How to Play Roll & Draw A Scarecrow

Here are the basics for how to play the game, then keep reading to the bottom to add in clever twists!

1. Give each player a Roll A Scarecrow game sheet and something to draw with.

2. Players take turns rolling one die.

3. Each number determines which part of the robot to draw:

• 1 = Head
• 2 = Face
• 3 = Shirt
• 4 = Pants
• 5 = Hat
• 6 = Straw

If a player rolls a number for something they already drew, they skip their turn and wait for the next roll.

4. The first player to finish their scarecrow wins!

That’s it! Simple, quick, and full of giggles. Especially if someone keeps rolling the same number over and over!

How long does this game take? Each game takes about 10 minutes. Just long enough to keep kids entertained without losing their attention.

That’s it! Simple, fast, and full of laughs as everyone ends up with a slightly ridiculous scarecrow creation.

Pro Tip: Print on white cardstock for added durability. You can also store it in a plastic sleeve and use it again!
