Origami, Japan's traditional craft of paper-folding, has been
used since the 10th century to sculpt animals and wrap gifts.
Animals, birds, fish and insects are favorite origami subjects.
After folding the butterfly featured here, you can make it
flutter by pressing on its back with the tip of your finger.
This colorful creature is created not by metamorphosis but by
folding the origami paper in half to form a triangle. Fold the
triangle in half again. Unfold the second triangle, then fold
each side so that it crosses the center crease at a right angle.
(Continuation of above directions.) Unfold. Glue on the strips
for antennae and curl them using the edge of a scissor. Glue on
the googly eyes and decorate with markers.
