Really Big Origami

Duy Nguyen—the popular author of Dinosaur Origami, Origami Holidays, Origami USA, and many others—has devised something really BIG for kids. These gloriously large-size projects simply tower above other origami creations. And best of all, they don’t require special paper: practically anything that takes a fold without ripping—newspaper, brown wrapping, gift wrap—will work beautifully. So kids can start experimenting right away with what’s available around the house. Among the exciting ideas to craft, play with, or just display: school supplies (including a ruler), a kimono, green and blue samurai hats, masks, a shiny red phoenix rising, a newspaper elephant, and white, brown, and gold bears. As always, instructions for every fold are right up front.
