With older children, buttons can be glued with glue, but when working with little ones, it is better to glue double-sided tape to the buttons. If there are a lot of them and there is no way to stick tape onto each one, you can glue plasticine onto the cardboard, and then press the buttons onto it. It is better to use glossy cardboard, because... stains from plasticine may appear on the matte finish.
