Beauty and the Beast: Printable Felt Board Images

Welcome to the "Beauty and the Beast Felt Board Characters" section!

Here, you'll find simple and engaging pages designed to accompany the beloved fairy tale. These versatile printables can be used as puppets or felt board characters, making storytelling interactive and fun. Choose between black and white sheets for coloring or pre-colored pages. Perfect for bringing the fairy tale to life, these characters add a visual element that enhances the learning experience for young children.

Here are some ideas for using basic felt board characters:

Use the sheets as... PUPPETS

Either print the black and white sheet to color
OR
print the color page
Cut out each image and tape it to a popsicle stick or an unsharpened pencil.

Use the sheets as... FELT BOARD CHARACTERS

Either print the black and white sheet to color
OR
print the color page
You can cover with clear contact paper or laminate if you want them to last longer.
Cut out each character.
Cut out a small piece of coarse sandpaper and tape or glue it on the back of each character (if you laminated, it will need to be a larger piece of sandpaper). The sandpaper will allow the characters to stick on your felt board.

About the Artist/Author:

Hello! I'm Leanne, the creative mind behind coloring.ws. I love nothing more than enjoying a warm cup of tea and a quiet day with a good friend. Here’s a bit more about me:

Things I Love:

Drawing: My happy place is with a pencil in hand, bringing ideas to life on paper.
Creative Writing: I love using my imagination to create delightful stories and playful rhymes for kids.
Early Childhood Education: I absolutely adore those early, eager-to-learn years with kids. Their curiosity and enthusiasm are infectious!
History: Exploring the past helps me understand the present and dream about the future.

Things I Have a Love/Hate Relationship With:

Technology: I love how it connects us and makes things easier, but why does it have to change so quickly?
Trivia Nights: I'm your go-to person for fun facts, yet somehow, I always end up in second or third place. Frustrating!
Gardening: I like to think I have a green thumb, but it has a few brown speckles. My plants and I are working on it.
Animals: I adore my pets and they bring me so much joy, but oh, the chores! Why can’t they clean up after themselves?

I earned my degree back in the early '90s, and as a lifelong learner, I continue to delve into the things I love. This includes technology (though I struggle to keep up!), art, early childhood education, history, and mythology as it relates to sociology.

I know that while the coloring pages are largely for kids, many of you visiting the site are educators and caregivers. I’ve tried to share some interesting trivia tidbits and fun facts to make your visit enjoyable too. Happy coloring!
