1. Start with a flat piece of paper. Show your little one how to fold it in half by lining up the edges. 2. Press along the fold with your finger to make a crease. Let them try. 3. Fold it in half again. Open it up — you have four sections! 4. Try folding a triangle instead. Talk about the shapes you see each time. 5. Let them fold freely and see what they can make.
