How to Play Find a friend or family member and ask them to pick a color. Moving the flaps in and out and side to side in time with the letters, spell out the color they have chosen. Open the fortune teller to reveal the numbers and ask them to pick one. Count out the number they have chosen by moving the flaps in and out and side to side. Ask them to pick another number and count it out in the same manner. This time ask them to pick a third number and reveal the self-care activity you have written on the inside flap under that number. Do the self-care activity under the inside flap of the number selected!

Flatten out your fortune teller. When flat, the fortune-teller should be square. On one side of the square, you will see four smaller squares. On this side, you are going to put colors. You can either color the whole square, a part of the square, or write the name of the color. It’s up to you.

Flip the fortune-teller over to the side with the triangles. On this side, there are 8 small triangles (within four larger triangles). Within the small triangles, write the numbers 1-8.

Finally, flip over the four larger triangles. In each of the smaller triangles, write one self-care activity. You will write down 8 total activities. Pick an example from the image above - or you can make up your own!
