    About this ebook

    Perfect for Sunday school lessons and youth group activities--paper figures are the best way to share the greatest stories ever told!

    This new interactive origami kit combines the fun of origami paper folding with the life-changing lessons of the Bible. This kit comes complete with 64 sheets of printable, double-sided folding paper for 33 different models, a full-color book, and downloadable backdrops that help youngsters tell the most popular tales from the Old and New Testaments in church or at home, including:
    • Adam and Eve--The creation of the world according to Genesis--beware, there's a snake in the garden!
    • Noah's Ark--Noah and company would have been in over their heads if not for God's providence. Don't miss the boat!
    • Moses and the Ten Commandments--God liberates the Israelites and shows them a new way to live--it's written in stone!
    • Daniel in the Lion's Den--God rescues his faithful servant from becoming so much lion chow.
    • David and Goliath--David has a giant problem, but God never misses an opportunity to rescue the faithful.
    • The Annunciation--Mary gets good news from none other than the archangel Gabriel--pass it on!
    • The First Christmas--Where does baby Jesus "hit the hay?" In a manger, of course, where both lowly shepherds and noble kings honor him.
    • The Story of Easter--Don't you love a comeback story? Look no further! After sacrificing his son on the cross, God raises Jesus from the dead, triumphing over death and evil.
    • Christ, the Good Shepherd--This reassuring tale reminds us of a loving God who guards us and guides us--even when things get wild and wooly!
    Intended for children and young adults, these interactive models enable you to retell the powerful biblical stories using lifelike folded paper figurines. The figures can be displayed as dioramas and to stage miniature reenactments that bring these sacred Bible stories to life--the perfect Sunday school craft for kids.

    This kit contains:
    • A full-color 48-page book retelling the 9 famous Biblical stories
    • 64 sheets of downloadable, double-sided folding papers in a variety of sizes and designs
    • 33 different models and tableau backdrops to display the stories as dioramas
    • Simple, step-by-step origami instructions for each character

      Origami Bible Stories for Kids Ebook - Andrew Dewar

      Reliving Stories from the Bible

      The Bible is a fascinating book to read.

      Love, hate, joy, tears, wrath, hope, giants, angels, wild animals, fighting, storms, snakes, wise men, kings, deceit, lies, revenge, redemption, birth, death—everything you need for a great story is together in this one big book.

      Turn the pages and more and more stories unfold.

      And now this set of origami Bible stories lets you fold them up again!

      The Bible has always given artists things to paint, musicians things to compose, and architects things to build. It has inspired beautiful hand-painted books, stained glass, and lots of sculpture. The high drama of the Old Testament, and the lives of Jesus and his followers in the New Testament, have been a source of stories for writers for thousands of years.

      So I suppose it was only natural that I was inspired by it too. I love to make things with paper, and all those animals and people cried out to be folded! I made lots and lots of new origami models, and chose the easiest and best looking ones to go into sets that tell some of the best-known Bible stories. You can also switch them around to make different tableaux of your own.

      I have arranged the stories in the order they appear in the Bible. But some of the early pieces are the most difficult, so I suggest you start with a few easy ones first—the pieces with the fewest steps. Take your time, look at the diagrams carefully to see how each fold is made and how it will look when you’re done, and fold as precisely as you can. The lines and patterns printed on each piece of paper will help you. And you can use your own paper to practice. Relax, enjoy yourself, and you’ll be fine.

      And in no time you’ll be looking at great Bible stories you’ve recreated yourself!

      How to Fold the Models

      All of these models are easy to fold. The instructions have been drawn with standard symbols, and the origami papers have folding guidelines and numbers printed right on them.

      Fold this way

      Fold and reopen

      Fold around behind

      Fold the whole model over

      Next is a magnified view

      Next is a reduced view

      The centers of circles show which points or edges to bring together when folding.

      Bracket marks indicate things of the same width, such as when you fold halfway along an edge.

      Bases

      A common shortcut used when describing how to fold origami is to refer to a jumping off point called a base. Here are the bases used in this kit.

      Waterbomb Base

      The Waterbomb Base is quite common. Here is an easy way to do it.

      1. Color side down, fold and unfold corner to corner. Flip the paper.

      2. Fold the paper in half and unfold it again.

      3. Collapse the sides away from you along the creases you’ve made.

      4. This is the finished Waterbomb Base.

      Fish Base

      This base looks a bit like a fish without a tail. It has two flaps in the middle that can be used to make fins, legs, and all sorts of things.

      1. Start color side down. Fold and unfold to the centerline from the top and bottom corners.

      2. Fold the corners in to the centerline.

      3. Press down the folds to crease the paper underneath and the Fish Base is finished.
