Wel­come to Flan­nel Fri­day! There are twenty fab­u­lous entries so far this week! Feel free to leave your link in the com­ments or tweet with the hash­tag, #FlannelFriday.

Ani­mals, Birds & Insects

Pippa’s Pen­guins make two appear­ances this week. Danielle at A Bad Case of Books shares the clas­sic ver­sion and Sarah at Read It Again! adds some cloth­ing. If you’ve ever won­dered if a pen­guin would look adorable in a yel­low bathing suit, the answer is a def­i­nite yes!

Over at Story Time with the Library Lady, find pic­ture instruc­tions and an audiofile for the Scot­tish song, Three Craws.

Madi­gan Reads has a beau­ti­ful felt­board dragon.

Mel’s Desk is think­ing spring with Gar­den Bugs to go with Lenny in the Gar­den, includ­ing a pattern.

Erin at Falling Flan­nel­boards brings us a fun draw­ing story, Mys­tery Mar­su­pial.

Wisely play­ing mix and match with her exist­ing pieces, Recipe for Read­ing gives us Five Lit­tle Mon­keys Jump­ing on the Bed.

Not sure what ani­mal you want for sto­ry­time? Miss Mary Liberry brings us the Mixed Up Chameleon.

Tracey at 1234More Sto­ry­times shares Who’s Hid­ing in the Woods? filled with delight­ful wood­land crea­tures as well as a game from her bag of flan­nel animals.

I made a Ground­hog Pup­pet.

Win­ter

Meghan at Busy Craft­ing Mommy is has 3 flan­nel­boards to keep warm with: Quilts Galore, Mit­ten Match­ing Game, and The Jacket I Wear in the Snow by Shirley Neitzel. The sweater is mighty impressive!

Linda at Notes from the Sto­ry­time Room has another ver­sion of The Mit­ten. I think every librar­ian needs a ver­sion of this story so there can never be too many ver­sions to look at and be inspired by for mak­ing your own.

Lissa at Tickle the Clouds (love the blog name!) is think­ing snow despite 70 degree weather with Ten Lit­tle Mit­tens.

Food

What is Brid­get Read­ing made me hun­gry with Five Lit­tle Straw­ber­ries.

There are two posts up at Sto­ry­time ABC’s this week. Kay Leigh cre­ates her own mag­i­cal Rain­bow Stew. I can prac­ti­cally hear the oohs and aahs from the sto­ry­time crowd!

She also has a guest post from “Teacher Rich” for Five Red Apples. Our first entry from the Phillipines!

Mis­cel­la­neous:

Trans­porta­tion, Doc­tor Bag, Dust Bun­nies, Calde­cotts, Chi­nese Lanterns, Bold Ladies

Inspired by some pre­vi­ous posts, Mol­lie from What Hap­pens in Sto­ry­time shares  two activ­i­ties for a Things that Go theme: the Where Does This Go? game and Going for a Ride in My Train.

Sto­ry­time Katie made a gor­geous felt doc­tor bag filled with med­ical instru­ments – check out the stethoscope!

You may have noticed the fab­u­lous Jan Thomas Dust Bun­nies Miss Alli­son is Blog­ging made ear­lier. This week she has shared How to Make a Rhyming Dust Bunny instruc­tions!

Anne at So Tomor­row enters Calde­cott con­tention with her pic­ture book adap­ta­tion of Melissa’s This is Big, Big, Big!

Wel­come Susanne at Fussy Hen at the Library back to the blog­ging world (after a 5 year hia­tus). She’s shar­ing her first Flan­nel Fri­day entry, Five Chi­nese Lanterns!

And, last, but not least, Sto­ry­tim­ing Cate has flan­nel­ized There Was a Bold Lady Who Wanted a Star (an out of print book, always a good choice for flannelizing).

You can also find past and future roundups at So Tomor­row. For a visual round-up of all post­ings, check out Flan­nel Fri­day on Pin­ter­est. Join the Face­book group for a range of sto­ry­time and blog­ging dis­cus­sions. You can learn more about Kay Leigh’s com­ment chal­lenge and give­away there as well.
