These cute felt Popsicles are a great tool for teaching your toddler their colors. They also work well for pretend play!

Supplies:

felt (various colors)
coordinating embroidery floss
sewing needle
pins
tape
large wood craft sticks
scissors
hot glue gun
template

Steps:

Draw a template onto thin cardboard. Cut out the template and stick them to the felt using rolled pieces of tape.

A rounded brown felt shape on top of a red felt piece.

Cut out two (2) main pieces, two (2) top pieces, and 1 small square.

Pin the top pieces into place on one of the main pieces. Sew in place using embroidery floss (3 strands) and a backstitch.

Pinning the pieces of felt to each other.

Pin the 2 main pieces together. Leave enough room to insert the Popsicle stick into the bottom of the Popsicles. Sew the main pieces together using embroidery floss and a backstitch.

The outer felt pieces are pinned together.

Stitch up the backs of the Popsicle, using a running stitch, on either side of the stick. This will help keep the stick from moving around too much.

Use hot glue to attach the small square to one end of the popsicle stick.

A popsicle stick with a piece of colored felt at the bottom.

Insert the stick into the Popsicle of the matching color. Optional: You can write the color names on the other side of the sticks for older kids.
