Shhhh!

The ever-inspiring Theresa at LaPaz Farm posted pictures of these great felt play mats she made for her grandsons.

My kids love the toob animals, so I just had to attempt this project! I made this felt version of an African Savannah:


And rather than craft a box to keep it in myself, I bought an unfinished box, paints, brushes, stencils, and animal embellishments so that the kids can have fun decorating the box themselves.


I bought two new toobs of animals to go with the set, a play set and craft kit in one!
And the best part is I actually finished and wrapped it before Christmas Eve. I am shocked.

Thanks Theresa for the inspiration!

That turned out great! I love your trees! I may have to make some like that to add to the sets I made. Super idea to let the kids decorate it themselves.
