    I’d love to have this because I have recently turned $20 bills (rent we pay a friend every month) into stars and shirts. I show her my little creation and offer her a regular bill. She always takes the origami. But I’m learning from YouTube videos and there’s a lot of pausing and rewinding going on. Lol.

    This would be great to have some one on one time with my foster child. An awesome hands on skill for staying focused and paying attention.
