Hexaflexagons are a simple but interesting mathematical toy that can easily be made by children in a short time.
The MathsCraft website is here: MathsCraft NZ
When folded and glued, they can be folded and flexed to hide one side and reveal another. Trihexaflexagons have one hidden side (this template colours then red, blue, and with the MathsCraft logo); hexahexaflexagons have six (Logo, red, blue, white, white, white)
