How to fold a paper cracker
This guide shows how to fold a simple cracker out of a paper sheet in six simple steps. To get most “bang for the bucks”, use a thin paper sheet, such as from a news paper.
To be honest, I actually created this article most because I wanted to draw the folding pictures. 
Folding steps
Step 1
Place the paper sheet in front of you, with one long side towards yourself. It doesn’t matter which side is up.
Step 2
Fold it at the middle, so that the two long sides come together. Then fold it back.
Again, fold it at the middle, but this time so that the two short sides come together. Then fold it back.
Check
Please note that the paper now should look like this.
Step 3
Now, take each corner and fold it towards the middle of the page. Make sure that the side on the short side of the paper is aligned to the middle fold that is parallel to the long sides.
Step 4
Now, again fold it a the middle so that the former long sides come together, but this time, keep it folded.
Step 5
Take the two sharp edges and fold them to where the third edge would have been, if the paper had been square.
Step 6
Finally, fold the paper in middle at the seam between the two “wings”, where it is already folded.
How to use
Now, the paper cracker is finished!
Grab the two “wings” (the red dots on the images below) and hold the cracker in front of you.
Raise your hand and then pull it down fast. The cracker will expand, and sound “bang”. Simply put the expanded part back again to do it again.
That wasn’t too hard, was it?

justin - April 13th, 2007 at 02:32step 1:fold in half long way
step2:fold in half short way
step3:lift up 2 center pieces
step5:pull down
That was okay but not very loud.
Rachel - April 29th, 2007 at 02:34Wow I remeber these from being a little girl. Infact I once entered a competition with a famous crisp company. The winning entry won a chopper bike. I received confirmation that I’d won and was convinced a chopper would be on its way to me. I got a runner up price which was a cracker snap. I’m sure I had fun with it, after I got over the disappointment of not getting the chopper. I’ve never eaten the said crisps since.

Ryzeger - January 6th, 2008 at 03:41………I can’t do it!!!! help!
Steve - February 15th, 2008 at 16:22Ummmmm….
ME - June 24th, 2008 at 18:44I can’t do it, I think the paper needs to be a square, because when it’s a square it works!
And, like Ryzeger said, it’s better with an A1 paper, which is a square
i dont get 6
