There are many kinds of birds that you can make in origami. In this one, you will learn how to make an origami of one of the most graceful birds in existence, the swan.

What you’ll need:

  • Square piece of paper

How You’ll Do It:

Step 1

With one of the pointed side of the paper pointing at you, start folding it in a kite shape.

Step 2

Fold the paper lengthwise by the middle.

Step 3

You should now have a triangle-shaped paper. The longest point will be the swan’s head. Open it up and then reverse-fold it down.

Step 4

Open the head up by the sides and then fold along the crease on both sides.

Step 5

Reverse-fold the head back up again.

Step 6

Fold the tail down by opening the body part and folding the other end in. Close it off.

Step 7

Fold the tail right back up again. Fold the wings as far up as it can go as well.

Step 8

Bend the straight point to make the head.

You now have a nice swan to display or play with. Put it on a little stream and watch it float.
