[Age 3] Simple summer origami ideas. A roundup of classic summer motifs.

A goldfish you can make by folding six times

Origami easy goldfish folding method/how to make

This goldfish is one of the easiest origami goldfish to make.

Most goldfish origami usually starts by folding into a triangle, but this one is a bit unconventional because it begins with a square fold.

First, fold the paper in half to make a rectangle, then fold it diagonally along the diagonal.

After that, fold down the white section—this will become the tail fin.

Then make a small fold for the head, and it’s already done.

It’s an avant-garde style of origami, almost like a painting by Matisse or Picasso.

Puffy, three-dimensional goldfish

[Origami Goldfish] Easy with one sheet of origami♪ How to make a balloon goldfish 💙 step-by-step explanation – Summer origami – How to make very simple tulip origami

Let’s make a fun twist on the classic origami balloon! Here’s a puffy, three-dimensional goldfish idea.

All you need is one sheet of origami paper in your favorite color, a black pen, and a white pen.

It’s a unique, playful idea that makes the goldfish look adorably puffed up! Fold a balloon-like goldfish from a single sheet of paper, then use the black and white pens to draw the eyes and patterns.

It will look as if the goldfish has leapt right out of an aquarium.

This idea is sure to make anyone go “Whoa!” the moment they see the finished goldfish!

Goldfish origami folding method how to make

This goldfish is relatively easy to fold compared to other goldfish origami.

Because the shape is quite simple, drawing the eyes and scales might make it look more realistic.

To fold it, first make two diagonal folds along the corners.

Then fold the tip slightly, and fold it in half in the perpendicular direction to make a crease there.

Fold the triangular section at the bottom upward.

Finally, fold up the opposite edge from the head to form the tail along that line, and you’re done.

Plump goldfish

You can enjoy goldfish scooping too! Let’s make plump little goldfish! First, start by folding using the origami balloon method, and complete the front side just like the balloon.

Once that’s done, turn it over and fold the left and right corners down to meet the center line.

Fold up the lower-left corner, apply glue over one side, then fold it in half and stick it together.

Attach round stickers for the eyes.

There’s an air hole on the tail side, so use a straw to blow air into it and inflate.

And there you have it—a plump and cute goldfish! Put some lily-of-the-valley tape (suzuran tape) in a basin to look like water and enjoy playing goldfish scooping!

Let’s make an angelfish with a cute, colorful triangular shape! First, fold the origami paper into a triangle twice to make creases, then open it once.

Fold the left corner up along the center line, flip it over, and fold the opposite corner up along the center line as well.

The inside of the lower edge of the triangle will open, so open it and gently squash-fold.

Fold the top and bottom flaps so they overlap in the middle, flip it over, and you’re done! Feel free to draw the eyes and scales.

If you hang it with fishing line, it will look like it’s swimming around your room—super cute!

You can fold it with just one sheet of origami! Here’s how to make a “Sakabambaspis.” First, prepare a square sheet of origami paper.

Fold it diagonally to make a crease.

Next, fold each side toward the center.

Fold the bottom corner toward the center, then align the top and bottom edges.

Flip it over and fold the top and bottom inward.

Fold each corner toward the center to give it a three-dimensional shape.

Finally, adjust all the corners and you’re done! Decorate it cutely with round stickers, crayons, or colored pencils.

A fish you can make by folding five times

[Origami for Summer Festivals] Easy-to-Fold Fish

Let me show you a very simple way to fold a fish.

First, fold it into a triangle and open it to make a crease.

Fold the left corner slightly inward, then fold it back into a triangle.

Fold the top corner of the triangle down to the bottom edge, and then make a valley fold on the right corner—and you’re done! Feel free to draw the face, fins, and scales as you like.

Even if the folding angles aren’t exact, it won’t affect the finished fish; in fact, you’ll end up with a charming, unique fish.

It sounds like a great way to fully enjoy the fun of origami!
