Origami for Kids divider panel
All of us used an inexpensive cardboard A4 ring binder to store our origami models, split into three sections:
First, we hole punched various pieces of coloured credit card for the front of the binder, onto which we stuck our models. Some pages we filled up model by model, once we finished them, dating them and adding one or two comments along the way. Other pages we "themed" - by using a darkish blue piece of card as a background for our various fish models, and adding some decals to make it look more interesting. We connected our models to the card with a glue stick.
Second, we added a number of plastic sleeves into which we slipped the origami instructions we had printed out, ready to try.
3 rd, we used sticky-tape to attach a big envelope to the inside back side of the ring binder, through which we store our origami paper safely.

Comments from our Visitors
"I found this site just today as my children asked about learning origami, not my favourite subject as in the past ten years, I've purchased three different 'origami for beginners' packages and have never maintained to complete a single (simple! ) job
"Today, I 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. Typically the instructions are excellent - definitely the best I have seen and the projects good. What a great way to spend a rainy day and the youngsters enjoyed it immensely... as did I for once"
Call and make an Origami Scrapbook or Ring Binder
One of the downsides of origami is having an irritating collection of paper masterpieces cluttering up the house, and nothing specifically to do with them!
The majority of the origami models at Activity Village are "flat" and therefore lend themselves to an origami scrapbook or engagement ring binder.
Your son or daughter can store their important work, show it off when they wish to, add to the personal pages with drawings, writing, stickers, or other adornment, and date their models so that they have a record of their achievements and progression.
