Last year for Christmas I received a day at a time calender. The good part of this was that each day was a different origami art work. And I could use the pages of the previous day to make my origami work. This was so neat as I had something interesting to do every day. I learned a new art form. And it showed the thought that was given in a give for me.
I love sharing original gifts in my gift guide. Also affordable ones too! So for my crafty friends and especially those who have interesting ways to look at the world I give you
World's Best Origami by Nick Robinson. This is a easy to follow book to making over 100 different origami art pieces. This book starts with the basic forms and even has my personal favorite, the Penguin. I can imagine you know that person who has everything, well bet they don't have this.
If you would like to teach you kiddo a lil on this art form then you may want to start with the grade school classic of the
Fortune Teller. You remember this one right? Pick a number and pick a color to get the answer to your question. Your kiddos will have you helping out with this one just a time or two. Then they will be answering all your questions with it.
