About Bat Bookmarks

Perfect for Halloween (and beyond!): Whether you’re handing them out to trick-or-treaters, preparing classroom treats, or making gifts for book-loving friends, these bookmarks would be fun for kids and adults alike.

No prep required: Simply print the pages and hand them out. Kids can cut and fold them following the easy instructions, turning it into a fun activity. Or assemble them yourself in about 3 minutes each for ready-to-give gifts.

Based on real bats: Each design features an actual bat species—the Indian Flying Fox, Egyptian Fruit Bat, and Honduran White Bat—complete with species labels for a touch of education alongside the fun.

Full-colour and colour-your-own versions: In addition to full-colour versions, you’ll also receive colour-your-own designs for additional customization possibilities.
