How to make it

about 30 minutesmedium160 gsm paper

  1. Colour in the front of the card (the bottom half) and the two curtains.
  2. Cut out the card and the curtains along the dashed lines.
  3. On each curtain, fold over the narrow strip along the dotted line.
  4. Spread glue on the grey strips to the left and right of the window. Stick the strip of each curtain onto them so the curtains meet in the middle.
  5. Fold the card in half along the long dotted line, with the picture on the outside, and fill in the back.
  6. Whoever opens the curtains sees the question!

Print on thick paper (160 gsm) if you have it; ordinary paper works too.
