12 step-by-step dinosaur origami projects for children, including paper to make them with.

Suitable for children from age 5 and upwards, Mari Ono's dinosaur origami projects are the perfect introduction to paper-folding for kids.

There are simple step-by-step instructions and clear photographs, as well as helpful arrows showing where to fold. Each design has a skill rating, so children can start with an easy one and then move on to something a bit more challenging until they are easily impressing friends with their paper-folding skills! Specially designed pieces of origami paper are included with the book, so children can start crafting straight away.
