Cover the cardboard with white glue and smooth it out with your finger. Attach the light blue felt to the cardboard and trim any excess.

From the white and the green felt cut each sheet in half. From one half of each color cut your “land” (grass for warm months and snow for cold months). Do not glue the land to the board.

Cut a tree from brown felt. A simple trunk with several branches works perfectly. Glue only the branches to the board, leaving the trunk of the tree loose so you can lift it to change the land when changing the seasons.

Use various different colors to cut seasonal shapes from felt. Here are my suggestions:

White – snow for branches, clouds, snowflakes, flowers

Gray – raindrops

Light green – early spring buds, flower stems and leaves

Dark green – summer tree leaf sections

Fall colors (green, red, orange, tan, brown, gold, yellow) – fall leaves

Green – spring tree leaf sections

Red – apples, flowers, fall leaves

Pastels (pink, yellow, light blue) – spring flowers, apple blossoms

Turquoise Blue – summer flowers

Purple – summer flowers

Store pieces in separate zipper sandwich bags by season. To attach, simply place felt pieces on to the board and they will stay in place. Keep the board flat on the table as pieces can fall off.
