A Paper Windmill

• Take a square piece of paper and fold it along both its diagonals.
• Make creases along both the diagonals.

• Open it and draw a small circle at the point of intersection of the diagonals.

• Make cuts along the creases, ensuring you stop before reaching the circle.

• Fold four alternate corners towards the centre of the paper. As you do this,
hold each folded section in place at the centre with your thumb.

• Place a sticker at the centre of the windmill to hold the four blades in position.
• Take a thumb pin and push it through the centre of the sticker and out through
the back of the windmill.

• Fix it on a stick firmly so that it allows the windmill to turn.
