How to fold winter-in-season white leeks

Essential white leeks for warm winter hot pots! You can easily make them with green origami.

First, cut a sheet of green origami lengthwise into a long, thin quarter.

With the colored side facing up, fold about one third of it.

Flip it over, fold it in half vertically, then open it, and fold both sides in toward the crease you just made.

Next, make a slit in the center of the green section, then fold it in half vertically again.

Fold one layer of the green part with the slit diagonally—and you’re done! You might also enjoy making other ingredients out of origami and using them for pretend hot pot play.

Easy! Long-tailed Tit Origami

Adorably round! The long-tailed tit known as the Shima-enaga, a wild bird native to Hokkaido.

In recent years, we often see goods and items featuring its cute appearance as a motif.

Here’s an idea to make a Shima-enaga using a single sheet of origami paper, plus a pen and glue.

Once you’ve folded the creases, the base is done.

Making the wings and tail seems like something you could enjoy while teaching and learning together with friends or teachers! It could be fun to give it a smiling expression, too.

If you display the finished pieces lined up on a branch, like real Shima-enaga keeping warm together, both kids and adults are sure to feel soothed.

In conclusion

December, as Christmas approaches, is an especially enchanting time for origami.

How about enjoying seasonally themed origami—like Santa, presents, and snow bunnies—together with young children? If you start with simple folds that little hands can manage, you’ll naturally nurture the unique creativity that origami inspires, along with creating wonderful memories.
