mathnerd Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 My son (8 years old) who had fine motor control challenges has refused to do any paper folding or origami until now. He seems to have made a developmental leap recently and likes to fold paper airplanes a lot. He is slowly branching out into origami. I got the book Dover's Beginner's Modular Origami for him and he can handle a lot of the pieces, but needs help from me. I want to get him a really simple book to learn the folds and simple shapes first and then move him on to the difficult stuff. I have a bunch of Japanese instructional pictorial books from Daiso (Japanese Dollar store chain), but I would also like some beginner level book recommendations in English and preferably available on Amazon. Any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squawky Acres Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 We found this Dover book to be quite easy and self-explanatory for my elementary-aged kids: http://www.amazon.com/Origami-Dover-Papercraft-simple-projects/dp/0486272982/ref=pd_sim_14_3?ie=UTF8&dpID=51GRXp0NJ2L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR120%2C160_&refRID=1V65W5R9843ETYERQBAH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
