folding paper frog

An origami jumping frog is a traditional paper craft made from a square sheet of colored paper, usually green. Through a series of precise geometric folds—including the waterbomb base—the flat paper transforms into a three-dimensional, compact frog with four legs. Its most distinctive feature is a folded paper spring at the back, which acts as a mechanism. When a user gently presses down and slides their finger off the rear flap, the frog leaps forward or flips through the air, mimicking a real frog. #origami #frog #traditional #paper
