Introduction
Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding. It is a relaxing and satisfying activity that can be enjoyed by all ages. In this tutorial, we will teach you how to make an adorable penguin with origami. This project is perfect for beginners and will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete.
Materials Needed
To make your origami penguin, you will need the following materials:
- One square piece of black paper (15cm x 15cm)
- One square piece of white paper (15cm x 15cm)
- A pair of scissors
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Folding the Black Paper
Take the black paper and fold it in half diagonally to make a triangle. Then, fold the triangle in half again to make a smaller triangle. Unfold the paper, and you should have two crease lines that intersect in the center of the square.
Step 2: Folding the Wings
Take the top layer of the left side and fold it along the crease line towards the center. Repeat on the right side. Then, fold the tip of each wing down at a slight angle.
Step 3: Folding the Feet
Take the bottom left corner of the paper and fold it up along the crease line to create a small triangle. Repeat on the right side. Then, fold the tip of each triangle back down to create the penguin's feet.
Step 4: Folding the Head
Take the top layer of the paper and fold it down at a slight angle. Then, fold the tip of the paper back up to create the penguin's head.
Step 5: Folding the Beak
Take the white paper and fold it in half diagonally to make a triangle. Cut a small triangle from the folded side of the paper to create the beak. Unfold the paper, and you should have a small white triangle.
Step 6: Attaching the Beak
Glue the white triangle onto the penguin's head to create the beak.
Step 7: Finishing Touches
Use a black pen to draw the penguin's eyes and any other desired details.
