Paper banger

The video is hosted on YouTube: it only loads when you press Play.

Here is a fold that will make some noise! You may already know it and have played with it in the school playground. If you can't remember, here is how to make it: it is a very simple fold. You will need a standard A4 sheet (or A5, A3, etc.). The paper must not be too fragile, so that it does not tear. A sheet of printer paper will do and will already make quite a bang, but for maximum noise, I recommend kraft paper!!! To make it "pop", hold it as shown in the video, and bring your arm down sharply and quickly. That will keep the children busy, but it is not recommended if you want some peace and quiet…

What next?
