Corn, known as a summer vegetable, is also popular as a snack for children.

Here’s an idea for making corn using a single sheet of origami paper.

Fold the paper into a triangle, open it once, then fold the bottom edge and the left edge to meet the crease.

Rotate the paper so the pointed end faces down.

Fold both corners of the folded section outward, then fold them inward again along the lines you just made.

Flip the paper over and fold the left and right sides toward the center, then slightly fold the top and bottom corners inward to finish.

Perfect fan for summer

Origami Summer Easy! How to fold a paper fan / Origami easy! Origami fan for kids for summer

An uchiwa is a tool for sending a breeze to beat the summer heat.

Have the children used one before? Here, we’re introducing an idea for making an uchiwa using a single sheet of origami.

Choose your origami while thinking about what color you want your uchiwa to be.

First, fold the origami into a triangle and open it, then fold two adjacent edges to meet along the crease.

Open the folded corners to the left and right, and tuck those corners to the back.

The colored part will be the fan area you wave, and the white part will be the handle.

There are a few finer folds until it takes the shape of an uchiwa, but take your time and fold each step carefully.
