[Origami] Simple Origami Folding Ideas to Savor Spring with 5-Year-Olds

Perfect for decoration! Tulips

[Origami] Spring Tulip (Second Version) made together with a 3-year-old child

Here’s an idea for making a tulip using two sheets of origami paper.

You’ll make the flower and the stem/leaves separately, and each part takes only five folds.

For the flower: fold the paper into a triangle twice, then unfold one fold.

With the image of crossing the left and right corners along the center line, fold them up and overlap.

Tuck the bottom corner slightly to the back to finish the flower.

For the stem and leaves: take the other sheet, fold it into a triangle once and open it.

Fold the two left edges along the crease you just made.

Fold the paper in half along the first crease, turn the narrow pointed end upward, and fold up the bottom part to complete the stem and leaves.

Glue them together and use as wall decorations, etc.
