Characters/Animals (31–40)
An easy way to fold a pudding
A Jigglypuff who sings a mysterious song that makes everyone fall asleep! Prepare pink origami paper, and first fold it in half both ways to make a cross-shaped crease.
Fold both sides toward the center, then from the opposite direction also fold both ends toward the center.
Fold all four corners into triangles toward the center, then open up the triangles you just folded and the sections folded before that.
Using the many creases you’ve made, shape it into something like two boats.
Hold it so the pointed ends are at the top and bottom; open the top to make the ears, and tuck the bottom in small to make the feet.
Turn it over, and fold down the area between the ears.
Finally, draw the face, and your cute, round-looking Jigglypuff is complete.
How to fold Piplup
Piplup, the Water-type starter from the fourth-generation Diamond and Pearl series.
You can make it easily with a single sheet of blue origami! With the colored side facing in, fold into a triangle twice, then open it once.
Fold both ends up toward the crease you made.
Flip it over, fold the top layer of the origami down in half, open it, and make a crease.
Fold it down again so it goes just a little past that crease, then fold it up slightly to align with the first crease line you made.
Fold the corners at the top, bottom, left, and right of the face, and draw Piplup’s face with a pen to finish!
Unicorn Carousel
The idea of a carousel expressed with origami is characterized by a composition that combines unicorns and support pillars.
By adjusting their arrangement and height, the overall impression changes, making it fun to create while considering the balance of the whole piece.
The look also varies with color combinations and the way the legs are extended, allowing you to tune it to feel either elegant or lively.
As you gaze at the finished work, conversations like “I’d love to ride a carousel like this” naturally unfold, sparking the imagination.
It’s an idea that lets you enjoy not only the folding itself but also the process of combining elements into a single finished piece.
How to fold a unicorn finger puppet
The unicorn finger puppets made with origami paper, a pen, scissors, and glue combine the processes of folding, cutting, pasting, and drawing.
Since they’re finished in a shape that fits on your finger, their biggest appeal is that you can play with them right away after completion.
The horn is made by snipping with scissors and folding, and the facial expression is drawn with a pen.
The impression changes depending on how you draw the eyes and mouth, allowing each creator’s individuality to shine through.
Another feature is that you can move them as you play, and making several can lead to interactive play.
It’s an origami idea that lets you enjoy both the making process and the playtime.
For Kids! How to Fold a Lucky Charm
Chansey, with its cute round silhouette, helps Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center.
Prepare pink origami paper.
First, fold it in half vertically twice and open it to make crease lines.
Fold both ends toward the creases, then from the opposite direction fold only one side toward the center crease and open it.
Using the creases, shape it like a boat and turn it over.
Slightly fold the triangular part you’ve made on both the left and right at a slant, then flip it over again.
On the side where you didn’t make the boat fold, fold toward the center to make a crease, then fold again along that crease.
Trim the corners while forming the legs to complete Chansey’s body.
Make Chansey’s egg pocket with a smaller piece of origami paper.
Finally, draw the face to finish your Chansey!
A 3D-cute Bulbasaur
One of the original starter Pokémon in the series, Bulbasaur, a Grass- and Poison-type.
Prepare two sheets of light green origami paper measuring 7.5 cm and one sheet of dark green origami paper.
Use the light green paper for the face and body, and the dark green paper to make the seed on Bulbasaur’s back.
For the face, start by folding into a triangle, and aim for an overall oval shape when finishing.
Don’t forget to draw the face after folding! For the body, start by making a vertical crease, fold the legs, and finish it to give a bit of three-dimensionality.
For the seed, start by folding into a triangle twice, and shape it into a plump, bulb-like form.
Finally, glue all the parts together to complete it!
Characters/Animals (41–50)
Also great as a display decoration! How to fold a unicorn
The unicorn origami, with its fairy-tale-like atmosphere, is charming for its soft colors and simple shape.
First, fold the paper to form the shape of a unicorn.
Once the overall silhouette is set, trim any excess with scissors.
Use the cut-off paper as the horn.
Draw the horn, mane, and facial features with a pen to complete your very own unicorn.
Choosing pale colors for the paper enhances its cuteness, and displaying several together creates a cohesive decorative set.
Once finished, place them on a desk or shelf to create a sweet, charming space.
