This doll has an owie--with a doll-sized bandaid on it.
I can't wait to watch Jay, Kay and Ellie with these {little} bandaids and the rest of the play Doctor kit that I've been working on for Christmas.
I made people sized and doll/stuffed animal-sized bandages. Everyone has the chance to be healed.
To make {this little project}
I used a white cotton/lycra fabric so there is plenty of stretch in the bandaids.
It makes them more of a one size fits all.
I sewed velcro to the ends and used a brown fabric marker for the middle. I started with red velcro but it looked too much like an owie and I switched to white.
Really, these aren't anything special and I wondered if the kids would even know what they were. But somehow Ellie got a peek when I was making them and asked if they were bandaids.
So I guess they look close enough, lol.
I think I might make some colored ones too--you know, like the princess and ballerina and star wars ones we have up in the closet!
The rolled bandages are from the bottom of a white T-shirt. I just cut off about 3 inches from the bottom of the shirt, chopped it into a couple of strips, and sewed some velcro to the ends. The kids will come up with a fun way to use them, I'm sure.
And the bonus is the chance we will have to talk about the Great Healer that we celebrate at this special time of year.
