Fish you can make in 2 minutes

[Origami] An easy origami fish you can make in 2 minutes / How to make an easy origami “fish” (in 2 minutes!)

Here’s a cute fish origami that’s great for three-year-olds.

First, prepare a square sheet of origami paper.

Fold it in half along the diagonal to make a triangle.

Fold the top corner toward the center.

Fold that top part inward once more to neaten the shape.

Rotate the paper 90 degrees to the side, then fold the left and right corners back to create the tail fin.

Finally, press the whole piece to set the shape—and it’s done! It’s fun to use colorful paper and make a whole fish wall display.

Be sure to try it together with the children.

Goldfish you can make in 3 minutes

Summer Origami: Easy Goldfish Origami ⭐︎ A simple origami you can fold in 3 minutes [with voice instructions]. Cute goldfish origami – how to fold a goldfish ​⁠@tentenmimi9626

When summer comes, you feel like folding a cool-looking goldfish out of origami, don’t you? This goldfish is simple and takes about three minutes to make, so please give it a try.

The folding method is very similar to the samurai helmet (kabuto).

Instead of folding the horn parts of the kabuto, imagine folding back the part that goes over the head in the opposite direction.

After that, rotate the origami 90 degrees and fold it back the other way, then cut open and spread out the tail section.

Be careful not to cut your hands when using scissors.

Finish by drawing a cute face.

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!

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.

[Origami] Ice Pop

Let’s make cute popsicles out of origami! You can use a single sheet of origami paper or layer papers of different colors—adjust it to the age and preferences of the maker.

After folding the popsicle shape, it’s also fun to add toppings with stickers and other decorations.

Using origami with fruit prints, polka dots, or stripes will make your popsicles look adorable and delicious.

Make lots of different popsicles to trade with friends or play pretend shop and have fun!
