How to make Free Fish Bookmarks to Color
My kids love to color. They use all kinds of things when they color - colored pencils, markers, gel pens and crayons. The great thing about these printable free bookmarks is that your child can use a variety of materials to color them.
So whatever art supplies you have on hand or whatever ones your child prefers will work here. I even think these would be pretty if painted with a thin paintbrush and water color paints.
However you decide to color these DIY bookmarks, my one recommendation is to use bold colors as it really helps the bookmark to stand out and pop.
You can get your bookmarks below. Then simply print them out and cut them so they are ready to color.
By the way, I have been mentioning kids coloring these bookmarks but they are in no way limited to kids. I know many adults find coloring to be calming and these would be wonderful for adults to color as well.
If you are looking to create a sturdier bookmark, you can have them laminated when they are done being decorated.

It’s so funny - I was just telling my husband that we don’t have any bookmarks in the house! I love this for my daughter (and myself actually) - they turn out so pretty! Esp with the bright colors. Good idea with laminating!
