Here’s how to make a penguin bookmark that makes reading even more fun.
Get one sheet of origami paper and some colored pens, and let’s get started.
As you make the creases, you’ll form the part that slips onto the page.
When shaping the beak and wings, firmly crease the folds so the bookmark keeps a stable shape.
Color the beak and draw the face with your pens, and you’re done.
It could also make a cute little gift!
Penguin from Sumikko Gurashi
Here’s how to fold a loose and cute Sumikko Gurashi-style penguin.
Prepare one sheet of origami paper, some colored pens, and scissors.
Start by folding the origami paper into a square.
Open it once, then fold the left and right sides toward the center crease.
After making firm creases, hold the center down and fold both sides into triangles, puffing them up slightly as you go.
The key is to keep both sides symmetrical.
Make small cuts on the two layers at one tip on one side, then fold them inward.
Shape the figure, folding while letting the corners peek out a bit, and you’re done.
Use felt-tip pens to draw the face and other details—have fun creating your penguin!
Cute and easy penguin
Let me introduce an origami penguin with an adorable round shape.
After making a triangular crease, fold so that both ends become parallel.
Turn the paper over, fold the corners halfway toward the center, then fold them in half once more.
Fold both ends diagonally to form the penguin’s wings and body.
Adjust the shape, draw the penguin’s facial expression, and it’s complete.
By drawing varied expressions, you can create many different penguins.
Give it a try and have fun making them!
Santa’s boots
Let’s make Santa boots out of origami—perfect as ornaments to brighten up your room for Christmas! It’s a great craft for getting ready for the holidays with kids and also ideal for at-home playtime.
The steps are few and the method is very simple.
The final step to give the boots a rounded shape might be a bit tricky for small children, so have an adult help out.
Have fun customizing them: hang them on the Christmas tree, use them as an accent on a wreath, or attach them to Christmas presents.
Mount Fuji
https://www.tiktok.com/@yuyu_activity/video/7310802844473445634Let me show you a recommended way to fold Mount Fuji for New Year’s! Turn the origami paper over and fold it into a triangle.
With the edge facing you, take the top layer’s corner and fold it down to meet the bottom edge.
Then fold that corner slightly up so it sticks out a little past the center edge, and fold it back down to align with the edge just below.
Next, flip it over and fold both side edges diagonally so their corners stick out just a little past the bottom edge.
Fold the protruding parts up and tuck them inside, then fold down the white tip at the top—and you’re done! You can glue it onto a backing sheet and draw the first sunrise with crayons for a cute finish, so definitely give it a try!
