An Eric Carle children's book, A House for Hermit Crab, is the inspiration for this collection I designed for my great-grandson.

 

 

Each creature in the story is represented in the pattern, plus a seahorse for fun. 

 

 

With placemats and a picnic blanket, my great-grandson can retell the story using the images on the pattern.  With bathroom mats and towels, he's good to go for a seashore adventure.

I included a copy of the book and a nonfiction book about Hermit Crabs. A perfect gift for a young one to share with his mom, dad, and new baby sister. 

Don't you think?

 I'm working on matching coordinates to add to the collection.
