Origami for children

Origami Animals

 

I have been busy trying to learn more about Origami. Animal faces are great for children to do, they are simple and don't need any fancy folds.

 

for more photos and ideas check out the Children's Origami Page on our blog

Spring Flowers

Simple and Easy

 

 



 

Spring .I have checked should have started in late March.

I'm still thinking its a bit late this year as yesterday we had snow!

Stuck inside trying to stay warm I'm back on my blog.

Now the flowers above are just simple cut and stick activities for primary children. There's more photos and ideas in our Nature Arts and Craft Page .

Origami Love Hearts

Origami for Young Children

I found this origami love heart at Christmas. I had been looking for some easy decorations to make , this one was easy and looked great when finished .We used scraps of paper, card ,wrapping paper and glitter and by Christmas eve my doors were covered in hearts. I have put photos of how to make it on my Children's origami page, but to be honest it could be made by primary or nursery children it is that easy.
