1. Fold a square piece of paper so that the opposite corners meet, forming a triangle.

2. Repeat the same for the other two corners.

3. Once you open it, you will be left with two intersecting lines on the paper.

4. Cut halfway along the four crease lines.

5. Fold the alternative corners towards the centre as shown in the picture.

You can decorate your pinwheel using buttons, paint or glitter, and suspend them on sticks or thread several of them together to make pinwheel streamers.
