Hopscotch Play Mat DIY by A Girl and a Glue Gun

March 30, 2013 by Linda Lanese

Felt Activity Matbacksidebags felt

kimbo hosts “A girl and A glue gun” and has this fun “Felt Activity Mat” and the kids can help make this wonderful projects.  Kimbo always wanted to make something big with her hot glue and she came up with this brilliant idea. It was spring break! She thought she would send the kids outside and get some peace and some cleaning done. It snowed and it was cold and windy.  Kimbo says Idaho really sucks sometimes.  Thinking on her feet she came up with some outside games that could be played indoors like “hopscotch”. She did not stop there!  On the backside she made a tic-tac-toe and other games, bean bags and a bag to hold everything.  She has a marvelous pictorial tutorial for each item she made. What a clever girl you are, the one with the hot glue gun and I want to thank you for sharing.  Like “A girl and A glue gun” an watch out for her next glue gun adventure  🙂
