How to fold an origami rocket

A kite with its long point up makes the body, its wide corners make the fins, and the plain tip at the bottom becomes the flame.

You need: 1 square sheet, any size. Easy, 3 steps, about 3 minutes.

Steps

  1. Crease the diagonal. Fold the left corner to the right corner, crease, and unfold.
  2. Make a tall kite. Fold the two upper edges in to lie along the centre crease.
  3. Shorten the flame. Fold the bottom point up behind a little.

3, 2, 1… lift-off!

Draw a round window in the middle of the body.
