Instructions for Making a Bee Jokes Fortune Teller

Cut out the fortune teller square. Turn the square over to the non-printed side.

Fold each of the four corners to meet in the middle of the square.
Flip the fortune teller over.
Again, fold each of the four corners so that their points meet in the middle.
Flip the fortune teller again.
Fold the fortune teller in half (the numbered flaps should be on the inside).
Insert your thumbs and pointer fingers, one into each of the four folded pockets on the outside of the fortune teller. Work your fingers into the four corners and, using the creases, push the corners together to form four points in the middle of the fortune teller. Now you are ready to play.
