Total Time 30 minutes or less
Ages school-age
Can you drink from a piece of paper? Give partygoers a crash course in roughing it in the wild with this easy-to-learn survival skill. Collapsible cups are standard camping gear, but with a piece of paper and some origami know-how, young adventurers can create their own drinking vessel in a pinch. Give kids a square of paper and printouts of the directions. Be sure to have a canteen nearby for testing the finished products.

How to make it
Starting with one point at the bottom, fold the paper corner to corner to form a triangle.
With the point facing up, fold the corners in at an angle (they will overlap).
Fold the front point forward and the back one back, then pop open the cup.
