Magnetic Bookmarks
It has been sometime that I last did crafts with my kids. I have a few crafts that I wanted they to do but just could find time.
I managed to squeeze in time to do this with my son and he said he wanted to to give this to his teachers for teachers' day.
Materials needed:
- Cardboard (size 20cm x 5cm)
- 2 magnetic strips
- Coloured Paper
- Glue (we used stick glue. It's doesn't curl paper)
- * additional tool used: craft punches
- Punch out shapes using craft punches.
- Fold cardboard into half.
- Spread glue on the folded cardboard.
- Decorate the cardboard with punched out paper.
- If your magnetic strips does not come with adhesive tape, use double-sided tape to stick the magnetic strips to both insides of the cardboard.
- Let the glue dry and you can use it now. Just 'clip' it on a page of a book. No more slipping bookmark. *wink*
- You can also find a piece of cardboard with nice picture to use as a base, eg. post cards.
- You can also draw on the cardboard instead.

That's a very sweet bookmark. We did bookmarks too, though i haven't post. We are gonna think of what to do for the teachers or otherwise will be store bought.
I like these :) I have only a day to do it with them and hopefully we can complete it in time for Teacher's Day. Thanks for sharing :)
Mummy to QiQi,
Welcome. We will do crafts when I can find the time. :p
Joanne,
Thanks. Got the idea from magnet bookmarks I bought long ago. I got lots of magnet strips so we use paper with it.
Saw the twin's Teacher's Day Sunflowers. So pretty!
LZmommy,
Glad you like them.
L & Z shouldn't have a problem completing them. They are so good in crafts.
Wow!! Love your site. I too have a little boy and will be back to investigate all the wonderful crafts. Love the box, and I am thinking of using it for the Valentine's day treats for his classmates. Won't promise to be able to get it done, but I will try. Hugs, antonella from US
