Origami for Kids divider panel
We used a cheap cardboard A4 ring binder to store our origami models, divided into three sections:
First, we hole punched various pieces of coloured cards for the front of the binder, onto which we stuck our models. Some pages we chock-full model by model, as we finished them, dating them and adding one or two comments along the way. Other pages we "themed" - by using a darker blue piece of card as a background for our various fish models, and adding some stickers to make it look more interesting. We linked our models to the card with a glue stick.
Second, we added a Faire Un Bateau En Papier Qui Flotte number of plastic-type sleeves into which we slipped the origami instructions we had printed out, ready to try.
3rd, we used sticky-tape to attach a big envelope to the inside back side of the ring binder, through which we store our origami papers safely.

Comments from our Visitors
"I found this site just today as my children mentioned learning origami, not my favourite subject as in the past a decade, I've purchased three different 'origami for beginners' kits and have never handled to complete a single (simple! ) task
"Today, I actually made my first origami 'basket' - whilst my 8 and 9 year olds made their first fleet of ships, plants, a zoo filled with origami animals and more. The instructions are excellent - definitely the best We have seen and the tasks good. What a great way to spend a rainy day Origami Crane Project and the youngsters enjoyed it immensely... as did I for once"
Make An Origami Scrapbook or Ring Binder
One of the downsides of origami is having an frustrating collection of paper designs cluttering up the house, and nothing particularly to do with them!
Typically the majority of the origami models at Activity Town are "flat" and therefore lend themselves to an origami scrapbook or engagement ring binder.
Your child can store their valuable work, show it off when they would like to, add to the person pages with drawings, writing, stickers, or other adornment, and date their models so that they have a record of their achievements and progression.
