Djeco - First Paper Foldings - 1, 2, 3… Fold! Activity Origami

Introduce little hands to the art of origami with Djeco’s First Paper Foldings 1, 2, 3… Fold! Activity Origami Set. Designed especially for beginners, this guided paper-folding kit lets children fold pre-marked sheets into charming paper animals, then attach them to illustrated backgrounds to create five finished 3D pictures. Clearly marked fold lines, a handy folding stick and easy-stick foam pads make every step achievable, so children can enjoy the satisfaction of making something beautiful all by themselves. Made for ages 4 to 7, it’s a wonderful first step into origami that builds fine motor skills, coordination and confidence.

Origami Made Easy for Beginners

Traditional origami can be tricky for young children, but this set is designed to make it simple. Each sheet is pre-marked with clear fold lines, showing children exactly where to fold. The result is accurate, frustration-free folding that keeps little makers motivated from start to finish.

Fold, Assemble and Create 3D Pictures

Children fold their paper animals, then attach them to illustrated backgrounds using double-sided foam stickers. The foam lifts each animal off the page, creating a striking 3D effect. With everything needed for five complete scenes, there’s plenty of crafting fun and five finished artworks to display or gift.

Independent Learning With Picture Instructions

A picture-only instruction booklet guides children through each step without the need for reading. Young makers can follow along independently, building focus, problem-solving skills and pride in their own achievements.

Building Fine Motor Skills and Early Origami Techniques

Folding, creasing and placing pieces is a fantastic workout for small fingers. This hands-on activity develops fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and precision, while introducing early origami techniques children can build on as they grow.

Thoughtfully Made

The set is made using FSC®-certified paper and cardboard, supporting responsibly managed forests.
