Double-Hinged Books

A Double Hinge book is just like a normal book, except it opens in two places. There are a lot of different shapes you can use for a double hinge book - almost anything that opens or unfolds. You can make a bat, a toy box, or even a clamshell!

The things you'll need to make a double hinge book are:

2 small pieces of construction paper or card stock

1 large piece of construction paper or card stock (this piece needs to be big enough to hold the two small pieces)

Clear tape

Writing paper

Stapler

Scissors

This pattern shows how to make a book that looks like a treasure chest!!
