You will need:

A square sheet of •paper. Any size.

A pair of scissors.•

Pens, pencils •or crayons for decorating.

1. Take a square piece of paper and fold in half diagonally.

2. Fold back the top layer of the triangle to make a smaller triangle at the top.

3. Now take the bottom layer of the triangle and fold back a smaller triangle at the top

4. Fold the unit in half along the dotted line, then open it again so that the smooth side is facing you this time.

5. To make The feeT: Using the middle fold as a guide, very lightly mark the centre points of each half along the bottom edge. Using this as a guide, fold the tips of each bottom corner inside and upwards

6. Now take the small triangles you have just folded and make another fold along the dotted line ensuring that on each side edge A lines up with edge B.

7. To make The eaRS: Take a pair of scissors and make a cut along the dotted line on the bottom triangle. Fold the unit in half again as you did in step 4. Take the bottom triangle and refold along the dotted line, pulling the triangle upwards so that the top corner sticks up above the back edge. Repeat this on the other side and this will create the ears.

8. To make The TaIL: Fold the back corner down as in Fig.20 then fold the tip back up so it sticks up past the top edge and tuck in your fold into the middle of the unit so that the small triangle peeks out like a little tail...
