To make a Chinese fortune teller, also known as a paper fortune teller or origami cootie catcher, follow these steps:
- Take a square piece of paper and fold it in half diagonally to form a triangle.
- Fold the triangle in half again to create a smaller triangle.
- Open the paper and fold each corner to the center point.
- Flip the paper over and fold the new corners to the center point.
- Fold the paper in half horizontally and vertically.
- Write fortunes or predictions on the inside flaps.
- Use your fingers to open and close the fortune teller while asking a question to reveal your fortune.
