Review on πŸ“¦ Downloadable Origami Kit Ebook: My First Origami Guide (Includes Bonus Materials) by Kelly Caballes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good introduction to origami - some steps are difficult to follow

This book requires an accompanying YouTube video or similar. Some of the descriptions and pictures are difficult to understand and I ended up looking on YouTube for clearer instructions. My son loves origami and I try to help him with it, but after a few of these I quickly lose patience with some figures. For example, the orange paper they use for the butterfly didn't show the creases well in the picture, so it's hard to see well enough to know what my creases should look like. I had to search the internet what a depth charge base is because the book didn't describe it clearly enough. Your photos were not true. The paper provided is good, the stickers are fun, and the "simple" drawings are good to start with, but I imagine most beginners with this book will need additional resources to complete some of them.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
