Personal Felt Boards




These were really easy and fun to make. I got the idea from the Martha Stewart site and made mini ones instead of one big one. This could be a fun thing for your home school closet (it's where I put mine) to practice ABC's, tell stories, talk about colors, shapes, really anything!

Just get masonite board and cut into 8x10 pieces (my husband did this for me, I'm totally a girl when it comes to that stuff). Spray adhesive spray and cover with felt. I used foam letters and kid creations from the craft store and glued them to felt pieces and cut out felt shapes. You can also cut out pictures from coloring books, magazines or whatever and either stick a sticky backed velcro piece to it or laminate it and glue it to felt to have pieces to tell stories or whatever great things you can think to do with them.

I put mine in a photo frame that I just took the glass out of but you could just leave them plain as well. Very fun.
