Origami came to us from Japan. This is a way to fold paper nicely to make different objects. Engage your children and friends in this fun activity. We offer you to learn how to make an origami fox.
Muzzle assembly diagram
Little children will be very interested to learn how origami fox is made. So that the lesson does not turn into flour, start with simple schemes.
Instructions on how to make a fox face:
- Take a two-color square sheet of paper: it should be white on one side and orange on the other. If not, connect the two sheets together.
- Fold the sheet diagonally with the white side inward (Figure 1).
- Fold the top together (Figure 2).
- Bend both sides of the figure and turn it over (illustrations 3 and 4).
- Draw the elements of the face with a marker or pen.
The muzzle is ready!
We collect the whole origami fox
To get such an origami fox, you need to use not a square sheet of paper, but a regular rectangular one.
The assembly diagram is as follows:
- Fold the left corner of the sheet diagonally (Figure 1).
- Expand the sheet and bend the right side (Figure 2).
- Fold the leaf in half in length (Figure 3).
- Wrap the paper as shown in illustration 4.
- Fold in half on the bottom of the part (Figure 5).
- Wrap the top corner (Figure 6).
- Fold the bottom along the fold line (Figure 7).
- Turn the part over (Figure 8).
- Spread the edges of the lower part of the figure (Figure 9).
- Spread the top and “tail” in different directions (Figure 10).
- Fold as shown in Figure 11.
- Gently spread the figure along the formed fold lines (Figure 12).
Origami fox is ready! If desired, you can draw a muzzle with a marker or pen.
The second version of the origami fox
If you take a square leaf, you can get another model of the chanterelle :
- Fold the sheet diagonally (Figure 1).
- Expand it and fold it again diagonally, only to the other side (Figure 2).
- Wrap the left and right sides of the resulting triangle (Figure 3).
- Fold the resulting shape in half (Figure 4).
- Wrap the right side of the upper triangle, as in picture 5.
- Spread the figure along the fold lines and turn the part over (Figure 6).
- Bend the ponytail on the left and draw a muzzle (illustrations 7 and 8).
