Felt Fun

Emily's Ladybug Counting Felt Set

I have seen many posts about felt boards and how much children enjoy them. I remember them from when I was little and have even used them with my own Sunday School classes, but I never thought about using them with Emily.

While searching the web I found a really cute ladybug poem that would go really well with a felt board. So the other day we headed to A.C. Moore in search of felt.

Emily loved putting the spots on the ladybug as I read the poem. I think we did it at least 4 times before she wanted to do something else and then she asked me to read it again a little bit later!

With your spot, your very first one.

I think I am now addicted to Felt Board activities, I already have two more in the works!
