Cut out the square above and with the printed side down, fold each corner to the center point. Turn the folded paper and fold each corner on this side to the center point. Fold in half and crease to make a rectangle (not a triangle), then unfold. Fold in half in the opposite direction, still making a rectangle, and crease again. Next, fold each corner on this side to the center point. Place your thumbs and index fingers under flaps and into corners. Push up the center until a pyramid shape forms.

Play this game yourself or with a friend. Put the game on your hands and pick North,

South, East or West. Open and close the game alternating for each letter, for

example: N-O-R-T-H. Pick a number and alternate direction again as you

count the number. For example: 1-2-3-4. Pick a topic. “Get informed & Go outdoors!”

Creating a Culture of Safety The Winnipeg Police Service is working harder than ever to foster closer relationships with the community.

Police Officers would rather stop crime before it happens, so they spend time with kids and help them stay on the right path.

Finish the picture! Start at 1 and see what the little boy is doing. To see what the officer is doing, start at A and finish the uppercase alphabet and connect it to the lowercase alphabet.
