On the reverse side of the bookmark, a fall wonderland awaits! They will find an array of autumn-themed images to color, adding their unique touch to the bookmark.
The illustrations include cheerful fall buntings, exciting pumpkin mazes, friendly scarecrows, and picturesque scenes of pumpkins with charming fall signs.
Autumn bookmarks to color
There are two printable bookmarks included.
They are both the same on the book review side, where the kids need to fill out the following:

On the reverse side of the bookmark there is the following:

How to use the printable fall bookmarks?
You can download the 2 free bookmarks at the bottom of the page.
I highly recommend you print these out on cardstock (this is the one we like.) But you can choose to print them on white paper or a different color of your choosing. We opted for white and yellow.
You will need to cut around the dotted line and I personally like to use a paper cutter, as it saves me time. But of course, scissors will do the job just as well!
Fold the bookmarks in half and glue them together using washable school glue.
Now the fun begins, the kids can unleash their creativity and color the bookmarks to their heart’s content.
Once they finish reading a book, it’s time to complete the book review on the bookmark. By doing so, they not only practice their artistic skills but also hone their reading comprehension and critical thinking abilities.
Each of our charming bookmarks measures 2.5 x 8.5 inches when folded in half.
It’s the ideal size to mark your place in any book and serves as a wonderful reminder of the fantastic stories you’ve explored.
