Warnings

It’s a bookmark - designed to locate your page in your favourite book! So……

Don’t chew them. Yuk!

Don’t give them to little ones under 3 - they would probably chew them or poke themselves in the eye. Neither of which are very good.

Up cycling your bookmark

So what could you do with your bookmark? Up cycling requires a little bit of imagination sometimes - here are a few of our ideas…..

Use the bookmark to store ribbon, wool or thread. We always keep ribbon, wool and twine that comes on presents, new clothes and all manor of things. To store the newly acquired ribbon; simply wind it around the bookmark. You might need a little bit of tape to hold it in place or ask an adult to cut a slit into the side (about 1cm deep) and the end of your ribbon can sit happily in there.

Use it on your next craft project.

Don’t forget, if you get fed up of your bookmark (as we all change our minds from time to time!) then donate it to a family member or friend. Don’t forget to ask an adult if it’s ok!
