Simple Origami Ideas to Enjoy in Autumn (For 4-Year-Olds)

One-sheet fold! Autumn tree

[Easy Origami] How to fold an autumn tree from a single sheet — Trees absorb CO₂ from the air and turn it into organic matter | Easy Origami: How to make a cute tree, paper folding tree

Let’s try making a freestanding autumn tree.

We’ll begin with a series of crease-making steps.

Since you’ll be folding along these creases later, please proceed carefully.

Note that there are steps where you only make creases on certain sections without folding everything.

Once the creases are in place, the trunk and the base of the leaves come together in an instant.

The part where you create the branches is a bit tricky, but adding them makes a noticeable difference in the final result, so give it your best.

For the trunk, flatten the pocketed section, and finish by forming a small triangle at the end.

Two kinds of acorns

[Autumn Origami] How to fold an acorn with audio instructions ☆ Origami: How to fold an acorn – September autumn decoration

Here’s an idea for making an acorn from a single sheet of origami paper.

The initial step of creating the first creases is important, so work carefully.

Basically, you’ll be folding straight along the creases, but there’s a step where you tuck the corners into the pocket formed by the folds—be careful not to mix up the position for that part.

Because the acorn and its cupule are formed from one sheet, the paper will gradually become stiff and harder to fold as you progress.

The final mountain-valley (accordion) folds at the top and bottom will be especially tough, so press firmly with your fingers as you fold.

How to fold a 3D persimmon that even 3-year-olds can make!

[Origami] Persimmon 3D Box – Easy Tutorial – Autumn Origami That Kids Can Make From Age 3 – Child-Friendly Instructions – September/October/November Origami [Origami]

Let’s make this idea using double-sided origami paper in orange and green.

The steps up to opening the paper into a diamond—folding the paper into a triangle twice, squashing it into a square, and opening it—are the same as for a crane.

From there, fold the diamond by layering its flaps, then fold the corner that will become the center of the model inward to create a crease.

Fold the bottom corner up to meet that crease, and then, imagining you’re forming a box, repeat the same folds for the remaining three sides.

Unfold the corners you folded down once, make a slit along the horizontal crease, fold it back to the reverse side, and switch the color to green.

This will be the stem.

The center portion will be the fruit, so shape it so it looks plump.

Easy and cute Halloween ghost

[Origami] Halloween Ghost – Easy and Cute Folding Method | Autumn Origami for Ages 3+ | Kid-Friendly Instructions | October Origami [Origami]

After folding the paper in half into a triangle twice to make creases, open it and place the origami so the creases form a cross.

Fold the bottom corner up to the center to make a crease, then fold the top corner down to align with that crease.

Fold the left and right corners to the center line to crease them, then unfold.

Make step folds so the creases you just made overlap with the center line, open the pocketed parts, and squash-fold them into triangles.

These will be the ghost’s hands.

Fold both top corners into small triangles to round the ghost’s head, then fold the left and right edges of the bottom corner to the center line to form the tail.

Turn the paper over, fold both hands inward, and fold the tail up at an angle.

It’s complete.

An easy way to fold fallen leaves (origami)

[Origami] Fallen Leaf – Easy Folding Method, 3D Crafting – Autumn Origami Kids Can Make from Age 3 – Origami for September, October, and November [Origami]

Fold the paper into a triangle with the colored side on the inside.

Next, fold the base of the triangle back diagonally, leaving about 2 cm from the edge.

Then place it so the 90-degree corner is at the lower right, and fold so that the tip points downward.

From there, continue folding in an accordion (zigzag) manner so that each fold overlaps the one you just made.

When you open up the part you’ve been folding at the end, you’ll have a fallen leaf with veins expressed by the crease lines! Using various colors of origami paper—brown, orange, yellow, and so on—might make it feel like you’re enjoying autumn leaf viewing.

Easy! Halloween Pumpkin

[Origami] Halloween Pumpkin [Easy, for ages 3 and up] (Halloween origami)

Fold the origami paper twice to make a small square.

Flatten both of the pocket sections formed by the folds into triangles, then fold the left and right edges of one of the triangles toward the center line.

Turn the paper over and fold up the part sticking out at the bottom to hide it as a triangle.

Next, fold the left and right corners of the other triangle toward the center line, then tuck the two corners created by the folds slightly inward.

Finally, fold the top corner downward, then fold it back up a little so the tip sticks out slightly, and your pumpkin is complete.

Cute for moon-viewing too! A rabbit face

[Animal Origami] Easy Rabbit Face Folding Tutorial with Voice Commentary ☆ Origami Rabbit Tutorial / For Kids / Tatsukuri

First, with the colored side facing out, fold along the diagonal to make a triangle.

Then crease by folding so that the left and right tips of the triangle meet.

Next, fold so that the 90-degree corner overlaps the center of the base, and then fold the left and right corners along the creases to form an overall diamond shape.

Fold the left and right corners to the center, and make a small fold in the bottom corner.

Finally, fold the top corner down to meet the left and right corners, and you’re done.

When you turn it over, it will be shaped like a rabbit’s face, so draw the face with a marker to finish.

The steps aren’t complicated, but there are quite a few folds, so take your time and give it a patient try.
