Cute for moon-viewing too! A rabbit face

First, with the colored side facing out, fold along the diagonal to make a triangle.
Then crease by folding so that the left and right tips of the triangle meet.
Next, fold so that the 90-degree corner overlaps the center of the base, and then fold the left and right corners along the creases to form an overall diamond shape.
Fold the left and right corners to the center, and make a small fold in the bottom corner.
Finally, fold the top corner down to meet the left and right corners, and you’re done.
When you turn it over, it will be shaped like a rabbit’s face, so draw the face with a marker to finish.
The steps aren’t complicated, but there are quite a few folds, so take your time and give it a patient try.

Easter eggs made with a stamp
Here’s how to make colorful Easter eggs using a pom-pom stamper.
Gather paint, a pom-pom stamper, white drawing paper, paper cut into egg shapes, and round stickers.
Dip the stamper in paint and stamp it onto the paper to add color.
The key is to choose bright, spring-like colors.
Cut one sheet of paper into a bunny base, and cut the painted paper into a cracked-egg shape, then glue them together.
Finally, attach the eyes and ears to finish! Drawing the face with crayons is also a great option.

It’s sure to become a cute keepsake.

How about making the Easter bunny, a character from the spring holiday, out of origami? After folding the paper into a triangle twice, open the pockets on both sides and flatten it into a square.
Place it with the flaps at the top, then fold the top corner down to the bottom corner.
Flip it over and do the same—doesn’t it start to look like a bunny? The two triangles become the ears, so fold them in toward the center line on the left and right.
Shape the chin and ears to complete the face.
The body is a bit more complex to fold, so please work on it together with an adult or teacher.
Once you glue the face and body together, your cute bunny is complete!
