Origami: Fox Face

A classic, kid-friendly origami project — no scissors or glue needed, just one square sheet of paper and a pen for the face. Print this page for step-by-step folding instructions.

  1. Step 1 diagramStart with a square sheet of paper. Fold it in half corner to corner to make a triangle.
  2. Step 2 diagramTurn the triangle so the long folded edge is along the top and the single point faces down — this point will become the fox’s chin.
  3. Step 3 diagramFold the two top corners up and out into sharp points above the folded edge. Unlike a floppy-eared dog, keep these ears standing up — don’t fold them down.
  4. Step 4 diagramFold the bottom point up a short way to make the fox’s chin and snout, then fold just the very tip back down to form a small snout patch.
  5. Step 5 diagramYour fox face is done — draw on two eyes, whiskers, and a round nose to finish it.
