Snail

[For 4-year-olds] Let’s try! Seasonal Origami (Snail)

Let me introduce a snail you often see when it rains.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper and let’s make it.

With the colored side of the snail facing inward, fold the paper into a triangle twice.

Make sharp creases.

Open it again, then fold the corners to the creases you just made to form small triangles.

Using the existing creases as guides, fold three times toward the center.

Align with the center line to form the snail’s body, flip it over, and fold the corner on the side that isn’t yet the body toward the center.

A small pocket will form—inflate it by folding to puff it up.

Fold the top corner down in half to make the tail.

Adjust the overall shape, and you’ll have a cute little snail.

Goldfish you can make in 3 minutes

Summer Origami: Easy Goldfish Origami ⭐︎ A simple origami you can fold in 3 minutes [with voice instructions]. Cute goldfish origami – how to fold a goldfish ​⁠@tentenmimi9626

When summer comes, you feel like folding a cool-looking goldfish out of origami, don’t you? This goldfish is simple and takes about three minutes to make, so please give it a try.

The folding method is very similar to the samurai helmet (kabuto).

Instead of folding the horn parts of the kabuto, imagine folding back the part that goes over the head in the opposite direction.

After that, rotate the origami 90 degrees and fold it back the other way, then cut open and spread out the tail section.

Be careful not to cut your hands when using scissors.

Finish by drawing a cute face.

If you use patterned paper with a gradient, it creates a lovely effect.
