You can make a toy frog from a plastic drink bottle.
Japanese page : Making a Frog with a Plastic Bottle
Things we use
500ml plastic drink bottle, a permanent marker, a cutter, scissors
How to make it
Draw a line (about 5cm from the nose to the bottom) to cut off, on the bottle.Then,draw a frog’s face.
Cut off the under parts of the bottle.
Cut along the line with scissors.
If you use a round shaped plastic bottle, it’ll be more like a frog.
Fold the frog’s body in half and crease it well.
Fold the feet part forward in half and crease.
When you see from the side, it looks like “Z” shape.
Finished!
Press down the bottom of the frog with your finger.
When you press downwards and flick it, the frog will jump high.
It jumps diagonally about 50cm.
