It moves! You can play with it! Fun origami. How to make origami toys.

Spins round and round! A flying toyNEW!

[Can be made in 1 minute] Spins and flies! This paper toy is god-tier lol ◇ Moving origami #movingorigami #papertoy #origami #papertoy #spinningtoy

It’s an easy-to-make toy that you’ll want to play with over and over.

First, fold the origami paper into a triangle, then roll it up tightly into a long, thin shape starting from the center.

That’s all there is to making it! To play, simply snap open the final folded tip and let go—the piece will shoot off with great speed.

The direction you unfold it affects how well it spins, so experiment and see what works best.

Once it has opened up, you can fold it back the same way and play again and again!

Suisui Snake

Origami toy “Suisui Snake” (Sliding Snake)

Let’s make a sleek, gliding Sui-Sui Snake! The steps where you add creases and form the snake’s body might be a bit tricky, but since many of the folds are repeated, give it a try.

It’s also great that you can make it with just a single sheet of origami paper! Once you finish, draw your favorite snake face, or try using gold or silver origami paper to make a shiny snake—that would be fun too! After you make your snakes, race with friends to see whose can glide the farthest and have fun playing!

Bouncy Bunny

[7 million views] Origami Rabbit That Hops: How to Make a Jumping Rabbit

The fun part of origami isn’t just the time you spend folding—it’s also being able to admire and play with what you’ve made afterward.

If you make a sailing boat, you can float it on a kiddie pool; if you make a pinwheel, you can hold it up to the wind and watch it spin—the fun just keeps going.

Here we’re introducing the “Hopping Bunny.” After you fold it, you can flick its backside and actually make it hop.

There’s a similar one called the “Hopping Frog.” Since there are over 30 folding steps, the difficulty is somewhat on the advanced side.

It might be fun to prepare larger sheets of paper and fold together while giving a lesson.

[Origami] How to Make a Paper Dragonfly: A Simple, Fun Propeller You Can Play With – Origami Paper Copter [With Voice Commentary] / Baaba’s Origami

This is called a paper helicopter.

When you drop it from a high place, its two blades spin as it falls, making it a very fun origami craft.

It’s very easy to make, so try making several.

Since you’ll use scissors, please have a guardian supervise small children.

This paper helicopter shows both front and back sides, so using double-sided origami makes it colorful and is recommended.

The way it falls varies depending on the paper’s thickness and type, so try different kinds of paper.

snake-in-the-box

Henteko Origami “Hebikkuri-bako” Action Origami: Snake-in-the-Box

Introducing the “Snake-in-the-Box,” a jack-in-the-box where a snake pops out.

You’ll crease the origami while changing the angle as you fold.

After folding the snake’s mouth, the key step is shaping the origami corner to a 90-degree angle.

This becomes the jack-in-the-box section from which the snake emerges.

Finally, accordion-fold the snake’s body with alternating mountain and valley folds, place it into the jack-in-the-box you made, and you’re done.

Pinch both sides of the box section with your fingers, and when you let go, the wiggly snake will pop out! It’s a lot of fun—be sure to try making one yourself.
