  • optional materials – felt glue, ribbon scraps, fabric paints

Directions:

  • First things first – get your thinking cap on. Imagine a pizza and all the toppings that could go on it.
  • Now take that thought bubble and cut your felt pieces to look like pizza toppings. Think pepperoni {red felt} green bell peppers {green felt} and onions {white felt} Omit things or add the unthinkable. Ask your child to brainstorm w/you on what toppings should be made.
  • To play – just lay the felt pieces on top of the canvas triangles just like you would build a pizza.
  • Repeat over and over again. You can even dig out some small plates and plastic kitchen gadgets too to make it extra fun!
  • When done playing with your felt play pizza, simply store all your felt pieces in a large plastic baggie for safe keeping.

Customize It:

  • If you want to change up your pizza pieces, grab some fabric paint and/or cardstock paper to give your felt pieces even more shine and sparkle! You could even use glitter glue or ribbon pieces to make various toppings. So many ideas – just raid your craft stash to make it happen!

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible.
