Cootie Catcher
Cootie Catcher is a fortune-telling game made from paper in tetrahedron folds that Prunella received from her sister Rubella for her 9 1/2 birthday. The exterior diamonds come in four colored-dots: red, yellow, green, and blue. The interior triangles are numbers 1-8. The objective was for the player to pick a color, and pick two numbers, and a Prunella would reveal a fortune such as "yes", "it is certain", etc. Rubella suggests that whoever doesn't listen to the cootie catcher would be cursed, much to the annoyance of the third graders. Muffy then makes her own cootie catcher that is purple with feathers and strings, and that dust would gush out once opened. Prunella became embarrassed when Muffy made her own version. When Prunella accidentally left her cootie catcher in one of the pockets of the clothes she previously wore, the colors bled and it was ruined. Arthur and his friends decided the cootie catcher was ruining their lives, and so Prunella finally discarded it. Prunella's cootie catcher first appeared in Misfortune Teller.
Cootie Catcher can also be found on the cartoon's official website and can be either customized or random and can be printed out, cut, and folded in the following directions. Characters in the green are Muffy, Binky, and Pal; characters in the blue are Arthur, Fern, and D.W.; characters in the red are the Brain, Emily, and Tommy and Timmy Tibble; and characters in the yellow are Prunella, Buster, and Francine.
