[For Kids] Let's Fold! Today's Origami Idea Collection

20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

Origami is a fun activity you can easily buy at 100-yen shops.

When you buy a pack, it usually contains many sheets, but after you make what you want to fold, you often end up with quite a few sheets left over.

So in this article, we’re introducing today’s origami picks for kids.

Use this article as a guide and try challenging yourself with new folding methods!

Folding ideas are updated daily, so be sure to check back every day.

You’re sure to discover new folding techniques you’ve never seen before!

Fun to roll! Dandelion origami

This is a voluminous dandelion origami made by rolling strips.

The petals spread out radially, giving a glamorous look.

Fold the origami paper in half and cut it, then fold each piece in half again.

Apply glue to the edge, join to form a ring, and make fine 5 mm cuts to create the petals.

Roll another piece of paper to make the stem, and fold and snip it to finish the leaves.

Wrap the petals around the stem and fluff them out for added dimension—it also works well as interior decor.

Combining yellow and orange will make it even more vibrant.

Tulips are perfect for spring message cards and wall displays.

The method is simple, making it great for children’s fine motor practice.

Prepare two sheets of origami paper and fold them separately for the flower and the leaves.

For the flower, fold the paper in half into a triangle, then hold the left and right corners and fold them up diagonally.

Flip the paper over, fold the tip to round it off, and the flower is complete.

For the leaves, fold the paper into a triangle twice, then fold the tip toward the center.

When shaping the leaves, watch the balance and make them even.

It’s also a great idea to glue the finished leaves and flower together and add a message.

Give it a try!
