They were very simple to make, but I can't remember the exact steps. Anyone else familiar with these--and know of any site that shows how to fold them? --mike stanalger Special user St. Louis, MO 966 Posts Posted: Feb 15, 2009 10:55pm          Did you google "paper popper"? http://www.metacafe.com/watch/589756/how_to_make_a_paper_popper_loud/ pradell Special user Alaska 537 Posts Posted: Apr 12, 2009 10:34pm          Yes but that is just a single pop popper! If you fold it over once more you can create a double pop!!!
