Garlands

We made some beautiful paper garlands today. Here’s how we did it…

First we laid out lots of strips of paper and glued them into two long strips.

Then we stuck the ends together and started folding. Each strip takes it in turns to fold across the other.

Folding, folding and more folding!

Folding, folding and more folding!

Sometimes you have to untangle the strips of paper because they are so long!

Finally you get all the folds done and you end up with a little block of paper.

Then you glue the ends and let it go!

Wow!
