Origami

Origami is the Japanese art of folding ordinary sheets of paper into interesting shapes, anything from animals, birds and flowers into more complex creations. The word Origami is Japanese; oru meaning "to fold", and gami meaning "paper." Great, educational fun for children and all you need to get started is a piece of paper and a few quick folds.
