How to fold an origami bunny ears

Fold a sheet into a long strip and round both ends. Fold it on a slant in the middle so the bottom half swings up beside the top half as a pair of tall ears.

You need: 1 sheet of A4 or letter paper, grey on one side, and a white pen. Easy, 6 steps, about 4 minutes.

Steps

  1. Sides to the middle. Start white side up. Fold the left and right edges in to meet in the middle.
  2. In half. Fold the left half over onto the right half, so you have a long, thin strip.
  3. Round the top. Fold the two top corners behind a little, so the end is round like an ear tip.
  4. Round the bottom. Fold the two bottom corners in a little the same way, but to the front.
  5. Swing up the second ear. Fold the bottom half up on a slant, creasing across the middle, so its end stands up to the right of the top end.
  6. Stand them up. Turn the paper a little, so the two ears lean out evenly.

Hop hop!

Draw a long white inner ear on each ear. Tape the bottom to a paper headband and hop about.
