- This is a cootie catcher (fortune teller) template, designed to be printed, cut, and folded.
- The numbered flaps (1-8) are on the outer corners; these are the ones you manipulate with your fingers.
- The "Text Here" sections are on the inner flaps, which become visible when you open the cootie catcher after choosing a number or color.
- The colored hearts (orange, green, yellow, blue) are in the four corner squares. These typically correspond to the initial choices a player makes (e.g., “Pick a color”).
- To use it: Fold along the lines, tuck the corners inward, and fold the whole thing in half so the numbered flaps are on the outside.
- When playing, a player picks a color or number, you move the cootie catcher that many times, then they pick another number from the revealed options, and finally, you lift the flap to reveal the “fortune” or message written under “Text Here”.
