This is a fun jumping frog paper toy project I made for Craft magazine. To get your hands on this one you'll have to go to your local book store and pick up the newest issue of Craft #5.I'm super excited to have a project in such an awesome magazine.
The frog jumps via a paper clip strapped to his butt. Here he is in action.It's a great mag so go get a copy today! Also I'm running a bit behind on the paper toy of the month for November but will have it up this weekend.It just needs a little more tweaking. Thanks for your patience.

Awesome idea. I remember playing around with jumping paperclips in school. Great idea to use it in a papertoy. And good on ya for getting another publication. You're on a roll :)
Awesome! Were those gunshots in the background of you video?
Yeah my red neck neighbors were trying to shoot the paper frog for dinner!
I can't see the video and I have no idea how to attach the paper clip. A little help,please?
that is so cool.
how does the paperclip mechanism work?
or is that a trade secret ;)
Here is a video that shows how the paper clip jumps.
