To make the jumping frog you can follow the instructions below:

Step Three:
Fold the paper in half sideways to make the rectangle!

After creating the triangles on both sides, this shape will be created!

Fold the left corner of the upper triangle in an upward direction so that it will meet the top edge!

Apply the same procedure on the upper right triangle corner and do the same for the bottom one to create this shape!

Step Ten:
Now again fold this folded triangle inwards!

Step Eleven:
Turn it back and fold the lower corner in an upward direction!

Step Twelve:
Fold the left and right sides towards the center!

Step Thirteen:
Fold this shape in half to create the body of a frog!
