Winter Flip-Up Book

Create a fun flip-up book to keep Flippers the Penguin warm this winter!
  • Step 1Print out the template provided onto cover paper. This will provide a great surface for decorating.
  • Step 2Decorate your template. We have used pencils but you could use markers or paint as well. Allow to dry if needed.
  • Step 3Use scissors to cut out all the pieces of the template along the solid lines. Adult supervision is recommended when using scissors.
  • Step 4Take piece A and valley fold along the dotted lines. Leave it folded in half.
  • Step 5Lay piece B horizontal and decorated side down on the table and place piece A on top so that piece B is positioned approximately 2.5cm above the bottom of the rounded tab. Fold in the tabs sticking out either side and attach to the top flap of piece A using double sided tape. You will now be able to hold the edges and pull the tab to slide the paper up and down.
  • Step 6Use double sided tape to attach piece C over the top of where the tabs are now stuck. Align the top of piece C with the 1st fold of piece A.
  • Step 7Place a strip of double sided tape on piece A above piece C, in the gap between the next fold. Align piece D so it sits over the top of piece C and the top aligns with the next fold in piece A. Stick down in place.
  • Step 8Use the same process to attach piece E in place, followed by piece F above that.
  • Step 9Your flip-up book is now ready! Hold the book at the edge and pull the tab down to help Flippers the Penguin get dressed in his winter woolies!
