Origami ... Sort Of

I don't think this exactly qualifies as origami (as there was cutting and gluing involved), but we've had fun with these kaleidoscopes from "Folding for Fun: Origami for Ages 4 and Up." To make them, you cut a 1-1/2-inch strip of paper, fold it into 10 triangles, and you eventually end up with three surfaces for drawing three unique designs. Through the "magic" of folding, three additional patterns emerge.











Oooohhh! Aaahhh!
