The Rainbow Fish Felt Board Story



This is my newest version, but the Rainbow Fish was one of the first felt stories I made as an Early  Childhood Educator, actually I made it for a practicum assignment. I have told the story so many times, and all ages enjoy it! I place some scotch tape behind the sparkly scales so they can be moved onto the other fish and then at the end of the story replaced back. The technique lasts for a long time!

Christmas Felt Board Poem

When I was working as a preschool teacher, my co-worker gave me a home made gift of felt pieces and a poem with all the staff's name inside. I thought it was so adorable, that I borrowed her idea.  Here is one of my versions.


 
 
 
FIVE CHRISTMAS COOKIES




Five Christmas Cookies with icing galore
Jenny ate the Christmas wreath
And now there are four.
Four Christmas cookies, sitting close to me.
Joey ate the star shaped one
And now there are three.
Three Christmas cookies, staring back at you.
Sally ate the red stocking
And now there are two.
Two Christmas cookies, one who likes to run.
Freddy ate that gingerbread
And now there is one.
One cookie left, let’s go to the store
And buy more ingredients
So we can bake some more.
