The joy of spring and warm weather is here, and we have prepared another craft for your kids to make this season.
We are sure kids will enjoy coloring and creating our lovely spring agamograph.

Spring is a time of blooming flowers and unpredictable weather. By making this agamograph, the finished piece of art will capture exactly that atmosphere.
As nature slowly awakens, spring is the perfect time to awaken our inner child and do crafts together with our little ones.
You will be given the choice between two versions of the spring agamograph model.
The first version is ready to color and fold. With the second version, kids will need to color the entire image first, then cut out the agamograph pieces and glue them alternately onto another sheet of paper.
This time, the two alternating pictures will show a lovely frog sitting on a lotus leaf in the middle of a pond and a butterfly flying around the flower on a sunny day.
Making agamograph is easy and fun, so let your kids use their best crayons and color to their heart’s content to create their own unique craft.
Are you ready? Let’s do it!

Or follow the step-by-step instructions
Choose the version you want to color and print it out (sample at the end of the tutorial).
Color the alternating images with vibrant colors. If you want your product to really stand out, we recommend coloring the background with different colors (we used a pink and light blue background for our agamograph).
Use scissors to cut the pattern.
Mark alternating lines between images to make folding easier.
Begin folding your spring agamograph using the accordion folding technique.
Press each piece of the agamograph jigsaw firmly to create sharp creases.
Go to the last part of the agamograph pattern.
Your spring agamograph is complete! Tilt it to one side and you will see the frog…
…and looking at your work from another angle, an image of a large flower and a butterfly will appear.
Display the agamograph in a beautiful location in your home and enjoy the handiwork your child has created.
