Here is a new flannel board set for the book It Looked Like Spilt Milk, by Charles G. Shaw. This book, about a cloud that makes different shapes, will go well with a Weather theme.
To make these, I printed them on card stock paper, laminated and cut out, and added a Velcro tab to the back (the sticky side of the Velcro) to use on a flannel board. You could also put magnets on the back to use on a magnetic board or a cookie sheet.
These cards could be used to retell the story, sequence the story, or match to beginning letter sounds. You could also use them for a rhyming activity by placing a few of the cards on the board: use 2 cards or as many as 6 cards, depending on the level of your group. Call out a word and ask them to find the card that rhymes. For example, call out “jig” for the child to find pig. Use silly words as needed. Examples:
- rabbit: babbit, habit
- bird: word, heard
- tree: bee, three
- ice cream: mice dream
- flower: tower, bower
- pig: wig, jig
- cake: snake, lake
- sheep: jeep, keep
- owl: fowl, howl
- mitten: smitten, kitten
- squirrel: whirl, swirl
- angel: rangel, zangel

I love this SO much. Thank you!
Another thing I always do with this book is fold a piece of blue paper in half and have child put white paint on one side, fold, smooth out and open. Have child dictate what the “cloud” looks like. They love to do over and over.
These projects are so fun! Thanks for sharing
