Bedtime stories will become way more fun with the help of this teddy bear cootie catcher (or fortune teller, however you may call these) – such a fun origami for kids and a paper toy to play with!
You can even expand it with other forest friends or even a shark cootie catcher.

Teddy Bear Cootie Catcher
This little printable will make story time super fun and will encourage kids to read by themselves.
If you have’t yet folded a fortune teller you can find folding instructions here.
Get the Teddy Bear Cootie Catcher
Get the Whole Forest Animals Bunch
The teddy bear one is free but you can get a whole bunch of cootie catcher forest friends for your kids to play with.
So what to do with these little fellow? Well first let your kids have some fun folding it as this is one of the easiest origami for kids and a perfect introduction to the folding universe. After that they can do some imaginative play or use them as puppets when they are reading (or you are reading to them).
I think this one goes great with the Bear and Friends Books
