Welcome to another fabulous fine motor skills idea! This one is kind of a classic and there are many ideas out there.
This simple weaving felt page makes up page 3 of our new fine motor and life skills felt quiet book.
To simply make this weaving felt, select a few colors you would like. We used a brown backing here and random scraps of felt. I cut 5 strips roughly 1 inch wide for the length and another 5 1 inch thick to the width.
Then I had fun with the glue gun and stuck the tops down.
We were left with a great page for our new felt quiet book and my 5 year old got to practicing right away.
This is a great activity for fine motor skills as well as co-ordination.
You can find page 1 here and page 2 here.

This is a great idea, and I look forward to trying it. I do want to tell you though, that in your blog post you have “ruffly” which should be roughly. Such an error detracts from your great idea.
