The zigzag-cracked eggshell is so fun! Let me show you an Easter egg idea you can make with origami.

All you need are origami paper in your favorite colors and some pens or colored pencils.

When an eggshell cracks, the edge turns zigzag, right? This is a fun idea that expresses that feature with origami.

The steps are simple and easy to follow.

When you do the accordion folds, press firmly with your fingers to make crisp creases! Once your egg is finished, feel free to draw any expression you like on it!

Easter Bunny

The rounded shape is so cute! Let me introduce an idea for making an Easter bunny out of origami.

What you need are origami paper, white round stickers, pens or colored pencils, and decorations like ribbons.

The adorable Easter bunny can be made with just one sheet of origami paper, which is great! The key points are the egg-like round body and the perky ears, so make sure to crease firmly as you fold.

Once it’s finished, stick on the little white round-sticker hands and draw the face!

tomato

Let’s make vegetables with origami! Here’s a tomato idea for you.

What you’ll need: a piece of red origami paper cut to 7.5 cm and some crayons or colored pencils.

By simply folding in the corners of the red paper, you’ll have a vibrant tomato! Add color for the stem with crayons or colored pencils, and draw a face to create your very own original tomato.

It’s fun to focus and use your hands while expressing the tomato’s round shape and juiciness! Try making it while paying attention to the colors and shapes.

Let’s flap the wings and play! Here’s an idea for a butterfly you can move.

A butterfly’s wings are very flexible—they spread beautifully when it flies and seem to ride the wind in an elegant dance.

This time, let’s make a light and graceful butterfly out of origami.

All you need is a single sheet of origami paper.

Since there aren’t many steps, it’s an easy project for kids to try! Choosing origami paper with your favorite colors or patterns is fun, and decorating the finished butterfly with pens or stickers sounds great, too!

Speaking of spring, cherry-blossom viewing comes to mind.

Here’s a perfect spring craft: how to make three-color dango with origami.

You’ll need three colors of origami paper for the dango and some bamboo skewers.

First, fold a balloon using the basic balloon base in origami.

Once you’ve made all three colors, simply skewer them one by one to finish.

You can enjoy the origami process itself, and then use what you’ve made for pretend play.

Taking a spring walk with the dango you made together with the kids could be fun, too.
