Simple crafts teach planning: what to cut first, what to fold, what to glue last. Zine Templates is a 14-page printable pack for teens ages 12 to 17.

What is inside

The pack has 11 mini zines. Page titles include “One-sheet mini zine”. Pages are in English, with a clean layout that works for school and home.

Covers and headers are in full color, but every activity area is black line art on white, so the pages print cleanly in grayscale and do not waste ink.

Skills it builds

Working through the pages practices writing, folding and design. Each page takes about a few minutes a day, which suits the attention span of teens ages 12 to 17.

How to use it

  • Save the finished crafts for a weekend puppet show or display.
  • Color before cutting; it is much easier.
  • Follow the legend: dashed lines are for cutting, solid lines for folding.
  • Teens get the most out of planners when they fill them in at the same time each day.

Ideas beyond the page

Use the crafts as party favors or classroom decorations. Let your child invent a new design on the back of a template.

Who it is for

Teens prefer a clean, minimal look, so the pages skip cartoon art and focus on clear structure. At 14 pages, this is a short mini pack, good for a week of practice or a single weekend. Parents can use it for homeschool or after-school practice, and teachers can print it for one classroom.

Printing tips

The file is an A4 PDF. Choose “Fit to page” and print one-sided; black-and-white is fine for the activity pages. Use thicker paper (120 gsm or cartolina) for anything that will be cut, folded or displayed. At a computer shop, bring the PDF on your phone or a USB drive. You can print the whole pack or only the pages you need, as many times as you like for your own children or your own classroom.
