Rainbow Unicorn Bookmark Craft
Here is a fantastic Unicorn bookmark craft idea for you to try with the kids. We are huge fans of Unicorn themed crafts and this super easy Unicorn pointer bookmark is a fun activity and boredom buster that you can make on a rainy day.
Unicorns are so magical and we love colourful Unicorns so chose to give our bookmarks rainbow coloured hair. You can choose whichever colours you to make your Unicorn bookmarks and hopefully they will help encourage a love of reading and literacy.
Enjoy.

Step 1:
Select a cardstock paper for the unicorn side layout pattern and different colored craft papers for the other patterns from the template. Trace the template patterns on the selected papers and cut them out using scissors.
Step 2:
Grab the hair cutouts. The 2 small hair patterns will be placed on the top side of the unicorn head and the 3 longer hair patterns will be placed on the back side of the unicorn head.
Step 3:
Stick the 2 small patterns (the front hair pattern) together and then stick the 3 longer hair patterns (the back hair pattern) together.
Step 4:
Grab the unicorn side layout (the base) and stick the horn cutout on the horn layout of the base pattern. Stick the small triangular cutout on the middle of the ear layout of the base pattern.
Step 5:
The base pattern includes layouts for the hair patterns. Stick the prepared hair patterns on their places. The small hair pattern will go on the front side and the longer hair pattern will go on the back side.
Step 6:
Use a black sharpie or black gel pen to draw the face details of the unicorn. Draw the eyes, the nose and a smiley face.
Step 7:
Though this step is optional, but you can add more details to the pointer bookmark. Add craft glitter to ten horn pattern and add a small pink round shape the cheek.
You can also add tiny star cutouts and add them to the air.
