- 1). Place the paper right side down on the table.
- 2). Fold the paper in half diagonally. Unfold the paper. Fold the paper in half diagonally in the other direction. Unfold the paper.
- 3). Fold all four corners into the center of the paper, aligning the edges of the paper with the folds you made earlier. Crease the folds. This will form a smaller square.
- 4). Turn the paper over and repeat the previous step.
- 5). Turn the paper over again. You will see four square flaps. Turning the paper over, put your thumbs into the bottom two flaps and your next fingers into the top two flaps. Pick the paper up and press your thumbs and fingers up and together making a fold in the paper between every finger. The flaps will spread out into a pyramid shape. This shape is called a "cootie catcher" or a "fortune teller."
- 6). Pick up the puppet in one hand placing your index and middle finger into the top two sections and your thumb and third finger into the bottom two sections. You can then open and close the puppet's "mouth."
- 7). Draw a tongue inside the mouth and eyes on the top two sections. Add additional details such as a nose, lips and hair.
