Folding paper boats

Can you still remember how simple paper boats are made? Are you out of practice? Test the folds with a sample sheet

This is done by folding a rectangular piece of paper in half, folding two corners so that they meet exactly in the middle, creating a paper point. The two lower corners of the untouched paper edges are folded up, at the corners they are folded around the paper tip. The resulting paper bag is now pulled apart and re-folded "crosswise", those of the paper bag Lace are pressed to the new tip. Afterwards the paper shuttle only is still pulled apart! Please also see our step-by-step diagrams below in this manual.

Use papers of your choice for your nautical boats, fold them in different sizes.
