paper toy step one The first step is to cut the image into three pieces. Following the white lines, cut across where it says 'Cut here'.

Carefully cut out the black rectangle that surrounds the arms. Once cut out, fold it in half, and glue it together so that the arms are two sided. Allow the arms to dry before cutting them out in detail.

When you cut out the feet be sure to leave some leg to glue inside the toy's body.

Cut out the body making sure to not cut off the white glue tab in the top of illustration to the left. Using scissors cut the tabs where shown. Fold the tabs and sides into a box shape, and then open it back up flat. See the little red lines in illustration to the left? Cut little slits with a craft knife, and glue the arms inside. Once arms are glued in place, add glue to the white tab, and fold into box shape. Hold glue tab until it dries lined up correctly. Fold in the small tabs on top, fold and glue the back and front tabs to complete the box shape on the top.

The last step is adding the feet. Fold leg up on each foot, and glue the leg to the inside front of toy. See completed paper toys in photo below.

Little Brother is smaller than Saboosa, but he has a big heart. Brothers in life always looking for adventure. Together, like a family should be.
