Penguin parent and child

[Origami Penguin] Super Easy! How to Fold Cute Parent and Baby Penguins

Here’s how to fold cute parent-and-child penguins.

First, turn the origami paper to the back and fold it into a triangle twice to make creases.

Fold one corner to align with the center line, open it, then fold along the creases two more times to set the folds.

Fold the corner up twice.

Next, fold both corners at the folded section toward the center line.

Fold the tip up to the front crease, then flip it over.

After flipping, fold the outer corners diagonally upward toward the center line.

Then, fold both corners outward so they stick out, like in the image of hands.

Finally, adjust the corners to shape them into penguins, and you’re done! If you make them with small origami paper as well, you’ll have a parent and child penguin set.

Decorate the eyes with round stickers or a pen.

Here’s how to make a penguin bookmark that makes reading even more fun.

Get one sheet of origami paper and some colored pens, and let’s get started.

As you make the creases, you’ll form the part that slips onto the page.

When shaping the beak and wings, firmly crease the folds so the bookmark keeps a stable shape.

Color the beak and draw the face with your pens, and you’re done.

It could also make a cute little gift!

Easy penguin

Here’s a cute penguin with a simple folding method that’s recommended even for three-year-olds.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper, fold it into a triangle, and make a crease.

Flip it over front and back as you go, folding the corners so they meet at the center crease.

After folding the left and right sides toward the center, fold the wing sections into triangles and puff them out a bit to add dimension.

Fold the beak so that both sides are even, then round off the corners overall with small folds to finish.

It’s also fun to try making them with different colors of origami paper.

Penguin from Sumikko Gurashi

Re: [Sumikko Gurashi Penguin Origami] Slow Version

Here’s how to fold a loose and cute Sumikko Gurashi-style penguin.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper, some colored pens, and scissors.

Start by folding the origami paper into a square.

Open it once, then fold the left and right sides toward the center crease.

After making firm creases, hold the center down and fold both sides into triangles, puffing them up slightly as you go.

The key is to keep both sides symmetrical.

Make small cuts on the two layers at one tip on one side, then fold them inward.

Shape the figure, folding while letting the corners peek out a bit, and you’re done.

Use felt-tip pens to draw the face and other details—have fun creating your penguin!

penguin ornament

Let me introduce a cute penguin ornament that looks adorable wherever you place it.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper, a felt-tip pen, and glue, and let’s get started.

We’ll fold it using the basic crane method, but for the parts where you puff up the paper, it’s best to go slowly and provide support while folding.

Open up the origami, and while puffing it along the crease lines, tuck it in to form the penguin’s body.

Folding this section evenly will make the ornament stable when displayed.

Finish by making the wings, beak, and feet.

Even just lining them up and looking at them makes for charming penguin ornaments.

Perfect for summer! A penguin folded with two sheets

[Summer Origami] Easy and Cute Penguin Folding / Animal Origami Origami Penguin

Here’s a penguin you can make from two sheets of origami paper, featuring an adorable plump shape.

Prepare one large sheet, one smaller sheet, scissors, and glue.

First, use the smaller sheet to make the penguin’s face.

After creasing along the diagonal, fold the left and right sides in along the vertical line.

Open it up once, then fold the corners along the crease lines.

When the overall shape is folded, round the corners to finish.

Use colored pens to draw the facial expression.

For the body, fold the large sheet into a triangle, then fold the base of the body along the center crease.

When making the wings, snip slits with scissors and fold along the crease lines.

The key is to leave a wide area for the belly.

Finally, glue the face and body together to complete your penguin.

Dancing Penguin

Origami toy “Pyoko-Pyoko Penguin”

Here is how to fold a dancing penguin origami that lets you enjoy a variety of movements.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper and some colored pens, and let’s get started.

First, make creases as you fold.

Fold the full open corners.

Using the head area as the center, shape the whole model into a box-like form, aligning it with the creases you made at the beginning.

By carefully making inside and outside reverse folds, you’ll end up with a sturdy final model.

The feet also act like springs, so fold them firmly.

Once it’s finished, draw the penguin’s face and try playing with it together with the kids.
