Best Paper To Use For These Printable Bookmarks
You could absolutely use standard printer paper. Often times, I personally do this when I am creating them for my own children! However, you could also choose a sturdier cardstock. This will ensure a sturdier booker that won’t break apart easily.
Remember, crayons, markers, and colored pencils all are awesome for decorating your bookmarks.
These coloring pages are great for a rainy day activity you want to keep your kiddos entertained as they are stuck indoors.

Can I Turn This Into A School Gift?
Absolutely! This print is a really fun gift idea for your child to take to school to gift their classmates. A non-food gift idea that is great for Valentine’s Day, Christmas, a birthday party gift, etc.
