Origami jumping frog - step by step instruction

1. If the sheet is not square - we bend it diagonally, we cut off the excess.

   Pay attention: both ends must be as close as possible to each other, then in the future your frog will be more even and more jumping.

   The square is ready.

2. Next, we work with the workpiece - bend it horizontally, unbend it back.

   After such actions, fold lines remain, according to which in the future it will be easier to produce paper folds. Next, bend vertically.

   With this rectangle we will work further.

3. The rectangle is divided by a line of a fold in half. The upper square is bent horizontally, then unfolded back. After - bend the sheet on the corner - to the right, and unbend, then left and also unbend. Should be a "snowflake" of 6 rays, which are collected at one point.

4. Next, you need to make a "hood" - bend the edges in the form of a triangle. How to do it - tell the video.
5. Next, we make the frogs front legs - bend the edges of the triangle up.

   Then we fold the frog's body in half.

6. The edges of the lower rectangle - bend to the middle, like a shirt.

   Then - a narrow rectangular part of the crafts bend in half horizontally.

7. We make the frog its hind legs. To do this, the lower part of the craft is turned into a "boat", stretching the side triangles. How to do it - will show the video segment.

   Should be such a blank, as in the photo.

8. We bend the outer triangles - inwards, and then - back out.
   The paws are ready.
9. Fold the frog in half, and then - the bottom half again in half.

   Make a frog a spring for "jumping". We turn over to the paws - the frog is ready.

10. Color the frog.

    And you can make them several and organize competitions in jumping, because this frog is not only beautiful, but also mobile.
