Prehistoric Land Kids' Dinosaur Origami Kit

This dinosaur origami kit gives children everything they need to fold plain paper squares into five prehistoric creatures. It arrives in a lidded box printed with the Prehistoric Land name and a lively scene of two velociraptors. Inside sit an illustrated booklet and a stack of square origami sheets. The paper is in five soft shades, pale blue, leaf green, warm yellow, teal blue and cool grey, so every dinosaur can take its own colour. The booklet cover carries a stegosaurus among the ferns. The instructions inside run as numbered diagrams, with hands drawn in to show each fold, crease and turn.

The booklet works through five models: a pterodactyl, a velociraptor, a stegosaurus, a parasaurolophus and a triceratops. That makes it a happy match for a child who already knows their dinosaurs and wants to make a few of their own. It is also a gentle first step into paper folding. It suits a quiet afternoon at the kitchen table or a rainy weekend in the playroom. It is just as good for a grown-up and child to work through together, one step at a time. Once folded, the finished dinosaurs make a small herd for a bookshelf, desk or windowsill.

The kit is made of paper and weighs about 365g, light enough to tuck into a bag for a long journey or a visit away from home. Keep the sheets dry and store them flat in their box between sessions so the edges stay crisp. Fold on a firm, clean surface so each crease sits neatly. Because every step is numbered, children can pause partway and pick up a model again later without losing their place. The illustrated box looks bright on its own, so as a gift it needs little more than a ribbon.
