"Storygami comes in a lovely box that turns into awesome storage for papers and booklet. Moreover, the presence of a video and story immediately brings down anxiety as if it wasn't all about the beauty and precise folds because that is why kids shy away from origami." and#8212;andlt;bandgt;andlt;iandgt;Toys Are Toolsandlt;/bandgt;andlt;/iandgt;
