In the mid-1970s, Neil Elias of the United States designed the "box pleating method" system. Through this system, paper can be folded into hexagons, and then 45-degree creases are used inside these hexagons to create different types of animals and people. Sometimes more than one thing can be folded with a piece of paper, such as a matador and a cow, a China rickshaw puller, or a mother pushing a stroller.
In the early 1990s, "combined works" became popular in the field of origami: when one module passes through the open space of another module, many modules can be buckled together to form a complex origami work.
Origami can exercise children's finger flexibility, separate hands-on ability and innovation ability; This must be done step by step. In this process, children can also develop the good habit of doing things step by step, methodically and conscientiously, and also cultivate their observation and attention.
