Flannelboard
This flannelboard was a lot of fun to make and to share. I've seen the flannelboard a few places, but I decided to add my own little addition to it with cream and clouds at the end of the rainbow. Happy little clouds make it look more complete and even more adorable! Sadly, it is the wrong time of year to find a cheap plastic cauldron to mix the rainbow stew in. Had I been thinking I might have been able to find one before St. Patrick's day, but as it is, there were none to be found. I just temporarily covered a big yogurt tub with black felt, but I'll keep an eye out for a cauldron come Halloween, or maybe I'll make a felt one! I used this for my colors storytime and soup storytime.

Hi Heather,
ReplyDeleteIt looks like I already pinned this set a few weeks ago--not sure if I messed up and it wasn't included in the roundup, but anyway. I'll pin it to the This Week pinterest page, but I'll skip adding it back in to all the other pages since it's on them all! :)
Yeah, I thought it got pinned, but I hadn't submitted it for anything until this week, so I'm not sure what happened with that! No big deal either way :)
