  Lay it flat so that you have a triangle shape.

  Repeat this with the left hand side.

Wow! Just made a quick one out of printer paper, but will definitely be making some nice green ones for people! They jump really well!

Wow, these are neat. I made one, but I kind of got lost at 13, through the ending. So I kind of just improvised and guessed.. It works, but it's not like it's all that great. It's kind of... lame haha (mine is, not yours!) But I was like, oh well! I love your site it's so cool!

Oh these are so cute! I've made some like this before- only mine had no eyes and weren't very good at jumping, these are much better!
