Assembly Instructions

Before gluing, crease the paper along mountain fold and valley fold lines and make sure rounded sections are nice and stiff.

Glue, scissors and other tools may be dangerous to young children so be sure to keep them out of the reach of young children.

Scissors, set square, glue ( such as woodwork glue), metal rod, spatula, a used pen, toothpicks, tweezers (useful for handling small parts).

Tools and Materials Assembly tip Caution

Make a mountain fold.

Mountain fold line (dotted line) Cut line (solid line)

Cut out.

Valley fold line (dotted and dash line)

Make a valley fold.

3. Use scissors to cut along the solid line.

4. The pale-colored numbers on the glue tabs indicate the number of the part to be attached there.Use a spatula for the small glue tabs.

1. Use a set square or ruler and a dried up pen to score along the dotted lines, and fold along them to make creases.

2. Work curves into the pieces using a metal rod before beginning assembly.For small pieces, add curves before cutting them out.

*Read the Assembly Instructions carefully in page order referring to the page numbers on the parts list.Assembly Instructions : Three US letter sheets

*It is easy to get pieces mixed up if you cut them all out at once, so just cut the pieces as you need them.

Bottlenose dolphins are the most well-known type of dolphins. They live in seas all over the world except those around the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. They are 2-4 meters long and weigh between 150 and 650 kilograms. Although they are rather small among marine mammals, they are outstanding jumpers with great braking force. These master swimmers can swim approximately 45 kilometers per hour in short bursts. They are friendly and curious creatures who are thought to communicate among themselves by letting out various sounds or through body expressions.

*Red numbers are numbers of each respective part. Gray numbers are numbers of parts to be attached to red parts.
