Here is the tutorial on how to make an origami box. Can you estimate its volume? What is its actual volume? Can you create four smaller boxes to fit inside the box? What is the volume of each of those boxes? Can you create a cover for the box? What perimeter does the origami paper need to have in order fit 'snuggly' on top of the box? 

Try out this cube building activity and practice your volume skills. (Remember: Volume = length x width x depth (or height))
