PAIR YOUR FELT TACOS WITH —> Cupcake Liner Taco Friend Card Idea For Kids To Make

FELT TACO CRAFT SUPPLIES:

All you need for this DIY tutorial is inexpensive craft felt {most importantly a nice shade of tan for the taco itself!} and scissors.

THE DIRECTIONS:

For each felt taco, I just cut out a simple circle that could be folded in half. Then the taco “toppings” were just random shapes that fit perfectly in the taco piece. Yellow for cheese, light tan for chicken, red for tomatoes, green for lettuce etc.

Then kids can pair their pieces together however they like and because it’s felt, the pieces typically stick together and it’s just like the real thing!

So easy but oh so “delicious!” Will you be making some felt pretend play tacos with your child today? I sure hope so! Be sure to also check out our Paper Plate Taco kid craft idea! Another fun activity to pair with the book “Dragons Love Tacos.” #gluedtomycrafts
