[Nursery/Kindergarten] 5 Easy Spring Origami 🌷 [March / Hinamatsuri Crafts & Wall Decorations]

Here are five spring-themed origami designs.

First is the Hina dolls for Hinamatsuri, a festival kids love.

Then there’s a bush warbler, a strawberry, a tulip, and a butterfly.

They range from easy to a bit challenging, so choose according to the child’s age.

Among them, the Hina dolls look quite fancy but are surprisingly simple: just fold toward the center three times and draw the faces with a pen.

If you prepare patterned chiyogami that matches the dolls’ outfits, even young children can give it a try.
