Origami for Children: Book & Paper Pack with 35 Projects

Carino e bella carta. Purtroppo alcuni origami mancano di chiarezza soprattutto per bimbi che vogliono cimentarsi da soli

It will be a gift for my great granddaughter for Xmas/ask me in the new year how she loves it....

Cool paper art work

Wow! First thing to say is this book is great value, with the 35 'projects' included, all with instructions and 61 individual sheets of paper included to complete them (in a neat wallet at the back of the book), each with colourful and unique designs that enhance the finished Origami pieces.The paper is also really good quality, so no danger of tearing by accident.It's fair to say some of the designs are a little quirky, and you'll be creating some objects that you might not be expecting to (e.g. a pencil), but they are all intriguing. It also should be said that some of the creations are quite tricky (each project is rated for difficulty) and some of the instructions are a little challenging to follow - you won't be completing all the projects in a single sitting for sure! However, to me that's a positive, as it adds longevity to the product, and is something that can go back on the bookshelf to be pulled out again on a rainy day (my 11 year-old son has completed just over half of the projects over the course of a year). Younger children will definitely need assistance from an adult to get started, and with the more difficult projects.Really lovely book with a long shelf-life. I've included some photos to give an idea of what you get for your money. Note, I took these photos a while ago (taken me ages to post the review!) before we'd made many of the projects, but some of the sheets in the photo of the wallet in the book were a work in progress, so you don't receive them like this - when you get the book all the sheets are unfolded.

Compré este libro para mi hija de 12 años y está encantada con él. Hay proyectos de tres niveles de dificultad. El papel incluido es una idea estupenda, ya que después de practicar con folios normales su pieza de origami tiene la satisfacción de hacerlo con un papel especial que puede usar para decorar su cuarto. Ya ha hecho cajas para regalar chucherías a sus compañeros y guardar cosas menudas.He de decir que no le doy cinco estrellas porque algunos de los pasos no tienen indicaciones claras y hemos tenido que intentar el modelo varias veces. También es cierto que ninguno en casa es iniciado en origami, pero supongo que ese es el público del libro, así que no hay excusa para ello.Sin embargo, es un libro que recomiendo y que ya tengo en mi lista para algún que otro regalo de cumpleaños. No olvidéis comprar algún paquete de papel de origami extra, son económicos y las cosas quedan preciosas.
