In particular, children like it when something unusual and interesting comes out of something ordinary. How to make a fish out of paper? Detailed instructions will help you deal with this easily.
The easiest fish
To begin with, we bend a square piece of paper diagonally on both sides and in half horizontally. Then you need to iron the folds well and deploy them back. After that, we connect the points along the edges of the horizontal bend so that we get a triangle.
Now hold the bottom left corner of the triangle and fold it towards the center along the diagonal fold. Do the same with a different angle - we got a fish tail. Make and glue the eyes, draw a mouth - and that’s it, the inhabitant of the deep sea is ready.

An incredibly cute little project is ideal for spending leisure time together with your children, and by making several fish of different color and size, you can even create a good applique to decorate the walls in the children's room.
