A gentle, cheerful whale to build as a family
In the imaginary ocean of a child’s bedroom, a whale comes to life. Not an intimidating whale—no. A soft, smiling paper whale that your child assembles piece by piece. This kids whale 3D origami model turns a simple creative moment into a calm, rewarding marine adventure.
Designed for curious little hands, this papercraft invites children to cut, fold, glue… and most of all, feel proud of the final result. At the end, a large decorative whale appears, perfect for personalising a shelf or play corner.
A model designed especially for children
The shapes are easy to read, and the assembly is gradual and reassuring. Even without prior experience, children can progress confidently. They develop fine motor skills, focus and patience—without ever feeling like they are “working”.
- Final dimensions: height 200 mm, width 394 mm, depth 338 mm
- Total number of pages: 13 sheets
Colour play and visual appeal
The whale is built using two tones for a soft, friendly contrast:
- White: 5 pages
- Blue: 8 pages
This colour choice enhances the charm of the model and brings the character to life as soon as it is finished.
