What You Need

-------------

To make a paper popper, you only need a few things:


- A sheet of paper (any size, shape or colour will do, but I recommend using A4 or letter size)

- A pair of scissors (optional, but useful if you want to trim the paper)

- Your hands (of course!)

How to Make It

--------------

Follow these simple steps to make your own paper popper:


1. Fold the paper in half lengthwise and crease it well.

2. Unfold the paper and cut or tear along the crease to get two equal halves.

3. Take one half and fold it in half again lengthwise and crease it well.

4. Unfold the paper and fold the top left corner down to the bottom edge, forming a triangle. Crease it well.

5. Fold the bottom left corner up to the top edge, forming another triangle. Crease it well.

6. Flip the paper over and repeat steps 4 and 5 with the other corners. You should end up with a square shape with four triangular flaps on each side.

7. Fold the top flap down along the diagonal edge and tuck it under the bottom flap. Crease it well.

8. Flip the paper over and repeat step 7 with the other flap. You should end up with a diamond shape with two pockets on each side.

9. Hold the paper popper by the pockets with your thumbs inside and your fingers outside. Make sure the open end is facing away from you.

10. To make a loud pop, quickly snap your wrists inward and push your thumbs outward. The air inside the pockets will be forced out, creating a popping sound.


Congratulations! You have just made your own paper popper! You can now use it to make some noise and have some fun!


Tips and Tricks

---------------

Here are some tips and tricks to make your paper popper even better and louder:


- Experiment with different types of paper, such as newspaper, magazine, wrapping paper, etc. See how they affect the sound and durability of your popper.

- Decorate your paper popper with stickers, markers, crayons, etc. Make it colourful and unique!

- Try making different sizes and shapes of paper poppers by using different folds or cutting techniques. See how they change the sound and performance of your popper.

- Challenge your friends and family to a paper popper contest! See who can make the loudest, longest or most creative pop!

- Be careful not to hurt yourself or others with your paper popper. Do not aim it at anyone's face or ears, or at any fragile objects. Do not use it in places where loud noises are not allowed or appreciated.
