Origami for Children. 50 Marvels Made of Paper

It's amazing what you can create by folding a sheet or two of paper! This book offers 50 creative ideas, all of which are easy to make, even for young children. The different tasks are grouped into themes that are sure to capture children's interest: Animals (make a butterfly that flaps its wings or a frog that jumps at the tip of a finger); Airplanes and Boats (fold paper into different types of crafts that are ready to take off); Toys (make tiny finger puppets or water bombs that swell by themselves); Flowers (make roses to adorn a hat or wreaths to decorate your hair); Decorations (discover the world of paper boxes, always so useful for wrapping gifts or for storage) Each of the 50 creative ideas is presented on two to four pages. Step-by-step instructions are clearly illustrated with photographs and, where necessary, drawings. There is always a picture of the finished product. Origami for Children introduces children to the joy of creating objects with their own hands, simply by folding paper. It is also an opportunity for adults to share a moment of complicity with their children.
