We made these folded paper dolls today with two of the older elementary students this afternoon after writing letters to the new president. They made fat dolls, thin dolls and even a row of smiley faces.
To make: 
Fold paper like a fan (or an accordion) then draw the shape of a doll on the top layer. The trick is to make the drawing touch both edges and not to cut vertically on the fold. If you only want a pair of dolls like the ones to the right, fold a scrap of paper in half and make sure that the drawing only touches one side.

Fun! I Bet you could do the same thing with fabric & applique' it! Love it!
Yes that sounds fun.
I have been thinking of all kinds of things to do with these. I'm picturing a long row of different shaped bodies done in a nice dark paper on my bedroom wall.
