With Christmas approaching I decided to share this awesome sensory activity. I made eloise last year for so that she wouldn't play with my actual Christmas tree. While pulling out my decorations this week I came across these felt wall activity's and put them up right away. Since putting them up eloise has been playing with the tree one for hours. I also put one up at my boyfriends house his daughter is in love with the snow man and plays for hours with it. This activity is for kids any age I made it when eloise was 1 years old and now at 2 1/2 she still loves it. Brayden and Evelyn who are 5/6 love these wall activity's. Very simple and easy to make the kids will love playing with these. Felt wall activity's make great kid friendly Christmas decorations.
