Flannel Boards – Revised
Even in the 21st century, when technology has become an integral part of some of our storytimes, flannel boards are still very popular. I find flannel boards to be a key method of engaging the toddler audience. Here are some helpful websites with flannel board ideas, and a list of picture books that work well if you want to make your own flannel figures.
