A Christmas Carol: Printable Felt Board Images

Below are some neat ideas for using the characters and objects from the holiday story of A Christmas Carol to create feltboard images to play with.

Here are some ideas for using basic felt board characters:

Use the sheets as...  PUPPETS

• Either print the black and white sheet to color
  OR
• print the color page
• Cut out each image and tape it to a popsicle stick or an unsharpened pencil.

Use the sheets as...  FELT BOARD CHARACTERS

• Either print the black and white sheet to color
  OR
• print the color page
• You can cover with clear contact paper or laminate if you want them to last longer.
• Cut out each character.
• Cut out a small piece of coarse sandpaper and tape or glue it on the back of each character (if you laminated, it will need to be a larger piece of sandpaper).  The sandpaper will allow the characters to stick on your felt board.

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
• Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
