Today I would like to share about my second most essential homeschool item: the magnetic book mark. I have owned and lost so many book marks over the years that I have lost count of them. I have been using these for the last couple of years and I am impressed with their performance and price. They are a great investment in any home that has books.
Details:
Each clip measures 57 mm from tip to tip when open, 18 mm wide and 28 mm from edge to tip when closed.
Because they are magnetic they do not fall out of the book.
Meaning you can use either side to mark the exact spot on the page you stopped reading.
They are 2 mm thick when closed and do not damage the book you are reading.
They are available as
- Butterflies
- Emoticons
- Celtic
- Cupcakes
- Owls
- Punctuation
- Music
- Calligraphy
- Pawprints
- Live, Love, Laugh, Learn
- Snowflakes
- Seashells
- Floral Silho
- Designer Shoes
They are fairly popular and sell out fast but be persistent till you get the ones you want. I buy mine from Book Depository. They come in a pack of eight and Sir N loves choosing the one we use for each new read aloud.
Blessings
