A pop-up card is a card that has a three-dimensional effect when you open it. You can make a pop-up card by using different layers of paper that are attached with spacers. When you fold the card, the layers collapse flat. When you open the card, the layers pop up and create a 3D scene. Pop-up cards are not only fun, but also helpful for improving their hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and artistic sense.
