Materials: black marker, scissors, glue stick and colored square origami.

1, take a square colored paper and fold it into a triangle.

2. After opening, fold both sides of the origami towards the center, as shown in the figure below.

3. Fold it in half before opening it, and then cut it along the red vertical line on the triangle.

4. Glue the upper part of the triangle into a solid shape along the folding line with double-sided tape, so that the fish's body is ready.

5. Cut the open side of the three-dimensional fish into a semicircle, and the head shape of the small fish will come out.

6. Cut two white circular pieces of paper with a diameter of one centimeter as the eyes of the fish and stick them on the head of the fish.

7. Then cut a pair of fins to make them look better with different colors of the fish. Stick it on the bottom of the fish head, then cut a heart-shaped fish tail and stick it on the fish tail.

8. Cut out the lower part of the fish's mouth with paper of the same color as the fish's body and stick it under the fish's head.

9. Finally, draw eyes on the fish with a black marker, then hook the tail and fins and draw stripes, so that a three-dimensional fish is completed.

The benefits of doing manual work for children

1, help exercise children's concentration:

Let children have the will and motivation to complete a work of art through encouragement or reward. In the production process, children need to hear and analyze instructions, and then execute them, which can exercise their ability to accept, understand and execute instructions.

2. Learn new words and things:

In the process of making, children will be exposed to many new words and things, such as "glue", "scissors", "stick together" and "cut into a circle" In this way, children can learn more daily language and common sense.

3, establish a sense of responsibility:

Starting with simple production, children get satisfaction by completing an art project. As children grow older, they need to try longer, more responsible and more difficult art production. This helps to cultivate children's sense of responsibility and bravely adhere to the task.

4, exercise thinking and problem-solving ability:

In the production process, you will certainly encounter such problems. Children need to use their brains to solve these problems, which can exercise their thinking ability and problem-solving ability.

5. Exercise your imagination:

Handmade is a creative process, and children can freely exert their imagination and create unique works, thus exercising their imagination.
