Directions:

1. Cut out each of the 5 sunshield pieces, following the black outline.

2. Cut out all the center circles with scissors.

3. Cut out the tabs, and fold along the two dotted lines to make a little "hinge":

4. Starting with Sunshield 1 and 2, and keeping the grey colored side facing up, dot glue onto the outside of one of the tabs. Quickly adhere to each sunshield.

5. Adhere one tab on each of the 6 corners of the sunshield.

6. Repeat gluing tabs until all 5 sunshields are together.
