Making your own bookmarks at the end of the school year a great way to motivate your little ones to do lots of summer reading! It’s also a great craft activity or a smart way to recycle artwork! Watch this short video and learn how you can make your very own bookmarks too!
To get started, gather these supplies:
Artwork (create your own or recycle old artwork. We used white paint on pink poster paper in the video)
Scissors
Buttons
Hot Glue Gun and Hot Glue Sticks
Step 1
Create your artwork. Use construction paper or poster paper and paint or color on a design!
Step 2
Once your artwork is complete (and dry if you painted!) cut it into strips about 2 inches wide and 5 inches long.
Step 3
Glue buttons on the top of the bookmark with your hot glue gun.
Great job! You are all set! Make as many bookmarks as you wish and happy reading adventures!
