JAPAN: Origami Butterfly
Epcot Fun Stop crafts from FamilyFun
Origami, Japan's traditional craft of paper-folding, has been used since the 10th century to 
sculpt animals and wrap gifts. Animals, birds, fish and insects are favorite origami subjects. After folding the
butterfly featured here, you can make it flutter by pressing on its back with the tip of your finger.
This colorful creature is created not by metamorphosis but by folding the origami paper in half to form a triangle, and in half again. Unfold the second triangle, then fold each side so that it crosses the center crease at a right angle. Unfold. Glue on the strips for antennae and curl them using the edge of a scissor. Glue on the googly eyes and decorate with markers.
