BOOKMARK FOR GRANDMA

Choose a great book for your grandma to present with this crafted bookmark and I'm sure it will melt hearts! 

Mother's Day Bookmark

MATERIALS NEEDED

  • Printer
  • Paper (I prefer construction paper or cardstock)
  • Scissors
  • A hole punch (or have an adult snip carefully with scissors)
  • Something to colour with (crayons, markers, paints, etc.)
  • Wool or ribbon
  • To make the craft last longer, you can cover with contact paper or laminate it. 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Print out the template of choice. 
  • Colour and cut out the template.  Younger kids may need help with this.
  • Fold template in half along the center line and glue to make the bookmark.
  • Cover with contact paper or laminate (optional).
  • Punch a hole at the bottom of the bookmark and thread wool or ribbon through to make the kitty's tail.
  • Feel free to decorate further with sparkles, sparkle glue, sequins or anything else the kids can think of.  Just don't make it too lumpy or it will tend to fall out of the book.

 

  • Close the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
    • Sometimes it may say "No pages available to print". 
    • This happens with some browsers and means that you've printed or print previewed once already. 
    • If you get this message, click RELOAD or REFRESH on your browser and try printing again.
    • Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP in most browsers). 
  • Click here for instructions if you have trouble printing.  Close help window when done reading directions.
