For 5-Year-Olds: Enjoy Autumn! Easy Origami Ideas

Super easy! Fox face

How to Fold Origami [Fox Face] / Easy Origami Folding How-to Video Series [ORIGAMing]

This is a way to fold a fox face in just five folds.

First, fold the paper in half along the diagonal to make a triangle.

Next, fold so that the two 45-degree corners meet, creating a crease.

Then, fold so that the 90-degree corner aligns with the point where the crease intersects the base.

Finally, fold each of the 45-degree corners upward, and you’re done.

Turn it face up and draw the fox’s face.

With no complicated steps and only a few folds, this is an easy origami project to try.

Origami of acorns and chestnuts

Origami “Acorn” [Preschool craft activity • classic • childcare origami]

After folding the origami into a triangle twice to make creases, open it up and fold the top corner down to meet the center.

Fold the top edge down to align with the horizontal crease, then fold it down once more along the crease and fold the entire paper into a triangle.

This folded section will become the acorn’s cupule (cap).

Turn the paper over, fold the left and right corners inward so they overlap at the center, then slightly fold in the five corners to refine the shape.

Flip it back to the front, and you’ll have a cute acorn.

This idea works best with double-sided origami paper.

Easy way to make grapes

[Origami] Easy Grape Craft! A Folding Method Even 3-Year-Olds Can Do

We’ll make this using sheets of origami paper cut in half.

First, fold the origami paper in half vertically, then fold all four corners in toward the crease.

Next, fold it in half so the fold is perpendicular to the first crease.

This will create two 90-degree corners; fold those corners inward toward the center to make creases.

Open it back up, then tuck along the creases to form a square.

Next, take the corner on the closed side of the square and make two small folds; when you open the square, it will look like two quadrilaterals connected together.

Finally, fold the corners to make an octagon, and you’re done.

Make four of these and glue them together to create a bunch of grapes.

Some steps may be a bit hard to understand, so please watch the video carefully as you work.

Since you’ll be making several of the same piece, the children will likely get better at it as they go!

Origami bat

October Origami — Bat

Fold the origami paper twice to make a small triangle, then make a slit under the top corner, parallel to the base.

Make the slit from the side opposite the fold, being careful not to cut it off.

The upper triangular section you slit will become the bat’s head, and the lower part will be the wings.

Open the paper back into the large triangle, and fold the slit section toward the central crease to form the head shape.

Fold the same parts back to create the bat’s distinctive ears.

Use a zigzag (mountain–valley) fold for the junction between the head and body.

Finally, fold the remaining wings several times to add creases and give it a three-dimensional finish, and you’re done.

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!

Also recommended for walls! Origami cosmos

[Easy Origami Cosmos] How to make it in 1 minute: Paper Craft, Autumn Wall Decorations (for nursery teachers and caregivers) How to Make a Cosmos Flower—Paper Craft Origami

Here’s an idea for making cosmos flowers with paper cutting.

Fold a piece of origami paper into a triangle three times to create crease lines, then unfold it back to the state of being folded once.

Fold the bottom edge on the right to line up with the leftmost crease, and fold the bottom edge on the left to line up with the center crease.

Fold the remaining right section along its crease, and fold again along the next remaining crease to stack the paper.

Draw petal lines and cut them out.

When you open it, you’ll have an 8-petal flower.

Slightly overlap the spaces between the petals by folding them, and place a yellow round sticker in the center.

Finally, curve the tips of the petals to give it a three-dimensional finish.

A ginkgo leaf you can make from a single sheet of origami paper

[Preschool Craft] A “Ginkgo” that can be easily made with a single sheet of origami

Let’s express the ginkgo leaves that color the autumn scenery vividly using origami.

First, fold the paper into a triangle to make a crease, then unfold it and place the paper so the crease runs horizontally.

Fold the two left edges toward the crease, then rotate and place the model so that the newly formed point faces downward.

Broadly speaking, the upper triangular part will be the ginkgo leaf, and the lower part will be the petiole (leaf stem).

From here, you’ll gradually shape it by adding fine creases, so make each fold carefully and press firmly with your fingers to set crisp crease lines.
