    Hello,

    I am looking for some ideas for a child who keeps peeling paint of the wall. Thanks.

    Have you tried wrapping toys or putting tape on the table and allow them to peel the tape off?

    Hello! Some strategies I have created in the past (in working with Toddlers) are to make an interactive wall mural; laminate it and make laminated materials that are meant to be peeled off the wall. I did the whole corner wall with the evening scene in the Big Red Barn book, where the animals are getting ready to go to bed...and then made separate animals with velcro dots to place and peel as they wished.
    Another idea is to place a felt board on a wall (or you can even cover a piece of plexiglass from the wall pockets with felt, as I did)) and give the child(ren) a basket of felt objects. Covering a bulletin board works nicely, too!
    I have also made laminated pictures of classroom "families" and put velcro dots on these for placing and peeling. Hope these ideas are helpful...they worked for my little people who like to peel things off the walls :��Have a great day! Wanda
