My first experience with origami was actually in Japan 4 years ago while leading a study abroad program. We took our group to a university in Osaka and the local students taught us how to make cranes. So when I went to the local craft store yesterday and saw 6″x6″ paper in the $1 bins, I decided origami would be a great Global from Home project. These three animals are easy and would be a great project for older kids too.
12 pieces of 6″x6″ for $1
These are the real origami packs that were just a few aisles away…and $6 a pack.
