<br />
This one is from the great Wendy at <i>Flannel Board Fun</i>. Get out your <a href="http://flannelboardfun.blogspot.hk/2017/07/closest-to-hole.html">golf clubs</a> and get ready to talk about positional words! I LOVE this game and her philosophy of highlighting positions and relations instead of who won.<br />
<br />
Tara at <i>Storytime with Miss Tara and Friends </i>has a birthday celebration happening right now! Check out her <a href="http://storytimewithmisstara.blogspot.com/2017/07/10-layer-birthday-cake.html?m=1">ten layer birthday cake</a>!<br />
<br />
I haven't been doing regular storytimes, so there are fewer flannel boards from me. But if you're interested in what I have been working on, check out my library's website for caregivers of <a href="https://arapahoelibraries.org/browse/0-5/">children ages 0 to 5</a>.<br />

I've used them for eight years and was blindsided by this. No warning, no grace period, nothing.<br />

It's going to take me a bit to get my photos uploaded somewhere else and fix ALL the links. Please bear with me. I'm not looking forward to this lengthy process, but I'm also not going to pay ransom money.<br />

Okay, maybe not right this very minute, but now that I'm in Colorado, I expect it to happen all the time. This is ski country, right?!<br />
<br />
For this week's extra special Winter Extravaganza Flannel Friday, I made a flannel that can accompany a song I'll be using in a program in February.<br />

Let's take a look at the fabulous Friday felt fabrications for Friday.<br />
<br />
WHAT'S THAT?! YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP! I'm having difficulty hearing you over these <b><a href="http://kdr4xmom.blogspot.com/2016/11/noisy-robots.html">NOISY ROBOTS</a> </b>made by <b>Kathryn</b> from <b>Fun with Friends at Storytime</b>!<br />
<br />
Whew, it's a little quieter now. We can hear these <b><a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/five-christmas-cookies/">Five Christmas Cookies</a></b> made by <b>Kate</b> at <b>Felt Board Magic</b> chanting their rhyme. Don't eat too many, or you'll get a tummy ache. She's even included a pattern so you can bake more this holiday season.<br />
<br />
After all those cookies, I need to brush my teeth. Never fear, because these <b><a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/five-little-teeth/">Five Little Teeth</a></b> also made by <b>Kate</b> at <b>Felt Board Magic</b> are here!<br />
<br />
If you're worried about the Christmas rush, we have an adorable fall felt board for you. <b>Mr. Keith</b> from <b>Felt-tastic Flannelboard Funtime</b> has made these cute leaves for <a href="http://felt-tasticflannelboardfuntime.blogspot.com/2016/11/autumn-leaves-are-falling-down.html">Autumn Leaves Are Falling Down</a>. And, as if you need more convincing, there's coffee involved.<br />
<br />
<b>Wendy</b> from <b>Flannel Board Fun</b> shows us just what might be hiding in those leaves: <a href="http://flannelboardfun.blogspot.com/2016/11/little-snail.html">Little Snail</a>. This Inspired By Flannel Friday idea actually uses real leaves!<br />
<br />
Our last post is from the amazing <b>Miss Mary Liberry</b> (I say this not just because we work together, although it might be super awkward if I didn't). She's made a felt version of Brian Won's<b> <a href="https://missmaryliberry.com/2016/11/04/flannel-friday-hooray-for-hat/">Hooray For Hat </a></b>with super cute animals.<b> </b><br />

