This one-of-a-kind kit encourages children to discover some of the Bible's greatest stories while they engage their hands in the age-old Japanese art of paper folding! Each project introduces a story and explains the significance of the original pieces. Kids - including homeschoolers, youth groups and Sunday school classes - can arrange the pieces into diaramas or use them to illustrate miniature reenactments.

Combine the age-old Japanese art of paper folding with some of the greatest stories from the Bible!

Bible Origami kit is a new boxed set from well-known papercrafter Andrew Dewar. It contains everything you need to fold the figures from famous Biblical stories. A full-color, 64-page booklet provides detailed, step-by-step folding instructions for each figure. Custom-designed papers are provided for each person, animal and object that comprise the 72 models.

Each project is introduced by a simple retelling of the biblical story that inspires it, followed by an explanation of the significance of each accompanying origami figure.

The finished pieces can be used to reenact these timeless stories, or to create inspiring dioramas. These miniature reenactments will bring the sacred Bible stories alive for your family, your youth group or your Sunday school class.

Projects include:

• Adam and Eve

• Noah's Ark

• The Tower of Babel

• Jacob's Ladder

• Jonah and the Whale

• The Annunciation

• The First Christmas

• Easter

• The Good Shepherd
