Holiday Placemats!
These placemats made personally by your toddler will
be a hit at the holiday feast. You might want to prepare
the felt pieces before working on this project with your
toddler. Cut out a strip about an inch wide of the green
felt lengthwise. Then cut out some trees from the green
felt. Cut a thin strip of white and some small square
pieces for the snow. Then take some red felt and cut a
few small squares and rectangles for the presents. Now,
with your toddler, take a blue sheet of felt and put it
on a flat working surface. Then let your toddler help to
put the green strip of grass along one side of the blue
felt. Next, let your toddler place the trees near the
grass. Now add the snow strip on top of the grass and
the snowflakes in the air! The final touch is to add the
presents under the tree! When the masterpiece is
finished, just take some contact paper and lay it over
the felt picture. Turn it over and fold the rest of the
contact paper over the back. You have now sealed your
felt artwork inside the contact paper so that you have a
beautiful holiday placemat! Great job!