Was it just me, or was this week crazy? Let's blame it on the harvest moon, shall we?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Emily from Literary Hoots is getting royally silly with her "<a href="http://www.literaryhoots.com/2016/09/flannel-friday-theres-castle-in-middle.html">There's a Castle in the Middle of the Moat</a>". Try this the next time you do a fairy tales or kingdoms storytime.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Keith from Felt-tastic Flannelboard Funtime shared his version of <a href="http://felt-tasticflannelboardfuntime.blogspot.com/2016/09/dogs-colorful-day.html">Dog's Colorful Day</a>. The pieces are so detailed! They bring a whole new life to this favorite story and Keith even added motions for more fun.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Shawn from Read, Rhyme & Sing celebrates International Dot Day with a new twist on the old classic Little Mouse: <a href="http://readrhymesing.blogspot.com/2016/09/flannel-friday-robot-robot.html">Robot, Robot</a>! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Speaking of Dot Day, Lisa M. from Libraryland turned Eric Litwin's new book, <a href="http://lisaslibraryland.blogspot.com/2016/09/flannel-friday-nuts-sing-and-dance-in.html">The Nuts: Sing and Dance in Your Polka Dot Pants</a> into a fun flannel board. I love that she didn't use felt, but foam and puffy paint, instead. Flannels can be made out of so many materials!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Wendy from Flannel Board Fun has a two-fer for us today! Her <a href="http://flannelboardfun.blogspot.com/2016/09/pot-of-songs-not-flannel-friday.html">Pot of Songs</a> is a fun way to add a little bit of flexibility to storytimes, especially when you have a wiggly crowd! She's also getting in the holiday spirit with these fun <a href="http://flannelboardfun.blogspot.com/2016/09/christmas-finger-puppet-set.html">Christmas finger puppets</a>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Jane from Piper Loves the Library shares what is probably the cutest program I have seen in a long time (at least since the stuffed animal sleepover craze). It's called <a href="http://piperlovesthelibrary.blogspot.com/2016/09/how-to-program-for-calm-confident-and.html">Talk to the Animals</a> and I guarantee it will make you squee with delight.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Fall is almost upon us, and Kate from Felt Board Magic has two apple-tastic posts to share this week. <a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/a-p-p-l-e-felt-board-set/">A-P-P-L-E</a> is a popular piggyback of B-I-N-G-O, but Kate has added her own flavor to it with an extra "crunchiness." <a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/ten-red-apples-adding-and-subtracting/">Ten Red Apples</a> is a cute song that also introduces addition and subtraction. Yummy!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">And lastly we have Kathryn from Fun with Friends at Storytime with a fun balloon song, <a href="http://kdr4xmom.blogspot.com/2016/09/pretty-balloons.html">Counting Balloons</a>, that will be perfect to use on the windy fall days that are coming soon.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Lisa from Thrive After Three is kicking summer off with a flannel version of <a href="https://thriveafterthree.com/2016/06/14/crunch-and-a-munch-flannel/">What This Story Needs is a Crunch and a Munch</a> by Emma J. Virjan. silly rhymes + picnics = a fantastic Summer.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Let's welcome long time reader, first time poster, Michelle from Friday Story Time! She has turned Jim Averbeck's <a href="https://michellestorytime.wordpress.com/2016/06/15/post/">Except If</a> into a gorgeous flannel board. Thanks for joining the posting fun, Michelle!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Summer means camping, especially to this poor woman stuck in the Arizona heat! Emily from Literary Hoots is sharing her love of getting back to nature with <a href="http://www.literaryhoots.com/2016/06/flannel-friday-camping.html">A Camping We Will Go</a>. Stay cool, Emily!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Take a break from the heat with Wendy from Flannel Board Fun and her <a href="https://flannelboardfun.blogspot.com/2016/06/gingerbread-house-set.html">gingerbread set</a>. This beautiful piece of art looks (almost) good enough to eat!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Kate from Felt Board Magic has two great ideas for us this week. First, she puts a new spin on Little Mouse with her <a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/little-worm-hide-and-seek-apple-sizes-felt-board-set/">Little Worm Hide and Seek</a>. Her set of <a href="http://www.feltboardmagic.com/five-cheeky-monkeys-swinging-in-a-tree/">Five Cheeky Monkeys Swinging in a Tree</a> (one of my favorites) is crazy cute! I am <i>almost </i>rooting for the little fellas this time.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It's not summer without a great <a href="https://literacious.com/2016/06/17/flannel-friday-fruit-salad/">fruit salad</a>! Luckily, Laura from Literacious has just the thing. She's turned the song from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AsXR76wf-I">Jbrary</a> into a flannel board and even has a template to share. Yummy yummy! (And if you get that, you are probably like me and watch WAY too much Wiggles).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Mr. Keith from Felt-tastic Flannelboard Funtime (awesome blog name, btw) has made a flannel of <a href="http://felt-tasticflannelboardfuntime.blogspot.com/2016/06/animal-colors.html">Animal Colors</a>. If you tell me you've seen cuter flannels, I just don't believe you.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Lastly we have a Flannel Friday veteran, Cate from Storytiming, with her super awesome octopus that she uses for <a href="https://storytiming.com/2016/06/17/flannel-friday-happy-cephalopod-week/">Herman the Helper</a> by Robert Kraus. Happy Cephalopod Week, everyone!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">That's all we wrote, folks. Thank you so much to our participants this week and thank you all for being a part of Flannel Friday.</span></span><br />

