cardboard with scissors.
Step 3: Glue foam craft paper to both front and back of the 3
cardboard skis.
Step 4: Push the foam together – there will be a slight outline of 4

the ski following the indented outline. 5
Step 5: Using your fingers, bend the tips of the front and back
of the skis so that they come up just a little bit.
