St Patrick’s Day Bookmarks to Color (Free Printables)
St Patrickโs Day bookmarks are an easy way to make reading feel a bit more special in March.
My son always loved small, hands-on extras like this, especially when they tied into a story we were already reading.
These printable bookmarks give kids something creative to do while also encouraging them to pick up a book, whether youโre using them in the classroom, during homeschool reading time, or just for fun at home.

St Patrickโs Day Printable Bookmarks to Color
This set comes with six different designs, with three bookmarks on each page. Theyโre all black and white, so kids can color them however they like using crayons, markers, or pencils.
They work well at home or in the classroom and make a nice little add-on for independent reading time without feeling like extra work.
Printing on cardstock helps them last longer in backpacks and library books. Each bookmark is 2.5 x 8.5 inches and easy to cut out with scissors or a paper trimmer.

If you want them to hold up for weeks, laminating after coloring is worth it.
The printable is waiting at the bottom of this post when youโre ready to grab it.

St Patrickโs Day Books to Pair with the Bookmarks
If your kids are already coloring, a themed story is an easy way to extend the activity.
- How to Catch a Leprechaun? – Always a hit. The silly traps make kids laugh and usually inspire their own designs afterward.
- How to Trap a Leprechaun? – Similar idea, but great for kids who enjoy planning and problem-solving.
- Patrick, Patron St of Ireland – A calmer pick that explains who St Patrick was and why the day matters.
- St Patrick’s Day Mad Libs – Not a story, but perfect for reluctant readers who prefer word games.
