The first two lines of the poem read, "I planted a whistle and grew a flute." The poem continues on in that manner. There are 22 pieces in the set and they are as follows: whistle, flute, shoelace, boot, button, blouse, whisker, mouse, tire, truck, feather, duck, ribbon, hat, claw, cat, collar, coat, anchor, boat, sheet, and ghost.
All the patterns came from Microsoft Office Clipart except for the claw and sheet which I free handed. The details are puff paint.

I have been trying to figure out how to include more poetry in my story times, and I love your flannel version of this poem!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Calliope. I try to include poetry when I can. This poem works because it's interactive. Start with all the pieces in the board & recite the poem. Then hand out the pieces & let the kids put them back on as you call their piece. As a finale, recite the poem one last time. Same goes for my "Goodnight Mummy" set.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flannel pieces ~ as usual! I really admire your puff paint abilities. I am trying it more and more but I struggle to make my pieces look good with it. :-{
ReplyDeleteGreat flannel and poem for this summer. Thanks for sharing!
Have a wonderful weekend with your family!

Thanks, Kay! Sometimes the puff paint is hit or miss, but I like it best for outlines & details
