The Origami Fox is a popular motif in Japanese paper folding art. Origami captivates both children and adults alike. It promotes fine motor skills and stimulates the brain. For children, it is a great way to unleash their creativity, while adults can relax while doing it. Our instructions are designed so that each step is easy to follow. With videos and numerous photos, we will guide you through the folding process. Don't worry if you are unsure at the beginning – you can do it! We test each instruction with a 10-year-old child. If it works for them, it will work for you too.

The paper fox awakens the imagination of children. They can invent stories with it or use it as decoration. The Origami Fox is also excellent as a gift or for role-playing. While folding, you learn patience, concentration, and meticulousness. You quickly realize: one wrong step, and you have to start over. This helps you practice working slowly and precisely. Origami trains your endurance and discipline – important skills for life.
