Simple Zipper Pulls
Print the Zipper Pulls Printable on a color printer and stick the page to a sheet of self-adhesive laminating paper (available at office-supply stores). Help kids cut out the shapes, put two back-to-back, and stick together with glue stick or tape.
Punch a hole where indicated and attach to your child's zipper with a paper clip, ribbon or string.
Shrink Plastic Zipper Pulls (for longer life!)
To make shrink-plastic zipper pulls, print the Zipper Pulls Printable on shrink plastic, such as Shrinky Dinks (from office-supply and craft stores). Help kids cut out the shapes and punch holes where indicated. Follow the instructions on the shrink plastic package to shrink the zipper pulls in the oven (about 5 minutes). Remove from the oven, allow to cool, and attach to your child's zipper with a paper clip, string or ribbon.
