Flannel board: 5 little blueberries

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to get back to blogging, and I thought a good way to start would be by sharing this flannel board I made for an upcoming "Winter Blues" themed storytime. 

 

It was made to go with this rhyme from Canton Public Library: 

Blueberry Roll 
Five little blueberries sitting in a bowl.
One fell out and started to… ROLL!
It bounced off the table and rolled under my seat.
How many blueberries are left to eat? 

The blueberries were made by using a circle template printed from Microsoft Word. Leaves were cut out free hand. Initially they were glued on, but ended up needing reinforcement from small pieces of book tape. Yay for improvising! 

I hope this rhyme comes in handy for any upcoming color or fruit themed storytimes you may be planning.
