Cute little fox

[Preschool Crafts] Autumn Craft! Cute Fox with Origami ♪ | Origami Fox

Let’s make a fox out of origami—a creature that often appears in fairy tales and folk stories set in autumn.

This time, we’ll use two sheets of origami paper.

First, fold the first sheet into a triangle.

Lift and fold only the top layer at the largest corner so that a small white part shows.

Turn it over, then fold both side corners up toward the center to form the ears.

Draw the eyes with a pen.

Next, fold the second sheet into a triangle, then fold it in half again, slightly offset.

Finally, glue the face piece from the first sheet to the body piece from the second sheet, and you’re done.

There aren’t many steps, and it’s very easy to make, so give it a try!

Cute squirrel

Easy origami squirrel folding! Cute enough for a 3-year-old to make♪

Let’s make an adorable squirrel using two sheets of origami paper.

First, fold the first sheet in half into a triangle and open it, then slightly fold the corners along the crease.

Flip it over and fold up the opposite corner as well.

Fold both side corners up toward the center.

Fold each of the two top corners inward toward the center to make the ears, and slightly fold the face and mouth areas inward to make them rounded—this completes the face.

Next, fold the second sheet in half into a triangle, open it, and fold both side corners inward to meet the center crease.

Fold the two bottom corners toward the center too.

Fold the whole piece in half, offset slightly, then tuck in the bottom corners to round the shape—this completes the body.

Finally, glue the face and body together and draw the squirrel’s face, and you’re done!

Easy! How to fold an origami bunny | Moon-viewing craft for ages 2 and up — Origami Bunny

Rabbits are often depicted together with moon viewing because the white patterns on the moon are said to resemble a rabbit pounding mochi.

Let’s make such a rabbit using two sheets of origami paper.

First, fold the first sheet into a triangle twice, then open the triangle and fold it into a square.

Next, fold down the top single layer in half.

Flip it over and repeat the same steps.

Fold both ears toward the center, then fold the tip of one ear outward to finish the face.

Now take the second sheet of origami, fold it into a triangle in half, and open it.

Fold all four edges inward along the crease to form a diamond shape.

Fold the bottom part up, then fold it slightly back down.

Fold the top part inward as well, then fold everything in half to complete the body.

Finally, glue the face and body together and draw the face to complete your rabbit!

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

Perfect for decorations! How to fold a dragonfly

[Autumn Origami] Easy☆How to Fold a Dragonfly [Origami] Simple Insect Origami

When it comes to symbols of autumn in Japan, dragonflies come to mind, don’t they? This time, let’s introduce a dragonfly made of origami that’s perfect for autumn crafts.

Prepare two sheets of origami paper, some eyes, and a felt-tip pen, and let’s get started.

For the dragonfly’s body, make creases vertically and horizontally, then fold toward the center line to form a square shape.

When puffing up and shaping parts of the origami, the key is to use your fingertips as you fold.

Next, prepare the remaining sheet of origami to make the wings.

For the sections where you open the paper outward while folding it down, take your time and fold carefully.

Glue the body and wings together, then adjust the body’s shape at the end.

Attach the eyes, and it’s complete.
