* Child colors the template if applicable
*  Cut excess paper around the template and then cover in clear Contact paper then cut pieces for a puzzle that can be used many times.
* You can also glue small pieces of sand paper to the back to use on a felt board.
* Or recycled magnets and attach to the back and child can use on an old cookie sheet or refrigerator door.

Method 2:  
* Child colors the template
* Cut pieces, assemble and glue the pieces  onto a piece of paper or card stock.  
* Once dry, cut around the image,  make a hole on the top and insert a pretty ribbon or yarn.
