Cute Halloween bat

Fold the paper into a triangle by matching the top and bottom corners.
Crease well, then open it.
This time, overlap the left and right corners slightly out of alignment and fold.
Fold up the base, leaving a little of the top corner of the triangle visible, then fold that remaining corner down—this will be the bat’s head.
Fold the paper in half along the vertical center line, and fold in the left and right sides of the head, aligning edges to edges, creasing as you go to shape the bat’s wings.
Once all the creases are made, open the paper and make wavy cuts along the lower part of the wings to finish.
Perfect for Halloween! Halloween pumpkin

You can make an essential Halloween pumpkin with simple steps.
Fold the origami paper in half twice to make a square, then squash the pocketed sections to form two triangles.
Fold both side edges of the triangles toward the center line, flip the paper over, and fold the protruding corners inward.
Next, fold the left and right corners of the triangle toward the center line, then fold the newly created corners into small triangles to round the shape.
Finally, fold down the top corner, and fold it back so a little tip sticks up—your pumpkin is complete!

Here’s an introduction to chatty puppets: a ghost mummy and a ghost pumpkin.
First, fold construction paper and round off the four corners with scissors.
Use a felt-tip pen to draw a mummy pattern and add eyes.
Attach a red paper mouth, make the puppet’s handle, and in no time your chatty puppet is ready! Make the pumpkin ghost puppet the same way.
Be sure to try making them and play pretend conversations! Even kids who are scared of Halloween ghosts will feel at ease with such cute, talkative ghosts!
Pumpkin staff

Let’s make a pumpkin wand you can use as a toy or decoration! Open the pre-creased origami and fold each side toward the center.
After folding up the bottom, fold the top corners toward the center.
Fold in the left and right sides, then fold the top piece back down to complete the pumpkin body.
Have the children draw whatever pumpkin face they imagine to let their creativity shine.
Make a cute item by attaching it to a wand: slightly offset the paper when folding it in half, then roll it up tightly to form the stick and connect it to the pumpkin.
No scissors needed—an easy craft idea even for 3-year-olds.
Easy Ghost Origami Instructions

Here’s an origami ghost that’s perfect for autumn Halloween.
Prepare one sheet of origami paper and fold it into a triangle.
Then fold the left and right corners in toward the center line.
Tuck the loose, fluttery corner downwards.
Fold the whole piece toward the center line, then fold the tip downward to shape it into a ghost.
If you fold the bottom part of the ghost at an angle, it adds movement and makes a cute ghost.
Once it’s finished, draw a face and stick it on a Halloween bag or wand to enjoy!
[Halloween] AmiAmi Jack-o’-Lantern
These days, Halloween has firmly taken root as a classic autumn event.
Let’s make a jack-o’-lantern—the symbol of Halloween—using cardboard and yarn.
Cut the cardboard into a pumpkin shape and punch evenly spaced holes around the edge.
It’s a good idea to prepare up to this step in advance.
From here, the children can take over: have them thread orange yarn through the holes, crisscrossing diagonally and weaving as they like.
Finally, attach facial features made from black construction paper, and it’s finished.
