Flannel boards! Question for teachers!?

Question

Why are flannel boards good to use and how are they educational for children ( how does it help them learn)? Please explain in detail

Answer 1

Some people think that Flannel board stories are a wonderful way for children to learn words, songs, rhymes, and hear stories....that's what some people think.  Personally, I have never used it.

Answer 2

Felt Activities provide a delightfully entertaining educational tool - kids have so much fun using these educational manipulatives, they don't even know they're learning!

Felt products promote creative play and exploration (good for Kids), and they are completely washable and durable (good for Mom).

Many of our felt activities are offered with an optional accompanying cd of stories, rhymes, and songs for a true multi-sensory learning experience.
