Join Origami host Emily as she shows you how to make a positively perfect Paper Cup! All you need is a sheet of paper and Activity TV! It's time to get folding!

A standard 6 or 8 inch square piece of origami paper

REMEMBER THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WORK UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. SOMETIMES WE USE THINGS THAT CAN BE HARMFUL, SO DON'T EVER ATTEMPT TO MAKE THESE PROJECTS ALONE.

  1. Start with the white side of the paper facing upward. Fold the bottom point of the paper to the top point to make a triangle, creasing from the center outward.
  2. Bring the bottom right corner of the triangle to the center of the left edge and crease.
  3. Bring the bottom left corner up to the center of the right edge and crease.
  4. Take the top flap of the triangle and fold it down as far as it will go. Crease.
  5. Turn the shape over and do the same with the remaining flap. Open the cup up and you’re done!
