Today we’re going to learn how to make an origami frog! This project is perfect for those who are new to origami as it is a relatively simple design. Once you’ve mastered this project you can move on to other more complex origami animals.
What You’ll Need:
-One sheet of square origami paper. You can find origami paper at your local arts and crafts store or online.
-A pencil
-Scissors
-Sticky tape
Instructions:
1. Begin by folding your paper in half so that it forms a rectangle. Then fold the paper in half again so that it is now a square.
2. Next take the top left corner of the paper and fold it down to the bottom right corner. Then do the same with the top right corner folding it down to the bottom left corner. You should now have a triangular shape.
3. Now we’re going to make the frog’s head. Take the top point of the triangle and fold it down about a third of the way. Then fold the bottom point of the triangle up to meet the top point.
4. Flip the paper over and you should now see a triangular shape with a pocket in the middle. This pocket will be the frog’s mouth.
5. To make the frog’s legs take the bottom left corner of the paper and fold it up to the top right corner. Then do the same with the bottom right corner folding it up to the top left corner.
6. Now we’re going to give our frog some eyes. Cut two small circles out of origami paper or use googly eyes. Tape the eyes to the top of the frog’s head.
7. Your origami frog is now complete!
