Easy Origami (Dover Origami Papercraft)over 30 simple projects

We have about 80 kids and about half of them are learning to do origami right now. These have been so helpful to them! They love the colors and how easy it is to fold. The paper seems to last a long time, and all the books are perfect for helping them to learn. I think that this was a great find, and a great price!

As a beginner to origami I find this book to be clear and easy to follow. The shapes are simple allowing for learning easily.

When I first opened the package and started looking through the book, I noticed that the front page was folded. This doesn’t seem to be an issue with the manufacturer itself, but more likely related to the packaging or shipping process. Aside from that, the paper quality is very nice. The images are clear and fairly descriptive for making origami. I appreciate that the book includes a contents page and an explanation of the symbols used, such as lines and arrows, and what they represent. This makes it much easier to understand the diagrams in each step. The book also includes written instructions in addition to the images, which is very helpful and adds extra clarity, especially for beginners. Overall, it’s a well-made and thoughtfully designed origami book. Pros: • Durable, good-quality paper • Clear diagrams • Includes a contents page • Helpful explanation of symbols and diagrams • Some written instructions included along with visuals Cons: • Front page arrived folded (likely a packaging/shipping issue) • Black-and-white images only (may not appeal to everyone) • There is not written instruction with every step, may make it difficult for those just getting started with origami

Excellent choice for 11 year old interested din origomi.

Easy to follow, I mainly used the one page patterns. It does take a little imagination and creativity for several patterns when folding. I used the origami created and those I refolded into other similar animals for A Seasonal Origami Potpurri Tree. I would only recommend this book for several creations easy to follow without much imagination or confusion. The tulip well, didn’t work out as illustrated. The birds are lovely, with the pelican alone the book regains indispensable value. The pelican easily mastered and well illustrated you can create other birds even a peacock and duck. The water bomb is quite easy to make and the lantern can also be refolded into a shirt or blouse or turtle neck. The dog can also be shaped into a reindeer or bull. You will get value from this Origami Book, the price is excellent. With animal origami also consider that a cat or dog looks like many animals so be creative and take your time enjoying the sport of Origami.

The book has a lot of examples with easy to follow instructions. So fun! I set it out for the college kids I work with and they had such a good time making their origami items.

wanted one thing, a crane. my fault for not reading that the crane isn’t one of the 32 folds. now i have to find another book to get the instructions ( easier than trying to follow online, which isn’t working for me ) which is too bad because the origami in the book are all clearly shown and easy to follow.

This book has a page explaining the folding symbols which make it easy to follow instructions.

Para un niño de 9 años lo ha mantenido muy entretenido. Las instrucciones son simples, en inglés. Está ilustrado paso a paso en blanco y negro. Tiene 32 proyectos. Parecen sencillos pero si no tienes mucha práctica pudieran ser algo complicados. Te ayuda a desarrollar concentración y paciencia.

Very good book but a little bit to small, thought it was going to be a lot bigger and more pages. But it’s still good and easy to follow the instructions to the different figures

It seems little complex. My kids get bored and stopped using. I was thinking the effect would be opposite.

This is an excellent book for kids 8+ or adults to learn the basics of origami. Unlike other books we've tried, the diagrams are very easy to follow and include text when necessary to clarify what you are supposed to do. We haven't gotten frustrated or lost at all, and have been able to create a lot of great looking finished pieces. The book begins with very simple pieces that require no more than a few folds (cat and dog heads), and then progresses through somewhat complex (but still easy) pieces like boxes and a jumping frog. Do be sure to get yourself some quality origami paper to use along with this book. Paper that has one coloured and one uncoloured side will work best, as a few of the designs make use of this.

全ページモノクロで、折り方を図と僅かな英単語で説明しています。 そのためページ数の割に折り方収録数が多いです。 鶴の折り方はありません。鶴よりもっと簡単に折れるものばかりで、初めて折り紙を見た外国人でも迷わず折れそうなものばかりです。 価格的にも気軽に差し上げられる価格になっていて、外国人に折り紙を紹介するのに最適な本だと思います。
