What you can do with a corrugated paper vase:
Morphing Paper Fish

SUBTITLES AVAILABLE
The main part of this toy is a piece of corrugated paper that can flex into different shapes. However the addition of a fin and a pair of eyes makes it into a kind of a fish! Squeeze the tail and the mouth opens, in quite a realistic way. But Tim always likes exploring new options, and the toy can be folded into a hat, rather like the traditional pith helmet that was worn in the tropics. But there's more... fold it another way, and you get a very strange hat, where the eyes give a very strange effect indeed!
This toy was bought back in 1995, and has not been available for a long time now.

The makers say that it is literally impossible to be unhappy whilst wearing one of these Happy Hats!
The clever paper design can be transformed into four different hats. Comes folded flat and when you open it out it transforms into a handy (and happy!) paper hat.
