Felt Storyboard Activity

I love doing felt board activities with the girls (I think I like them more than they do!) and here is a recent activity that E(1) and I did...

I printed the felt story pieces for Polar Bear, Polar Bear What Do You Hear? from Kiz Club. After cutting out the pieces, I glued a small square of sandpaper on the back of each piece. As E and I read the story, I put the pieces on our felt board.

After we finished the story, E had fun matching the pictures.



I love all of the story pieces at Kiz Club, and I'm planning to make a bigger felt board this weekend!

  2. So happy to have come across your blog and your creative ideas! The KizClub site is new to me -thanks for all the great story props I will now have at my disposal. Please tell me...you said you printed the felt pieces. How is this accomplished? Do you use iron-on transfer paper? Thanks again for sharing!

  3. Sandpaper for flannel boards. Is that cheaper than flannel?

    My daughter has the attic door in her bedroom. I was considering turning it into a flannel board for her to play with.

  4. Meg- I printed the story pieces onto cardstock and glued sandpaper to the back. They stick easily to the felt board.
    Tara- I used sandpaper because I have plenty of it (not sure if it's cheaper), and it works great!

  6. Thanks for the link-had never visited that website and my kindergartner is ever grateful for the character printouts of Dear Zoo. Just prior to the class field trip to the zoo.
