Christmas is coming! The goose is getting fat and the crafters are getting frantic... If you need a cheap and easy craft for the toddler in your life, this felt activity board might be just the thing:
The same style as the
felt game board, the activity board is
geared to the younger set and features shapes and colors: matching on one side and a playmat on the other*. It also goes together MUCH more quickly -- once you have the pieces cut out, assembling the board takes around an hour.
Work on
matching and fine motor skills by buttoning the matching shapes and/or letter(s):
And then engage in
creative play by adding windows and door(s) to your house:
Store the pieces in the large button-closure pockets, and roll up the board for
easy on-the-go playing (and learning) -- and hopefully a peaceful trip and waiting-room session. :)
*The matching side can also easily be made into a tic-tac-toe board like on the game board for an older, but not quite ready for checkers, child. And of course you could also change the playmat to feature whatever you wanted.
