Velcro Block Patterns with Free Printables

Velcro blocks One of the most frustrating things for kids is when things won’t stay put! Adding velcro to these inexpensive foam blocks helps them stay put without breaking your bank.

Gather your materials. You will need some velcro dots, a hot glue gun, and some cheap foam blocks. I got mine at the dollar store!

Add one hook and one loop dot on two opposite sides of each block with the hot glue. Let dry a few minutes.

While they are drying print and cut out the pattern cards. Laminate if you wish. Click on the images to print.

    I would like to know which dollar store; Family Dollar, Dollar General The Dollar Tree or another. I looked at all three for your project with shave cream but I had to purchase a set for $15 at Walmart and they weren’t as small.

    What a great idea will look for those blocks again for this to do with my children. When I had them sometime back (getting from the Dollar Tree)I used them for my children to learn and identify on how to spell their name.

    […] had nog houten knutselblokjes in huis liggen die ik ooit gekocht heb om velcro blokken voor onderweg mee te maken. Alleen is het er nooit van gekomen en bleven de blokken liggen. Tot ik het idee kreeg […]
