Disneyland Vintage Map Felt Board Craft
It seems like we just celebrated the 60th anniversary of Disneyland Resort just a little bit ago, but believe it or not the 60th was already 2 years ago! Each year Disneyland celebrates its birthday is another year of magic and fun to be celebrated, so I wanted to create a DIY craft perfect for Disney lovers, and as a nod to the vintage Disneyland map. I created a DIY and print out template to make your own Disneyland vintage map felt board, perfect for a gift or a baby shower or birthday, as a toy for a plane ride to Disney, or to make for your own child just for fun!
Materials Needed:
- 8×11 piece of cardboard
- 1 piece of off-white felt
- 1 piece of green felt
- 1 piece of brown felt
- 1 piece of red felt
- 1 piece of pink felt
- 1 piece of blue felt
- Black fabric marker or permanent marker
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Print out template, which you can find here.
Directions:
- Print out the map shapes template. Cut out each of the pieces.
- Glue an off-white piece of felt onto your cardboard.
- On the off-white felt, use a black permanent marker or fabric marker to write the word “Disneyland” at the top, then draw a rounded-edge upside down triangle on your felt.
- Write the words Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Main Street, Adventureland, and Frontierland in the corresponding spots on your map.
- Use your paper shapes to trace onto your pieces of brightly colored felt. (Green for Adventureland, brown for Frontierland, red for Main Street, pink for Fantasyland, and blue for Tomorrowland).
- One traced, cut out your felt pieces.
- Your board is now complete! Have fun playing with your little Disney fan in training to help them match the pieces to where they belong on the map!
