Origami

Origami is an ancient oriental art and examples may have been brought to this country thru trade. Origami can recycle paper in a fun way. Norwich had the first paper mill in CT. Norwich harbour was home to rowboats, sailboats, steamboats, freighters and catamarans. Why not combine the two! You'll find the directions for making several different kinds of origami boats (and more) below.
