17) Turn your frog over so that the other side is facing you and it looks like this.

18) Now fold what are going to be the frog's back legs, down along dotted red line.

19) You have now completed your frog and it should look like the picture below.

20) To make your frog jump, lay it on a flat surface like a table, and push down near the end of it, where the red X is in the diagram below. You must make sure that the legs of your frog are folded underneath before you push otherwise it will just sit there.
