Here's a magnetic marker that will be sure to stick on the last page you visited.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Colored paper or card stock
Scissors Glue Magnetic strips | |
| Seasons: Year round | |
| Materials: card stock, scissors | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Cut 2 rectangles (14 by 3 1/2 inches and 11 by 3 inches)
out of contrasting shades of colored paper or card stock.
|
| 2. | Glue the smaller atop the larger to create a place for your child to keep a running list of the books he reads. Glue matching magnetic strips (sold at most office supply stores) to the ends, as shown. |
| 3. | Fold the marker in half and decorate the front flap. (The football design shown is cut from brown paper and detailed with black marker. The laces are a couple of short lengths cut from the perforated edge of a sheet of spiral-notebook paper.) To use the marker, simply fold it over the page you wish to flag; the magnets will hold it in place. |
