Origami Star
This is a very simple origami star which even the youngest
children can make. As you will need three squares of paper and a glue
stick to complete the model, it isn't origami in the true sense!
If you leave the front flap of your star unglued, your child can
draw a picture or write a message inside - which makes these fun as gift tags or
greetings cards.

I am a STAR because ...
How about using them for an "I am a STAR because ..." activity.
Each child makes their own origami star then writes down 1, 2 or 3 (you specify)
points about what makes them special inside the star. Perhaps they could write
their name on the front and you could display them in the classroom. Or ask each
child to write one for another child - great for self esteem.
Origami Star Advent Calendar
Use this simple origami star to make an advent calendar: the front flap opens up
so that you can conceal a picture or message inside. Perfect for a child to make
for a younger sibling. Make the stars out of bright and shiny paper and stick
them all over a large piece of cardboard, either painted or covered in gift
wrap. Now write the numbers 1-24 randomly on the stars.
You could use our Christmas gift tags as the secret picture inside each star!
