Some characters are simply impossible not to smile at, and Winnie the Pooh is right at the top of that list. With his round tummy, stubby arms, and a love of honey that gets him into gentle trouble every time, he's been a quiet companion to generations of readers—myself included. Folding him out of a single square of paper feels like summoning a tiny, patient friend onto your desk.

This is a 24-step build, so it's a touch more involved than a quick fold, but every step is a basic valley or mountain crease—nothing scary. Pour something warm, take it one step at a time, and by the end you'll just need to add his friendly face with a pen. Let's fold Pooh.

Hello, this time I tried folding the Disney character Winnie the Pooh, who loves honey, with origami paper.

There was a picture book of Winnie the Pooh in the culture class with childcare that I was doing, and I read it to my child many times.

It's a cute story that Pooh, who loves honey, eats too much honey and gets overweight, and his bottom splits open (laughs).

Let's fold a cute bear like a stuffed animal with origami paper!
