Five Little Rockets

In honor of the start of summer reading I thought I'd share this the themed flannel pieces I recently made to go on our mini bookshelf feltboard. 

These five little rockets were made by tracing a template and free hand cutting the colored windows. I used my new glue gun to stick the windows on. Overall it was very simple and I think they turned out pretty cute.


These rockets could go perfectly with any of the many "Five Little Rockets" rhymes out there. With smaller storytime groups they could also be given out to individual kids for a round of the Jbrary classic "Zoom, Zoom, Zoom!". I'll be leaving them out on my feltboard for the kids to explore as they wish. Within a half hour of putting them out I heard one parent and child using them to count and talk about colors!

Hopefully this will give you a bit of storytime inspiration. Wishing you all an "out of this world" summer!
