Who needs a magic 8 ball? These clever little origami will keep 'tweeners amused for hours!
1) Cut a square of plain paper
2) Fold in the corners
3)Turn the folded side away from you and fold the corners in again.
4) Fold in half.
5) Get your index fingers and thumbs up under the outer folds and bring to meet in the middle.
6)Mark the outer corners with numbers, the inner corners with colours and inside each fold a result of the question, ie Yes, No, Maybe etc... (we ues perhaps, absolutely! you never know! etc)
7) Ask the paper teller a question, for example Will we have rain tomorrow? The questioner picks a number and the informer opens and shuts opposite corners of the teller that number of times, then the questioner picks a colour from inside and the informer spells that while opening the opposite corners... then finally the informer picks again from the colours and under the colour will be their answer!!
