    I am loving these ideas, especially the one about learning origami. I’ve always wanted to learn because it just looked so cool. Maybe with this list I can check this as one thing off my list.

      My kids love origami. My creations look nothing like they are supposed to. But we have fun together and that’s all that matters. If you are a visual person the link I added is good and there are some great YouTube videos out there too.
