How to Make Crying Paper Frog
?How to make a crying paper frog: step-by-step description
Step 1: Begin with a square piece of green paper.

Step 2: Fold it in half to create an oval shape, then press the fold.

Step 3: Re-open it (you should see lines of creases across the sheet).

Step 4: Fold one corner over the middle of the point where the creases meet.

Step 5: Fold the three other corners in the middle, too (all corners are at the centre).

Step 6: Fold the entire shape in half, pressing the crease with a firm hand.

Step 7: Fold the top two corners towards the centre to create an acute "frog face" shape.

Step 8: Fold the top portion down so that the top edge is clean and flat.

Step 9: The right-hand side is folded toward the middle line.

Step 10: The left-hand side is folded toward the middle line to make it match.

Step 11: Flatten everything into an elegant rectangle with a "V" at the top.

Step 12: Lift and open the flap slightly to one side.

Step 13: Then place the small tip in the pocket, or fold it to secure it in place.

Step 14: Then, pull both flaps of the top toward the sides to create the Frog's "eye" corners.

Step 15: Make another piece of paper and cut thin, long strips (for the frog's tongue or crying strip).

Step 16: Fold or roll the strip into a narrow, tight one.

Step 17: Insert this strip into the opening at the end of the frog.

Step 18: Then pull the strip back until it hangs down like a tongue.

Step 19: Put googly eyes (or draw eyes) at the two upper corners.

Step 20: Your frog's crying paper is now ready to be held. Hold the body and gently pull the strip to create a "cry/croak".

Step 21: Glue a small oval red piece of paper over the frog's mouth to create the tongue.

Step 22: Your paper, Crying Frog, is done! Take the frog with your fingers and tug the strip towards the bottom to make it cry or croak.
