I’m preparing early for Halloween this year and am making a series of monster stories. Emberley’s There Was an Old Monster is a perfect story to convert to flannel! And, you can download the free song here.
First I made the monster (seen above). Then I made each animal:
Tick (with stomach)
The rest of the animals: Ants, Lizard, Bat, Jackal, and Bear.
Lion (I love the over-sized piece!) The finished product is about 2 feet by 4 feet!
I can’t wait to use this throughout the month of October with my in-house storytimes, and outreach!
For more flannel ideas check out Storytime with the Library Lady. she’s hosting Flannel Friday this week.
Okay! When you are sleeping tonight…I am coming to get this Old Monster! I am! I’ll bring Piper, she won’t get swallowed up! This is beyond cool. You and your kids will have way too much fun with this! ~ jane
Haha. Thanks!
Oh MY Goodness!! I’m overcome with the absolute fun and cuteness here!! Your storytime kiddos are going to LOVE this!!
This is fantastically detailed! Well done.
