Halloween origami that captivates 2-year-olds! A fun collection of ideas to make together with your child (1–10)
Pumpkin gift bag
This is a Halloween gift bag you can fill with treats like candy and chocolate.
Why not make an item that’s perfect for saying “Trick or treat!” on Halloween or for giving as a gift to children? Take a sheet of origami paper, fold about one-third of it vertically, apply double-sided tape, and fold so the edges overlap.
Next, fold up about 3 cm from the bottom, then fold so the left and right sides come to the inside.
Fold the top and bottom corners toward the center, secure with tape, and your bag is complete.
Try drawing pumpkins or ghosts to match the color of your origami paper.
bat
Here’s an origami bat that’s perfect for Halloween events at nurseries and kindergartens.
Display it together with pumpkins and ghosts to create a festive Halloween atmosphere.
Prepare black origami paper, then first fold it in half so a vertical crease is formed.
After making the crease, open the paper horizontally and fold it in half again.
Next, fold the paper back until the corner sticks out slightly, then fold the left and right corners toward the center corner.
Open the folded left and right sections to set the creases, then flip the piece over and fold back the top corner to finish.
Adding eye pieces is also a cute crafting idea.
black cat
Making a black cat out of origami is a lot of fun.
With simple folding steps, you can complete the face and body, so even small children can join in.
By using the edges to make ears and a tail, you’ll create a black cat full of originality.
If you add eyes, a nose, and whiskers with a marker, it will look even more lively.
The finished black cat can be displayed on fences or walls at daycare or kindergarten, or enjoyed at home as interior decor.
It’s perfect for boosting the Halloween atmosphere.
Working together with parents or guardians can also deepen communication and make for a fulfilling time.

Halloween garland
How about making a garland with the kids—perfect for Halloween party decorations? You can create the garland pieces by folding origami paper just four times, so it’s ideal even for two-year-olds! Draw Halloween motifs like ghosts, jack-o’-lanterns, and black cats to set the mood.
If drawing’s tricky, stickers work just fine.
Attach a string at the end and your garland is complete! Two-year-olds love adding new “I can do it!” moments.
Enjoy creating freely while soaking in the seasonal vibes.
A ghost that breaks in five tries
Even spooky-looking ghosts turn cute when you make them with origami! Here’s a ghost you can create with just five folds.
It’s perfect for two-year-olds who are getting a bit used to origami, so why not give it a try? It might be tricky for a two-year-old to fold neatly, so it’s fine for an adult to help.
At the end, add eyes, a mouth, and hands to give it a personal touch.
It’s also great for Halloween wall decorations or hanging ornaments, so be sure to use it!
Ghosts and pumpkins
Origami ideas featuring ghosts and pumpkins, classic Halloween characters.
The two pieces share the same steps up to a certain point, so they’re great for childcare settings where you make them together with kids.
First, fold the origami paper left and right to create crease lines.
Open the paper, then fold the bottom up to meet the center, and fold in the left and right sides as well.
Next, open the inner bottom section as you fold, then fold it back toward the center.
While opening the top part, fold it down, and finish by folding the paper on the back—done! With just one more fold of the left and right sections, you can also turn it into a coffin.
Ghost origami
Let’s make some Halloween-style origami ghosts.
There are steps where you open out folds and squash-fold, so it might be a bit tricky until you get used to it.
But once you learn the method, kids will definitely want to fold them enthusiastically! It’s also a great idea to make lots of ghosts to decorate the classroom.
Another option is to feature the children’s ghosts on a wall display.
The expressions you draw can create ghosts with all sorts of personalities, so be sure to try folding them together with the kids.
