How To Make A " Cootie Catcher"

How to make a “Cootie Catcher”

 

 

1.) Materials: Blank piece of paper, scissors, pen/pencil, and color pencils/markers

 

2.) Instructions: Take a blank piece of paper, fold the corners into make four triangles, flip over then do the same exacted thing. After that fold in half you put your fingers in the four little pockets. Pick four colors to write on the outside of the tabs. Open back up where you will see eight little triangles, write 1-8 on them. Open the little tabs and write goofy statements in each one. Color the four tabs on the outside the colors you picked. To play cootie catcher you must put four fingers in the tabs and a friend or family member picks a color. Lets say they picked PINK, so pink has four letters so this is how many times you moves the cootie catcher back and forth and side to side. On the inside of the Cootie catcher you will see four numbers, they pick a number and do it that many times. The last step is for the friend or family member to pick one more number and the one they pick, you open up and read the statement.

 

3.) Warning Hazards: Cutting yourself with scissors, paper cuts on body, extreme laughter and fun.

 

4.) This is a fun, goofy way to bond with family and friends, and stay away from the T.V, computer, game-boys, Nintendo, video games and much more all day.
