Spring time bookmarks

I was inspired by my soon to be 2 year old daughter, to create these fun spring time bookmarks I've noticed lately she has been sneaking our bookmarks out of our books when we leave them on our nightstand. My husband has even started hiding his books just to avoid losing his spot. How wonderful...

Well I figured hey why not create some fun, cute, little bookmarks for my daughter. (Maybe then she will leave our bookmarks alone. (I guess we will see)

Anyway here you go, here's a fun, simple craft you can enjoy doing with your little one.

Materials need:

1. Craft paper

2. scissors

3. glue

4. cut out shapes of your choice

5. crayons/markers-which ever you prefer

6. & of course a little helper :)

I started off by cutting strips for the bookmark (I made each one long enough to fit in a book without falling out).
Once you have done that, start on creating the shapes for your bookmark

I made a bunny, a little chick, and a flower (with the help of my daughter) All I did for these three was made the shapes of each on paper, cut them out, and then glued them onto to the bookmark (It's really that simple)

I hope you and your little ones enjoy! Until next time, happy Friday!!!!
