Why Felt?

Remember those flannel board stories in Sunday School? They had the right idea!

Yes, Sunday School teachers were definitely on the right track, whether they knew it or not! We now know that there are so many educational benefits to using flannel board stories, or, as we used to call them, flannelgraphs. Some of these benefits are only now becoming recognized for their importance as we learn more about how critical it is to have a multisensory approach to learning. Felt board stories are so valuable in teaching children of all learning styles and multiple intelligences.
