Mother's Day Bookmarks

First grade fanatics shares a bookmark template for kids to design and make their own Mother's Day bookmarks.  Using ink pads kids stamp their fingerprints along the outline of a flower creating petals and a thicker stem and leaves.  The template is created for 2012 so it can be either cut off or adjusted in a photo editor.

Good for ages 3 and up.
