So, I totally forgot to blog about this yesterday, and then when I saw Amy tonight, and I was completely reminded of it. I can't ignore it... I must do it. I must blog.
Here is my story.
Yesterday, I went to church. I was scheduled to teach the 4s and 5s during the first service. I began looking at the curriculum to see what I would be teaching on. Then, I talk to Jen and she explains how I may have missed part of the materials. What you would ask? The felt board.
Yep, that's right.
We are now a felt board church!
Over the years, I have heard many many people make fun of felt boards and how we used to use them as kids. I remember them my childhood church memories. I never liked them because Jesus always looked like Joseph who looked like David who looked like Elijah. Moses and Noah usually had grey hair which made them stand apart.
Yet, here I am. I'm admist these sweet little children full of creativity and life, and I have a felt board.
Did they like it? Did I make it work? Of course. They each wanted to put the pictures on the felt board. We passed the pictures around before they made it to their destiny on the felt board. Sisters actually ripped David's head off because they both thought I told them that they could put it up.
So, you may ask yourself, what do you have against felt boards? Is there something bad about being a felt board church?
And, I'd have to say, everything and yes.
Really... I just think it's freakin' hilarious. I would have never ever ever thought that Amy would purchase a curriculum that had a felt board. :)

Hahaha. Only the cool kids use felt boards.
I totally remember my felt board days. Hillarious.
was it my kids????
oh know that would have been sunday - not mine.
I've always thought it was the teacher that that made the class and lesson exciting and engaging...not the curriculum.
I taught that class a few weeks ago with the felt board curriculum and the kids absolutley loved it, they couldn't get enough of it! What was the difference between my class and your class...oh yeah the TEACHER!
Not only that, but not one felt figure was injured in the process. Maybe I should have some classroom mangagement training for those teachders who can't control the kids in their class!
And don't worry it wasn't a Hoover girl...there is no question in my mind about that!
