10 Craft Ideas to do With Bagel Coloring Pages
Once those vibrant Bagel coloring pages are complete and piling up, give them a new life with these easy and affordable craft ideas!
1. Bagel Coasters
Cut out your favorite colored bagel pages, then glue them onto sturdy cardboard circles (from old cereal boxes work great). Cover the top with clear contact paper or a layer of Mod Podge to protect them from spills. These make fun, unique coasters for your drinks!
2. Bagel Shop Menu Board
Gather several colored bagel pages, cutting out different bagel types or toppings. Glue them onto a large piece of poster board, arranging them like a menu from a bagel shop. You can even add price tags using construction paper for imaginative play.
3. Bagel & Cream Cheese Play Food
Cut out your colored bagel pages. To create “cream cheese,” glue cotton balls, white tissue paper, or a glob of white craft foam onto one side of the bagel cutout. These make adorable, calorie-free play food for a pretend kitchen or picnic!
4. “Build Your Own Bagel” Puppet Sticks
Cut out various bagel halves and an assortment of toppings (like “lox” from pink paper, “tomato” from red paper, or “scallions” from green pipe cleaners). Glue each piece onto a separate popsicle stick. Kids can then mix and match to “build” their favorite bagel sandwiches and put on a show!
5. Bagel Garland Extravaganza
Cut out multiple colored bagel pages, ensuring the hole is also cut out. Punch two small holes at the top of each bagel, then thread string or yarn through them to create a festive garland. Hang it in a kitchen, classroom, or playroom for a delightful decoration.
6. Wearable Bagel Headband
Cut out a large, beautifully colored bagel page. Attach it to a strip of construction paper or a repurposed elastic band sized to fit around a child's head. You've just made a silly and sweet bagel crown, perfect for breakfast playtime!
7. Bagel Seed Mosaic Art
Glue a colored bagel page onto a stiff piece of cardstock. Then, use craft glue to add real sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or even small beans to create a textured “seed” mosaic on your bagel. This adds a fun sensory element and makes the bagel look deliciously real!
8. Bagel “Hole-in-One” Game
Glue a large, colored bagel page onto the side of an open cardboard box. Carefully cut out the center hole of the bagel through both the paper and the box. Now, kids can practice their aiming skills by trying to toss small, soft objects (like ping pong balls or balled-up socks) through the bagel's hole!
9. Bagel Aroma Discs
Cut out a colored bagel page and glue it onto a cardboard disc. On the back of the cardboard, glue a cotton pad soaked in a few drops of vanilla or cinnamon essential oil, or even a few real cinnamon sticks. Place these fragrant bagels around the house for a subtle, sweet scent.
10. Bagel Photo Frame
Cut out a colored bagel page, then carefully cut out the center hole slightly larger than you normally would. Glue your favorite small photo behind the bagel so it peeks through the hole. It's a charming way to display a snapshot, framed by a delicious-looking bagel!
