For Heavy Reading -- A Bookworm
Happy Easter.
This is just for fun and little creativity. Do you read sitting at a desk or table? Tired of holding pages down? Make a bookworm to do the work for you.
A scrap of denim or other sturdy fabric about 13 inches by 4 inches is all you need. Fold in half inside out, and stitch one end and the long side. Turn right side out. Fill with BBs. Leave about two inches unfilled so it remains flexible. Turn under the ends and sew up the last end. Lay the bookworm across your books and papers so you can read hands free while eating your cereal.
A plastic jar of BBs sells for about 7.99 in Meijer, and made three bookworms today. Give a couple away as gifts.
I just made one for my husband this afternoon so he would stop borrowing mine! I ended up with two extras, so we can have one in each room where we read.
Enjoy getting back in the class routine for the week ahead.
