hung an old coat, a new hat and a kilt on it. They built it up in the nursery, it was a recycled scarecrow. They drew the eyes and they threw some wool on it. Archie found an old red scarf in the castle and hung it to the scarecrow. Suddenly all the children wanted to hang their scarfs onto the scarecrow. They sang together Dingle dangle scarecrow song, and all acted out he/she was a scarecrow. They had a great time.
