Putting sticks into bags, and out, and in again...
Introduction
This busybag combines two activities at one time: recognising colors and sticking one thing into another. This is why it does not fulfill the criterias to be called montessori material. The bags and sticks are light and fit into every handbag. If there is enough space, the sticks can also be used for "painting" or laying small pictures and the bags can also be filled with other things.
Things needed
- Felt
- small or big craft sticks
- Sewing thread in matching colors
- Needle and scissors
Steps
Cut a longish oval out of felt in every color, then cut it into half.
Bind the halves into small bags using the blanket stitch.
Put the small bags and sticks together in a bag - done!
