How to Make Origami Fox Ears

When I was little, one of my very favorite movies was Disney's Robin Hood. You know, the one with the foxes.

Actually, I think fox Robin Hood might have been one of my very first crushes. (Please tell me I'm not alone in this.)

Ever since then, I've had a soft spot for foxes.

So I thought this adorable DIY origami fox bookmark craft would be a fun paper craft to share with you and your kids!

Personally, I've been known to use just about anything as a bookmark: a popsicle stick, a paper clip, a piece of yarn. My current one is a used school field trip badge folded in half.

In fact, the library checkout receipt is my usual go-to.
