This post was inspired by Kathryn at Fun With Friends at Storytime!
Kathryn not only made these amazing felt turtles, but she also wrote a rhyme to go with them. Rather than re-print her work, visit her Google Doc to see the rhyme.
To make Kathryn’s turtles, I printed off a picture to get the idea of how the shell and turtle would work. I played around with colors and wound up choosing a gold piece of felt as the shell even though Kathryn’s turtles have an olive green shell and a tan belly. (My turtles are lacking their bellies!)
I will be using these at a family storytime this spring — frogs and turtles!

Your turtles are adorable! Turtles are frogs are a really fun storytime theme!
The kids LOVED your rhyme. They had so much fun with Turtle Fun!
They’re beautiful. I am so happy for Spring and Spring stories.
Me too! It’s about time after the winter that we had!
