I have a fun craft for you today. And, the cool part is it is just made with some standard paper and a pair of scissors. I am going to show you how to make a Paper Spinner. When made correctly you simply throw it up in the air and watch it spin gracefully the whole way down. I don’t know what’s more fun….. the making of the craft or playing with the craft once it is finished. So, grab some paper and a pair of scissors and let’s get started.

How to Make Origami Boats
Today I’m going to show you how to make Origami Boats. When made with waterproof paper like waxed paper or cellophane these Origami Boats will actually float. Use them in the bathtub or in a puddle outside. Not only is this craft fun to make, but it is equally fun to play with the Origami Boat once made. You can even add toothpicks to the boat to give the illusion that the boat has oars. So, grab the materials needed for this craft and let’s get started.
How to Fold 5 Pointed Stars
In this post I’m going to show you an easy way to fold a 5 pointed star. The stars in the blue field of the American flag are five-pointed.

These 5 pointed stars are great to use to not only make a flag, but to decorate Christmas trees, packages, boxes, cards, toy crowns, and play costumes. So, grab some paper and a pair of scissors and let’s get started.
