The mouth and tongue are glued on to the bottom half, and the teeth are glued under the rim of the top half. We’ve gone for a mouth, tongue and teeth.
Step 10: Cut out some shapes from coloured paper to decorate your monster. Step 9: Turn your square around, so that the side with the tucked in bits is at the top and the opening is pointing down – you are now ready to decorate your bookmark. Step 7: Turn your square around, so that the open end is pointing up.Then take the top corner and fold the right half of it inwards (the video makes it much clearer what to do here). You should now have a small square with the corners pointing up and down. Step 6: Repeat the same step for the top left corner.
Step 5: Now take the top right hand corner of the triangle, and fold it down to meet the middle of the corner that is pointing down. Take the top layer of the corner that is pointing down, and fold it up to meet the middle of the top edge. Step 4: Lay the triangle in front of you with the long, folded edge at the top and the right angle corner pointing down. Step 3: Cut along the top edge of the folder corner, so that you are left with a folded triangle. Step 2: Take the bottom right hand corner, and fold it up to meet the left hand side of your sheet of paper. Step 1: Place an A4 sheet of paper in front of you, with the short sides at the top and bottom. I wouldn’t go any smaller than that or it gets a bit fiddly.Īnd here are the step-by-step instrutions… The smaller bookmark in the video was made with a 15cm x 15cm square. For a smaller bookmark, you just need to cut the square in Step 1 a little smaller.

one sheet of A4 paper in a colour of your choice.Don’t worry if you’ve never done any origami before, I’ve recorded a short video to demonstrate exactly what you have to do, and if you scroll further down I’ve also included some step-by-step photos of you prefer those to the video. Older kids will be able to do all of it themselves, for younger kids you might want to have a grown-up do the folding and cutting and the kids can then have fun decorating it with pens and gluing on the cut-out shapes. This is a really easy activity that anyone can join in with. Of course, you can use it for any other books too! The activity we’ll be doing today, is making origami monster bookmarks! Later this week I’ll be sharing more details about the summer reading challenge I’m co-hosting with my friend Amanda again this year, so I thought a bookmark would be perfect for anyone who wants to join in the reading challenge. Hallo everyone, and welcome to the first day of The Bear & The Fox Virtual Summer Camp! Today we have a crafting activity for you, and since many of you won’t have had much notice, I’ve chosen something that you just need paper, pens, scissors and some glue for.
