Easy way to fold a crab (origami)

How to Fold Origami [Crab]: Easy Origami Folding How-to Video Series [ORIGAMing]

Here’s how to make a crab out of origami.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper and let’s get started.

Fold it in half into a square twice, then open the pocket to puff it up and squash-fold it into a triangle.

Make the crab’s legs and claws while aligning them with the center line.

The key is to make sharp creases as you fold.

You can add a face or patterns to the finished crab to create your own original design—it’s highly recommended.

Try making your own crabs and sticking them onto poster paper to create a large wall display!

Cute seashell

How to Make Origami: A Simple and Cute Seashell (For Kids!) – Origami Shell

Let’s make a summery, seasonal seashell out of origami.

Prepare one sheet of origami paper.

Fold the paper in half, then fold the left and right corners toward the center crease.

Fold toward the center crease again.

Flip it over and further fold the left and right corners toward the center crease.

Open the paper, fold the corners, and shape the whole piece into a seashell.

The overall crease lines represent the lines of the shell, giving it a more three-dimensional look.

The finished seashell is also great to incorporate into crafts that evoke an underwater scene.

An easy way to fold a whale

[Preschool Craft] Summer project! We’ll show you an easy way to fold a whale with origami!

Let’s try making one with a single sheet of origami! Here are some easy ideas for folding a whale.

How about creating a whale that swims gracefully through the vast ocean? It’ll be exciting to add facial details with crayons or pens once you’ve finished.

All you need is one sheet of blue-toned origami paper, such as light blue, plus crayons or pens.

If you plan to mount your work on construction paper for display, prepare a sheet of construction paper as well.

It could be fun to have the kids draw the ocean they imagine on the construction paper and then let the finished whale float on it.

Let’s have fun creating an ocean scene using bubble wrap as cushioning material.

First, cut the bubble wrap into circles and stick them onto construction paper.

Be sure to leave some gaps between them.

Once you’ve painted the bubble wrap with colors, imagine them as octopuses, turtles, or fish, and use paint to add legs or heads around the bubble wrap.

Finally, stick on googly-eye stickers to finish.

It’s also cute and recommended to draw seaweed in the empty spaces or use holographic round stickers to represent bubbles in the water.

Let’s have fun creating an ocean scene using a plastic bottle cap stamp that even young children can enjoy easily.

The materials are super simple! All you need is construction paper, a plastic bottle cap, paint, and a paper plate.

Squeeze your favorite paint colors onto the paper plate, dab the plastic bottle cap in the paint, and then stamp it onto the construction paper—that’s it! Using two or three colors like blue and light blue makes it look beautiful.

Finally, attach shell and fish shapes made from construction paper that you prepared in advance to complete the artwork.

It’s also lovely to add motifs you folded yourself with origami.

Give it a try for inspiration!

Let’s make a summery “Sea Creatures Tapestry.” We’ll create three creatures: a fish, a jellyfish, and an octopus.

For the fish, put crumpled tissue paper into a clear plastic bag, tie it with a pipe cleaner, then secure the corners with tape.

For the jellyfish, stuff a clear plastic bag with tissue paper, shape it into a round form with tape, and attach shredded curling ribbon to make the tentacles.

Make the octopus the same way: put tissue paper in a bag and tie it with a pipe cleaner.

For the base, thread a string through a straw, wrap the straw with curling ribbon, and then attach the creatures to complete the tapestry.

[Sea Creatures Craft 1] Easy with a paper plate! Seagull Sailor 🦤🌊 Nursery craft, preschool teacher, ideas for childcare, make it with kids, simple craft, paper plate craft, Seagull Sailor, summer craft

♪ Original Song – Hoiku Kyujin Labo – Hoiku Kyujin Labo | Nursery Teacher Job Changes and Helpful Information

Let’s make a cute seagull sailor using a paper plate.

It’s super easy! Fold the paper plate in half and position it with the curve facing downward.

Glue on a face, wings, a hat, and other parts made from construction paper, then draw the face and body with crayons to finish.

If you use a blue crayon to draw the sailor’s outfit details, it’ll look even more refreshing and summery.

The gentle rocking motion is adorable.

Be sure to craft and play while singing the song “Kamome no Suihei-san” together!
