Our children (ages 6 and under) are homeschooled, and we checked this book out from the juvenile section of our library for our study on Japan. We loved it so much that we are planning to buy it very soon from .com (with our next order). I love the way it explains how to make things. There is a very good explanation (with both drawings and pictures) at the beginning of the book showing how to make all the various basic folds you need to know, as well as the meaning of symbols used throughout the book. Then there are pages of things you can make, and they are divided by difficulty level -- very easy, easy or more challenging. Now, my girls are young and might not have the patience to do much origami yet, but it would be a great book if they were just a bit older. They loved the tree, butterfly and airplanes I made them though. I plan to buy this book and add it to our personal home library, so we can use it more often. You can use the "search inside" feature to see examples of the pages in this book. We loved this book and we hope you will enjoy this book also.
I needed to do some origami for a craft project with kids. I found the instructions in this book the easiest to understand and get started with quickly (from looking at several books). Lots of fun items to make. Highly recommended. (In fact, this might be my first review ... I am so grateful for this help from this book that I wanted to recommend it.)
A VERY VERY GOOD BOOK TO START WITH....HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ALL THE STARTERS THAT LOVE TO DO ORIGAMI...AND STARTING OFF WITH THE TINY STUFF IS ALSO CUTE...I CAN ALREADY MAKE STARS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, NINJA STARS, SHIRTS SKIRTS, AND MANY MORE
