Use the sheets as...  FELT BOARD CHARACTERS

• Either print the black and white sheet to color
  OR
• print the color page
• You can cover with clear contact paper or laminate if you want them to last longer.
• Cut out each character.
• Cut out a small piece of coarse sandpaper and tape or glue it on the back of each character (if you laminated, it will need to be a larger piece of sandpaper).  The sandpaper will allow the characters to stick on your felt board.
• The nursery rhyme is quite short, but if you own a felt board it's still nice to put up felt board characters and point to them as they are mentioned in the nursery rhyme.
