In reply to ShelliB. So glad you like it! My boys LOVED it for a long time... they've since moved on to Lego. But my youngest is approaching a little more structured play with cars and I can't wait to get these out again. I hope you love them!

In reply to Cassie. I would actually suggest placing two of the cars you intend to use with the set on the felt side by side and using that to get your width. That way, you'll know it'll fit your set. If I had to approximate, I'd say 3.5 to four inches wide, depending on the cars you use. I would base your length measurements on whether you use sheets of felt or a large single piece and do whatever fits best on the material you're working with.

Could you give an approximation of size for those of us who are wanton to try to make our own? Inches wide? Lengthen estimate?

In reply to cindy g.. Cindy,

Sounds like a good idea to me. The only thing I'd hesitate on is that the thread might get pulled on and stretch your felt. That's the only possible problem I might foresee. I've made several of these and it's really not so bad if the lines aren't straight. My kids don't even notice and I've never had anyone complain about it before. Good luck!

I’ve seen those you print out but by the time I laminate them they are going to slide all over the classroom floor. I like this idea because it will ‘stick’ to the carpet and is easy to store. What do you think about running a yellow thread down the middle of each piece. I’m not to steady with the paint so the lines might be crooked. Then each piece would have lines on both sides if you needed them to.
