Getting ready

Age & adult help

Multiple origami folds, finger control and written prompts make this more demanding than a simple cut-out.

Demonstrate the folding and opening mechanism. An adult can pre-fold the game and read prompts for younger participants.

What you’ll need

Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons, scissors. A ruler can help make neat folds.

Time & preparation

One chatterbox, including colouring and folding. Play and teaching time are additional.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested. Spanish reading support may be needed. Website copy is in English.

Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.

Printing tips

The story behind the craft

Suggested Bible reading: Ephesians 6:10–18

The helmet design picks out salvation from Paul’s wider picture of spiritual armour. In the passage, truth, righteousness, peace, faith and God’s word belong alongside it, followed by a call to pray.

Main takeaway: The helmet is a reminder of salvation, not a promise that wearing a paper crown prevents harm.

While you fold and play

Open one flap at a time and read its prompt before moving on.

Read verse 17, then the surrounding armour passage. Ask why Paul uses protective equipment as a teaching picture and keep the activity separate from fighting games.

An adult can read a prompt and accept a spoken or drawn response. Confident readers can locate the relevant passage before explaining the prompt.

Questions to explore

  • What does Paul associate with the helmet?
  • What place does peace have in the same passage?
  • How is a reminder different from an object with protective powers?
