Acorn in origami

[Preschool Craft] Autumn Project! Acorns with Origami ♪ | Origami Cute Acorns

Acorns are one of the familiar parts of autumn nature for children—they find them among fallen leaves, collect lots of them, and use them for pretend play.

Let’s try expressing the autumn mood by making acorns with origami.

First, fold the origami paper in half into a square, then open it and fold the bottom edge up toward the crease.

Flip it over, fold it in half, and open it, then fold both sides in toward the crease.

Finally, fold in the four corners to resemble an acorn shape, and you’re done.

Make lots and decorate your room with them!

Flip the paper front and back as you make an accordion fold.

Trim the corners to create a rounded shape, fold it in half toward the center, and staple the bottom.

Origami Squirrel You Can Fold from a Single Sheet!

Origami “Squirrel” Easy How-To [Autumn Craft Activity]

Here’s an idea for making a squirrel out of origami, perfect for autumn crafts.

First, fold the paper into a triangle.

Then, as if making a paper cup, fold both corners inward so they cross over and overlap.

Turn the paper upside down, and fold the corners you just made upward to create the squirrel’s ears.

Flip the paper over, and fold up one layer of the bottom corner into a triangle.

Fold a small part of that corner to the back to represent the squirrel’s white belly.

Flip the paper over again, fold up the remaining bottom corner, then make a small cut near the left edge and shape it into the tail.

Draw the body pattern and face with a pen to finish.

Cute dragonfly origami

[Origami] Dragonfly - Cute How to Make It - Easy Origami - A Not-Difficult Folding Method Kids Can Do - Autumn Origami - Origami for September, October, and November [Origami]

Let’s make a red dragonfly out of origami, which you often see in November.

Prepare two sheets of origami paper and make the body and wings as separate parts.

For the body, fold the paper horizontally toward the center in half three times to shape it.

For the wings, make a crease by folding in half, then fold both sides toward the center line and round the corners by folding them in.

Finally, apply glue to the entire body piece, sandwich the wings in between, and press to attach—done! The steps are simple, so this is a recommended folding project for preschool-aged children.

Give it a try!

Cute little squirrel!

Little Squirrel 🐿️ #origami #paperfolding #paperart #papercraft #nurseryteacher #kidscraft #100yenstore #athomeplay

A squirrel you can make from a single sheet of origami—also great for November wall displays—is a perfect craft for preschoolers.

Fold the paper into a triangle, then fold up the left and right sides to form a cup shape.

After folding down the tip of the paper, create the squirrel’s belly.

For the tail, make horizontal snips into the flappy triangular part of the paper.

Be careful not to cut all the way through.

Draw the face to finish.

To give the tail a fluffy look, you might curl it with a ballpoint pen to add some movement.

Cute persimmons perfect for autumn

[Autumn Origami] Easy and Cute Persimmon Folding Method / Decoration, Food, Fruit — Origami Persimmon

A quintessential autumn fruit! Let me show you how to make a persimmon.

Prepare one 15 cm square of orange origami paper and one 7.5 cm square of green origami paper.

First, fold the top and bottom edges of the 15 cm paper to meet at the center to make a rectangle.

Rotate the paper 90 degrees to a vertical orientation, then fold it in half top to bottom to make a crease.

Next, fold the top and bottom toward that center crease again, but fold slightly short of the crease rather than exactly on it.

Make the folds so that the folded sections and the remaining central section are the same width.

Finally, fold all four corners inward to complete the fruit.

For the leaf, do a “zabuton” fold three times with the green paper.

On the third time, slightly fold the corners first, then fold toward the center.

Flip the paper over, open and flatten the four pouch-like sections, then fold the corners to finish.

Attach it to the fruit to complete your persimmon.

[Origami] Roasted Sweet Potato

Delicious roasted sweet potatoes are a snack that children love, aren’t they? Some preschools and kindergartens may have events like sweet potato digging to help kids get familiar with them.

First, fold the origami paper in half into a rectangle, then fold it in half again to make a square.

Unfold it once, then fold the left and right sides in toward the center.

Finally, fold each of the four corners to shape it, and you’re done! You can have fun with various arrangements, like expressing soil to make it look more like a sweet potato or hanging it from a vine.

It’s also nice to attach leaves with the children’s names written on them.
