Origami for Kids - Fish and Other Sea Creatures
We will be adding many varieties of fish and undersea
creatures to this page. Why not create your own aquarium!
Our origami models are listed roughly in order of difficulty,
with the simplest models first.
Ideas for using your origami fish:
- Why not create your own aquarium? Use a large piece of
blue paper or card as the background, and decorate it by cutting out weeds
from green paper and rocks from grey paper. You could stick sand or even
small pebbles along the bottom using white glue, perhaps mixing in some
glitter for effect. As you fold your fish, add them to the aquarium! Or you
could make your aquarium 3D by using a large box and painting the inside
blue (or lining it with blue paper). Hang your fish on threads from the
"ceiling" of the box.
- Use the fish to decorate greeting cards, or stick to
strips of card to make bookmarks.
- Make a mobile, by attaching transparent of white thread
to your models and hanging them from a wire coat-hanger or two pieces of
wood tied into a cross shape. Vary the length of the threads for good
effect.
- Make puppets by taping the fish to wooden spoons, chop
sticks or lolly sticks.
- Make them tiny and use as pencil toppers.
- Decorate a notice-board
- Stick a small magnet to the back of the models and turn
them into fridge magnets
