Gifts made by kids are among our most treasured. We know how much love and care go into the gifts kids create for family and friends. In this activity, kids make a pretty bookmark with a snowflake design that will make everyone want to reach for a book to display their gift!

Kids often make cards and gifts at home or at school to celebrate special holidays or events. When you see a child or a group of children earnestly cutting out colored paper, spreading gobs of glue, and sprinkling generous amounts of glitter, you can be sure there is something special being made.

 Visit our Christmas board on Pinterest.

 

Materials:

• glitter foam sheets
• narrow ribbon
• mini tassels
• snowflake stickers

The glitter sheets add to the 'snowy' effect of the design!

 

Instructions:

1. Trace around a bookmark you already have on hand.

2. Cut out the bookmark. 

3. Cut a piece of narrow ribbon. Make a hole at the top of the bookmark with a hole punch.

4. Loop the ribbon through and secure as shown in the right photo.

5. Add snowflake stickers.

 

Adding a ribbon or tassel is optional. The bookmarks look pretty with or without the trim.
