Even a preschooler can easily make this paper bird. The main thing is that you need to carefully read the step-by-step photos and carry out all the steps carefully and consistently.
To work, you will need a square sheet of colored single-sided paper. Let the child decide for himself what color his bird will be, then it will become much more interesting for him to collect it.
How to fold a bird out of paper

Turn it over with the colored side down and place it as shown in the photo. Draw a vertical line that divides the square diagonally in half.
Fold the sheet over it and iron the fold. He should be on the right.
Divide the width of the triangle into 4 equal parts by making small marks. Draw a vertical line through the first point from the fold.
Fold the top layer of paper along this line to the right. Iron the fold.
Draw a horizontal line dividing the figure in half.
Fold the workpiece over it.
Bend one of the movable triangles upward slightly at an angle to the left. Its corner should protrude 2.5-3 cm above the figure. This is the wing of a bird.
Bend the second triangle behind the craft, slightly changing the angle of inclination.
To make the bird's head, bend the right corner crafts downwards, as shown in the photo.
