Music felt board - PDF pattern

Start teaching your kids music with a little game. It's easier for kids to learn something if they can manipulate and feel some items. For this reason I made a felt board with detachable note, with a treble clef and staff.

Activities to make with kids:

1. Talk about music notions: the staff, the treble clef, the notes.

2. Explain how to put the notes: on the lines or between the lines.

3. Count the notes.

4. Sort them by colors. 

5. Invent a song about a bird.

6. Play with detachable pieces: the bird, the sun, the clouds.

2. Talk about the family: a mother duck and a duckling, a mother owl and her baby.
3. Invent a short story for bedtime.

Easter Felt Quiet Book

Ready for Easter? I do. I sew a bunny and some eggs. This is my Easter book for kindergarten and preschool. Like it?

I made 5 colorful manipulative eggs that your kids can move on their colors and put back in the basket. Ready for playing? You can count, tell the colors, sing a silly song, invent a short story, teach about in and out, up and down. The bunny finger puppet can help you to make all these things with your kids.

Another book of mine is the Bunny's Garden. It has 10 carrots on a bow and a bunny finger puppet. make addition and subtraction. Talk about what plants grow in a garden, what is the bunny food, tell a story, sing a song, count and play. You can move the carrots on the bow - this is the funniest part for kids.

Count from 1 to 10: 1 sun, 2 clouds, 3 cabbages, 4 flowers, 5 spots on the mushroom, 6 leaves, 7, 8, 9, 10 carrots. Play I spy ...

Happy Easter.
Ema and a bunny. 

Ducks In A Row - felt board

A game is funnier if it has detachable colorful pieces. Because the kids love the colors, love to move the pieces, to keep them in their little hands, to feel and even to smell and taste. :)
I designed this felt board with all these ideas in my minds. I love the song Five Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day ... and the counting is fun.

The board looks like a pond with water, lily pads, waves and rush.

Size for felt board:11.40 x 7.87 inches (29x20 cm); size for pieces - between 0.80 and 2.50 inches (2 and 7 cm). The pieces and the board are made from wool and acrylic blend felt. The board has two ribbons that you can hang on the wall and the ducks have Velcro on the back.

This is a dragon fly. I didn't sew the wings to seem more real. 

The ducks have Velcro on the back so you can play with them in different ways.

1.Sing the song with your kid
2.Lear the numbers and count the ducks
3.Tell a story about ducks and their family
4.Play "I spy..." and search for clouds, waterlilies, butterfly and dragonfly
5.Use the board as decor in the nursery room
6.Give it as present 
7.Use in your classroom
