Finally, the poor lady just held them in position on the board until she could tuck them back into a safe place. The moral of this tale? Don't use flannel board out of doors in a breeze! Another pitfall some people stumble into is their positioning of the pieces on the board. I have seen a figure placed above another in such a way that I'm sure the younger children thought that one was flying and another crouching below. Imagine a horizontal line running across the board and make the figures stand on that.
Flannel graph size also has its limitations because of the size of the figure. Most available stories are designed to be used with small groups gathered around a speaker. If you have a large assembly, or a children's talk in a church service, be aware that at a distance the figure may not be distinguishable because of the flannel board size.
