Folding origami fortune tellers is my go-to kids craft for party favors. It is simple, inexpensive, and great fun for a wide range of ages. For the younger kids, I do all the folding and let them decorate with stickers, drawing, etc… For slightly older kids, I fold to make the crease lines, unfold, and let them replicate it themselves. And of course for the much older kids, I just provide the instructions. Here are a couple of printable instructions:
6″ square is a standard origami paper size. You can easily find seasonal and holiday paper in the scrapbook section of craft stores. Conveniently, 12″ square is a standard scrapbook paper size – all you have to do is cut it in fourths!
