How to Create a Simple Pop-Up Book

Construct a pop-up page by folding it in half on the fold line.

Cut the dashed lines to make the tabs. Fold the tabs down.

Then unfold the pop-up page and push the tabs forward.

Repeat this process for each page in the pop-up book

Decorate the illustrations or shapes and cut them out. Glue the decorations or shapes on the pop-up tabs.

Fold a piece of construction paper in half the hamburger way. This will be the cover for your pop-up book.

Stack all the folded pages in the pop-up book on top of one another. You will glue or tape the backside of the bottom of each page to the backside of the top of the next page.

Once all the pages are put together, wrap the cover sheet around all of the others and create a front and back cover with a binding. (do not make any cuts in the cover sheet)
