But lets go through the folding instructions first. First fold the paper in half to make a crease. Unfold, and fold again along the other side.<\/p>\n

Flip the paper so that the white side is facing you. Fold all 4 corners towards the middle. Flip again, white side forward.<\/p>\n

Fold the 4 corners towards the middle again.<\/p>\n

Fold in half (the side with teeth will stay inside). Push your fingers into the pockets (square pockets) and push the flaps up to open up the cootie catcher.<\/p>\n

When you\u2019ve folded your fiercely adorable shark all there\u2019s left to do is to add the fins. You can also glue together the head and body so that only the shark\u2019s mouth opens.<\/p>\n
