HOW TO USE
THE FORTUNE TELLER
After folding the paper,
you can decorate the outside squares with numbers, then the
inside flaps with words or colors. Open the innermost flaps
and write the fortunes on each flap. You can make answers
to questions or be creative with fun and humorous answers.
Ask someone a question
and tell them that the Fortune Teller will have the answer.
It's easier if they ask a yes or no question. Have them pick
a number and open and close the Fortune Teller counting that
number out. Then have them pick a word on the inside of the
Fortune Teller such as a color or object. Spell it out while
you open it back and forth, then lift the flap under the
word they pick and tell them the answer.
