DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Halloween 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.

If you're looking for Bookmarks with a different theme, check out our list of all the bookmarks available on the site.

Even if you have a colour printer, you may prefer the black and white version which the kids can colour in themselves...

Materials:

• paper,
• printer,
• scissors,
• glue,
• crayons or something else to color with (for b&w print version)
• Optional:
  • wool
  • clear contact paper
     

Instructions:

• 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 tassle.
   

Templates:

• 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 or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
