The colored dots are to help you see where the paper is supposed to be folded.
Match each blue dot with it's pair
Match each red dot with it's pair.



1. Take a square sheet of paper (6 in. X 6 in. is a good size) and place the colored side face down; unless both sides are the same color, then it doesn't matter. Valley fold the paper in half, diagonally.

2. Fold the two corners along the diagonal crease that you made in step 1.

3. Valley fold the bottom corner up along the edge of the 2 folds from step 2.

4. Valley fold down again about half way.

5. Valley fold left and right corners in right along the edges of the fold from step 4.

6. Turn the paper over. Valley fold back to make the tail

7. About half way back, pinch (mountain fold) 2 diagonals that meet at the center.

8. Valley fold the top point back right at the end points of the diagonals from step 7.

9. Using the folds from step 7, push the center of the top edge down and inside the model, forcing the ears to move upward, while mountain folding the whole rabbit in half.

10. Cut the ears so they will be separated. Then by going inside the back of each ear, open it up and flaten it as this picture shows.
