Felt Board Stories

Posted in Fun With Felt

My kids LOVE felt board stories.  Even my 11 year old will usually drop what he is doing and come participate when I pull out the felt.  We have a lot of felt stories, all of which I have made.  Many years ago my husband cut me a piece of plywood just the right size to fit into a king size pillow case.  I covered it with grey felt on one side and on the other side I used green and sky blue to make a landscape scene.

As far as the felt board stories I have gotten ideas from all over and have made them in a variety of ways.  If they are simple enough I just cut the pieces out of felt.  More detailed pieces I will look for graphics online and the print them on card stock and put felt on the back of the card stock.  I also have some where I took heavy weight interfacing (not the iron on kind) and traced the graphics on to them and then colored them with color pencils.

This one is 5 Little Monkeys and I got it from the website Preschool Printables

This one is It Looked Like Spilt Milk I made it from white felt and I let the kids put up the pieces as I read from the book.

This one is the song Hush Little Baby I made it from interfacing

To store my felts and make them easily accessable I have 3 BIG binders with clear page protectors inside.  I keep the pieces for each story as well as a copy of the story to read from in the protectors.

These are my felt story binders.

I'm sorry I never came to visit your blog before, to be honest, I never have seen you around. I haven't read up to here, I went to your achives and was glad to find this, THANKS!!!! I love this idea.

Anyway, I have a message for you from Jen aka Jammie....she had to change her blog due to lurkers, so I told her I would discretely tell some of her friends about the move while she sets up her new blog. Her new ID is heartmatters. Stop by and let her know you are aware of the change.

I look forward to coming back and reading more later.

God Bless,
Amber

I, too, found this blog via an internet search. I just created some of my own felt projects by printing pictures onto the Iron On Transfer paper from Avery and then ironing it to the felt and cutting out. We also purchased the alphabet iron ons and use them for titles. Very quick and easy. Just thought that I'd pass along the idea.
