Olympic Torch Relay Colouring Page
The Olympic torch relay signals the exciting run-up to a new Olympic Games, and this colouring page is a great way to get the kids involved too.
What's New
Olympic Window Flags
This transparent version of the Olympic rings symbol looks striking displayed in the window, and is a great activity for learning colours and practising cutting, too.
Olympics Venn Diagram Printable
Use this Olympics Venn Diagram Printable to encourage the kids to do some thinking and sorting in the classroom! Compare and contrast the ancient and modern Olympic Games using a Venn diagram.
On The Farm Story Paper
Here's a delightful colouring page with writing lines to spark kids' imagination for some farmyard story telling! The season is Spring so this printable also works well at Easter.
One Tree Hill Colouring Page
Print and colour One Tree Hill, Auckland, New Zealand - a volcanic hill which is an important memorial for the Maoris.
One World Poster
We made the figures for our One World poster from die cut doll shapes, but you could print out some of our paper dolls. Older children may like to dress the dolls in a range of traditional costumes.
Orange Jelly Pumpkins
Our orange jelly pumpkins are a Halloween craft which you can eat! Adult supervision definitely required...
You will need:
Origami Angel Fish
This is the simplest of all origami fish - using just two folds - but it is very effective, especially if you make a few! The position of the folds can be a little confusing, but once you have the hang of it you will find the fish very easy and quick to make.
Origami Basket
These origami baskets are fun to fold and useful in all sorts of ways - see some ideas below. You will need a pair of scissors for this model (so it is more strictly kirigami than origami)
Origami Bat
This origami bat is a straightforward model - but it does cheat by using a pair of scissors, which is not strictly allowed! The traditional origami bat model is quite tricky to fold so we have simplified it to produce this one which is great for children to fold but still very effective.
Origami Blouse
The perfect partner to the origami shirt, this model is actually a little easier to fold. It is a good model for the front of a card (perfect for a birthday or perhaps for Mother's Day).
Origami Box
This little origami box is useful for storing all sorts of treasures - and it is great fun to fold too. Once you have mastered the technique you will be wanting to fold boxes of all shapes, sizes and colours!
Origami Broomstick
Although this is not strictly origami, it is made out of origami paper and fits perfectly with our origami models, such as the witch's cat.
Origami Bunny
This very cute origami bunny is fun to make all year round, but particularly appropriate at Easter time!
Origami Business Card Holder
This makes a great little present for someone who has their own business cards - or get the kids to make some! Perfect for Father's Day, Mother's Day or any day. This clever origami business card holder has 4 pockets and is folded out of A4 or letter-sized paper.
Origami Candle And Candleholder
There are traditional origami candle models, but they are very, very difficult! Weve cheated a little, therefore, to create this origami candle for kids to fold, but the finished result is very impressive!
Origami Carp Kite
On Children's Day in Japan, families hang out an array of colourful carp kites to symbolize their children growing up healthy, determined and strong.
Origami Cat
This cute origami cat is probably the easiest of our origami animals, so it is perfect for beginners.
Origami Cat 2
We have quite a collection of these little cats flying around on the front of our fridge on broomsticks at the moment! They make the perfect witch's cat for Halloween, but are cute enough to be enjoyed all year round.
Origami Christmas Chain
These Christmas Chains aren't strictly origami - but they work well with origami paper!
