Origami - the Art of Paper Folding
Posted by The Folks at Cow & Lizard! on Jul 30th 2015
It is amazing what can be made just from folding paper - from birds to puppets, from simple to intricate - just amazing! As a kid, we loved to make the fortune tellers or some call them cootie catchers. It was great fun and we had a lot of laughs with this game. All it took was a piece of paper, a pencil or markers and some simple folding. We also liked to make paper boats or paper hats out of newspapers. There was a running stream in the woods near our house and we would have races with our decorated boats. Some good old-fashioned fun for kids - it really does not take much to have fun. No batteries, lights, sounds, cords etc. - just some imagination.
