DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Insect Bookmarks
Print these "home-made" bookmarks for a special reading
companion.
To add that extra bit of motivation, print out a bookmark for your child,
your friend or yourself as a reward for reading a certain number of stories.
Even if you have a colour printer, you may prefer the black and white
version which the kids can colour in themselves...
MATERIALS
 | Click on the link of your choice (below) to print the template. Color as
appropriate.
|
 | Cut the bookmark out (one big rectangle) and fold in half (left to right) along the
center line.
|
 | Glue so it stays folded together.
|
 | OPTIONAL: cover with clear contact paper so it lasts longer (you could also put a
piece of cardboard in the center before gluing for a sturdier bookmark)
|
 | OPTIONAL: Poke a hole in the top of the bookmark and tie a string/wool through as
a tassel.
|
 | Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
|
 | Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE,
PAGE SETUP in most browsers). -- this template shouldn't be an issue as it's a bit
smaller than some in the past. |
