This funny little elf could be busy at Christmas helping Santa Claus, or causing trouble for St Patrick's Day!
Once you have folded the model you can have fun adding facial features with pens and crayons, or by sticking on wiggly eyes as we have done.
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! Make 24 origami stars for a lovely homemade origami advent calendar!
Here's a fun elf hat craft for children at Christmas. Hang them from the tree and fill with goodies! Perhaps children could make them as a craft activity at a Christmas party and then take them home with some special treats inside?
Here's a quick Christmas craft for children of all ages which only needs some simple craft cupboard supplies. The elf shoe collage would make a cute home-made Christmas card...
