I’ve been on a DIY felt board kick lately. I
rediscovered an old board that I made when I was teaching a summer art program
in local libraries. So, I figured – why not use it with a Green Eggs and Ham
theme? If you want to make your own felt board, take a look at my super-simple tutorial. But, if your child wants to make a more permanent piece of art, she
can glue the ham and eggs onto a smaller-sized piece of felt.
Here’s What You’ll Need:
·
Green and white (or lighter green) felt –
You can use a roll of felt or notebook-sized sheets.
·
Another color of felt or a felt board
·
A marker
·
Scissors
Start by reading the Dr. Seuss book Green Eggs and Ham with your child.
Talk about the words and pictures, letting her point to what you’re saying.
Now it’s time for the art-making…
Here’s What to Do:
1. Draw
a ham shape onto the green felt. The ham shape is fairly easy to make. Take a
look at the book and follow the lines. If your child is struggling to draw
directly onto the felt, you can create a card stock template for her to trace
(or she can create her own template!).
2. Draw
circles onto the green felt to make the egg yolks. Have your child draw larger
circles on the white or lighter green felt for the rest of the eggs.
3. Cut
the ham and eggs out.
4. Press
the cut-outs onto a separate felt sheet or your felt board.
And that’s it! So simple. Your child can explore and experiment
with different ways of pressing the felt shapes onto the board or she can add
in characters from other Dr. Seuss stories.
