[Childcare] Simple origami ideas for kids, perfect for spring

A cute bush warbler you can carry on your back!

One Sheet of Origami [Bush Warbler] Origami Japanese nightingale (warbler)

Here’s an idea for a display where you can place another origami creation, like an animal, on its back.

First, fold the paper in half into a triangle twice, then open it once.

Fold both ends up toward the crease that formed in the center.

Next, turn it over and fold up the open section, then fold up the previously folded section in the same direction.

Open one of the parts you folded later to form a small square, then make a beak to create the bush warbler’s face.

Fold back the large flaring section and shape it to form the bush warbler’s belly.

Fold in the extra corners to make the wings, glue any parts that tend to open, and you’re done.

Add the bush warbler’s eyes with round stickers or by drawing them with a pen.

Place your other origami creations on the wing section!

Cute way to fold rapeseed blossoms

[Origami Spring Flowers] Easy and Cute Canola Flower Folding Method Origami Canola Flower

Let’s brighten up your room by making canola flowers that will lift your spirits just by looking at them! Prepare one sheet of standard-size yellow origami, three sheets of yellow origami each at one-quarter of the standard size, and one sheet of green origami that’s half the size of a standard sheet.

All of the yellow sheets, regardless of size, will be used for the flower portions of the canola blossoms.

To represent the canola’s delicate petals, fold each into fine small squares and similar shapes.

Cut the green origami in half; then cut one of those halves in half again, and then cut one of the resulting pieces in half once more, to make a total of four parts.

Use these to create the stems and leaves, and combine them with the flowers you made earlier to complete the piece!

A curious piece of origami where a flower dropped upside down springs right back up.

It’s an idea that older kindergarteners bursting with curiosity are sure to love! First, fold the origami paper in half horizontally, then fold it halfway toward the crease, and again halfway… adding lots of crease lines.

It may seem a bit complicated, but once you understand the steps, it’s actually easy.

Try it while playing the video in slow motion.

It’s a delightful pop-up flower you’ll want to drop again and again.

Easy! Recommended in spring: How to fold a horsetail (origami)

[Origami] Easy Horsetail Craft Tutorial – Spring Origami for March and April – An easy method kids can make [Origami]

Let’s try making spring-like horsetail (tsukushi) with origami.

For this model, cut a 15 cm sheet of origami into thirds, so you can make three stems from one sheet! First, place the origami horizontally and fold it in half by bringing the left and right edges together.

Open it after creasing, then with the colored side facing up, fold the right edge to the crease.

Flip the paper over, fold the top and bottom edges inward, and make it into thirds.

Next, make a pleated fold (accordion fold) along the boundary where the color changes, and do the same pleated fold in the middle of the colored section.

Then fold the top and bottom edges of the colored section inward to make it narrower, and round the four corners of the white section by folding them in.

Draw patterns with a pen, and your tsukushi is complete!

How to fold a cute bush warbler

[Spring Origami] How to fold an easy bush warbler with one sheet of origami

This is a spring bird, a Japanese bush warbler, made from a single sheet of origami paper.

First, fold the paper into a triangle, then unfold it once you’ve made a crease.

Next, fold the two bottom edges up to meet the crease.

Where the center overlaps, lift the corner up, then squash it down along the crease.

This becomes the bird’s wing.

From here, continue folding along the creases and edges of the paper to shape it into a bush warbler.

Once you’ve made the wings, there are no difficult steps, so go ahead and finish your charming bush warbler and enjoy a touch of spring.

A tulip you can stand up and display! A three-dimensional tulip

Origami/Tulip | Enjoyable Easy Origami “Tulip Origami | Easy Craft”

Here’s a cute tulip idea you can display on a tabletop rather than on a wall.

For the flower, fold a sheet of origami paper into a triangle twice, then squash the pocket into a square.

Fold the left and right corners inward to form the tulip shape.

Before spreading the flower open from the center, make a small cut at the bottom with scissors so you can insert the stem later.

The leaf and stem are made from a single sheet of origami paper.

First, fold it into a triangle once.

Open it after creasing, then fold the two left edges to the crease line twice, and the right edge once to the crease line.

This way, the stem will be on the left and the leaf on the right.

Finally, fold the stem and leaf together in half, and insert the stem into the flower to finish.

Easy and cute tulip

[Origami Tulip] Very Easy Way to Make It 💙 Step-by-Step Explanation — How to make very simple tulip origami

It’s an idea that takes six folds for the flower part and seven folds for the stem and leaves.

This count includes steps like folding corners to refine the shape and pulling out the leaves, so when you actually make it, it will feel simpler.

First, fold the flower origami into a triangle, then fold both corners up diagonally.

Next, fold the left, right, and bottom corners into triangles to finish the flower.

For the stem and leaves, fold the origami into a triangle twice, then unfold one layer to return to a single fold.

Fold the left and right edges to meet the center line.

Then fold up the bottom, fold the paper in half, and pull apart the split sections on both sides to form the leaves.

The part left in the center is the stem, so attach the flower there to complete it.
