Over 4 years ago, my wife and I launched our Youtube Origami For Kids Channel, and it’s been quite a journey. Surprisingly, the most popular video isn’t something elaborate โ€“ it’s a simple paper bowl!

Having neglected our channel for a while, today I found myself diving into Youtube Studio to explore the details. After more than 4 years, we have a modest 400 subscribers. Truth be told, we started this channel for fun and experimentation, just to dip our toes into the world of Youtube.

Now, living in Japan, the land of origami, I’m thinking of reviving our origami for kids Youtube channel. Admittedly, Hiromi and I aren’t origami pros. Our creations are super kid-friendly, quick, and uncomplicated. They might not be fancy, but they’re fun!

If you’re into simple and enjoyable origami or know someone who might be, check out our channel. Feel free to share the joy of origami-making!

Here’s a peek at our most popular origami video:
