The article, based on the results of the personal practical experience of the author working with seriously ill children who are in hospitals and deprived of the opportunity to study in ordinary schools, reveals the effectiveness of using such a means of art pedagogy as origami. Classes on the design of various paper figures have a positive effect on child patients: they reduce the state of fear and anxiety, distract from pain, increase self-confidence, and contribute to the establishment of friendships. In the process of folding origami, in addition to the pleasure of getting a new model, children improve their knowledge in the field of geometry, develop spatial abilities, learn new concepts and properties.
