MATERIALS:
• Felt (in an assortment of colors)
• Scissors
• Glue
DIRECTIONS:
1. You do not need a sewing machine for this project. Felt is
an extremely forgiving fabric and perfect for cutting and
gluing.
2. Free-hand sketch fruits, vegetables, meats, carbs, snacks
and condiments of your choice on different colored felt
paper, see suggestions under “Lunch box ideas”. For each,
use 1 felt square 3” across, or if you would like contrast use
2 different colored squares, and cut out your shapes with
scissors.
FUN TIP: Homemade felt food certainly requires no
embellishment. But if you feel like taking it a step further, you
might like to include fun packaging for your child’s play food!
Place your felt meals in a lunch box or a paper bag based on the
recipe cards. Super easy.
