  • Step 1Place the square coloured side down and on an angle so it’s a diamond shape. Fold the bottom point to the top to create a triangle and then unfold.
  • Step 2Fold into a triangle again, this time from left to right and then unfold.
  • Step 3Fold the bottom tip up approximately 2cm.
  • Step 4Fold the outside points in towards the middle, creasing so the point is resting slightly above the horizontal middle line and approximately 1cm from the vertical middle line.
  • Step 5Flip the shape over so the coloured side is now facing up and the large point of the shape is at the bottom.
  • Step 6Fold the top of the shape down and crease approximately 1cm above the middle fold.
  • Use a small amount of blu-tack to hold the face and nose down if needed.
  • Step 8Use a permanent marker to draw in the lions face.
  • Step 9Your lovely lion is now complete! ROOOOOAAAARRRRRRR!!!!