As some of you know, I started working in a new library near Denver, CO. It's been a big change, but I am LOVING it so far. Especially since it brings me closer to our Flannel Friday founder, Melissa from Mel's Desk, and Mary from Miss Mary Liberry!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span> <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I can't quite call this my own submission. Like all great artists, I <strike>steal</strike> borrow from those around me. In this case, everything is entirely Melissa's, I just repurposed it. I needed ideas for a dinosaur storytime, and low and behold, she had already done most of the legwork! There was even a flannel already created that I <strike>stole</strike> borrowed for this. That's right, it's literally her actual flannel that she made for her storytimes. Sharing an office wall with her is awesome.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This project is something that I made for my daughter, actually. It's not perfect, but it's been fun planning it out. She's a very active toddler, so I gave her a Christmas tree of her own to play with. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I bought a large sheet of green felt and used 3M strips to tape it on her door. I used washi tape for the outline of the tree and base (though I did have to go back and glue the washi tape down because it wasn't sticky enough to stay on the tree). The ornaments are shapes I traced from her shape sorter set and the numbers are <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">glitter glue</span>. I've been giving her one ornament a day. Though they're not pictured on the tree, the last five days will be yellow stars. And as you can see she has already lost poor day ten, a green triangle to match days eight and nine, which all together make a <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Christmas tree of their own</span></span>.</span></span></div>

really liked this Gingerbread Man song I found on
PreschoolEducation.com. It's a nice and easy rhyme, and you can change
the animals, add characters, etc. The template came from <a href="http://www.makinglearningfun.com/themepages/GingerbreadManStoryPopsiclePuppets.htm">MakingLearningFun.com</a>. I colored them in, laminated them, cut them out, and placed a magnet on the back.</span></span><br />

I'm still not sure, so let's ask Cookie Monster and Tom Hiddleston.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/webdr06/2013/9/4/10/anigif_enhanced-buzz-9859-1378306299-2.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/webdr06/2013/9/4/10/anigif_enhanced-buzz-9859-1378306299-2.gif" height="180" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Alright, there's our answer. So on with the show!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's October (finally)! You know what that means? Fall! Pumpkins! HALLOWEEN! <b>Kathryn</b> <b>at Fun with Friends at Storytime </b>helps us choose what costumes to wear with her <a href="http://kdr4xmom.blogspot.com/2015/10/five-jack-o-lanterns-shining-bright.html">Five Little Jack-o-Lanterns Shining Bright</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Shawn at Read, Rhyme, and Sing</b> was inspired to make a <a href="http://readrhymesing.blogspot.com/2015/10/flannel-friday-mr-potato-head.html">Mr. Potato Head</a> set by another Flannel Friday post. She even created a clever rhyme to help children with parts of the body.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Nikki at heytherelibrary</b> is looking for her <a href="https://heytherelibrary.wordpress.com/2015/09/21/flannel-friday/">Little Cat</a> who fell asleep under a hat. Can you guess where Little Cat is?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Laura at Library Lalaland</b> and I have something in common: our first flannel was <a href="http://lalalalibrary.blogspot.com/2015/10/flannel-friday-five-monkeys-and.html">Five Little Monkeys Swinging in a Tree</a>! And she's right, this one never fails to get the crowd going.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Time for a Flashback Friday (that's a thing, right?). The last time I hosted, <b>Melissa at Mel's Desk</b> debuted her <a href="http://melissa.depperfamily.net/blog/?p=6020">first Meeow</a> set. This week she has more pieces: <a href="http://melissa.depperfamily.net/blog/?p=6053">more Meeow</a>!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Jaime at Miss Jaime's Library Journeys</b> has been hard at work making a <a href="https://liltexaslibrary.wordpress.com/2015/10/02/flannel-friday-pete-the-cat-and-his-four-groovy-buttons/">Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons</a> set. I love the idea of using Velcro on the buttons to help them keep the shirt closed. Good thinking, Jaime!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Jane at Piper Loves the Library </b>has started a yoga storytime program called <a href="http://piperlovesthelibrary.blogspot.com/2015/10/mindfulness-in-story-time.html">Yoga for Two</a>. She's even managed to work in some flannel board fun!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lastly, <b>Nancy</b> asked if I would post pictures of her imaginative and fun <a href="http://storytimewithmissmollie.blogspot.com/2015/10/flannel-friday-guest-post-shadow.html">Shadow Children at Play</a>. They are just too cute!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: orange; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Next week is our Fall and Halloween Extravaganza! It will be hosted by Lisa at <a href="http://lisaslibraryland.blogspot.com/">Libraryland</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What a great week, everyone! I'm as sad as most people to see summer go, but I'm looking forward to cooler temperatures and falling leaves, not to mention everything pumpkin flavored. And even though summer is winding down, Flannel Friday is still in full swing. I've loved seeing the fantastic flannel posts our contributors prepared for us. Here they are for your flanneling pleasure:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Camping is a favorite summer activity and <b>Lauren</b> has made this delicious flannel to celebrate a favorite tasty treat: <a href="http://thedilleydally.blogspot.com/2015/08/flannel-friday-smores.html"><b>S'mores</b></a>! This rhyme will have you giggling and looking for some marshmallows.</span><br />
