A letter of the heart

Would you like to make a heart-shaped letter with origami? First, fold a square sheet of origami paper into a triangle three times.

Once folded, draw half a heart shape, leaving the corner at the center intact, and cut along the line with scissors.

When you open it, you’ll have a heart shape.

Fold it in half along the crease, then use the remaining creases to alternate valley and mountain folds to turn it into a heart-shaped booklet.

Write your message on the inside, and it’s complete! It’s easy and cute to make, so try it with your child.
