Friendly Fox Origami

Friendly Fox Origami

Time:10 min Difficulty:Medium  

You don’t need to think outside the fox for this one! Just grab some paper and go fur it! Before you know it, you’ll have this friendly fox friend to keep you company!

Here’s what you need:

  • A square piece of paper
    Tip: Upcycle an old piece of paper or newspaper instead of using something new
  • A marker to make the eyes
  • A flat surface
  • An adult to help

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1: Turn your paper so it’s a diamond. Fold it in half by bringing the top corner to the bottom corner, and then unfold it. Next, fold it in half again by bringing the left corner to the right. This time, keep it folded so you end up with a triangle pointing right.

Step 2: Fold the top and bottom corners toward the right tip. Your paper should look like a small diamond.

Step 3: Bend the top corner back towards the bottom corner. Your paper should look like a triangle.

Step 4: On the right side of your triangle, you should have three layers of paper. Fold the top layer towards the center of your triangle, leaving the other two layers where they are.

Step 5: Next, pull the second layer apart and push the tip downward. This should make a diamond and will be your fox’s head.

Step 6: Fold a small bit of the left corner inwards to make your fox’s tail.

Step 7: Sit your fox up and give it a face!

  1. I will probably be sure to tell my friend who loves origami. I personally don’t think I have the patience to do that but it looks cute so I might try.
