Hi everyone! I’ve recently become aware that there are many videos online showing teachers, childcare providers and librarians telling felt board stories! I thought I’d share them here in case you’d like to see the techniques they use, or just for fun to show the kids!

Father’s Day - Poems, Songs, Gifts to Make and Books to Read

Posted by funfelt on Wednesday Jun 4, 2008 Under Holidays and Seasons

Here are some poems, songs, and home-made gifts to present to Dad this Father’s Day!

FATHER’S DAY POEMS:
(Great on hand made cards!)

Daddy Handprint Poem

Here are my handprints
So tiny and small
The ones that clasped your hands Daddy
The ones on the wall.

Press them in your memories Daddy,
Press them in your heart
Never let go of me Daddy,
Never let us part.

Right now they’re good for touching
And crawling on the floors
Hold them tightly in your hands Daddy
They fit so perfectly in yours.

Soon I’ll be big like you,
Our hands will be the same
But you will always be my Daddy,
And I will always proudly carry your name.
