My wonderful family knows never to throw any unique thing away until they've checked with me about using it for Kindergarten. This got me into using cookie sheets and magnets to create story props for retelling popular stories. I used Pete the Cat books as inspiration for these 2 boards because of the predictable text and rhythm of the stories. I used construction paper to create the characters and taped them with clear tape over the cookie sheets so they had a laminated type feel and protection. I hot glued the changing prop, in this case buttons and shoes, to magnets for easy manipulation. These are sturdy and easy to repair.
