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.

fox

Easy-to-fold origami parent-and-child fox

This is a simple origami fox that even preschoolers can make.

Use two sheets of origami paper to create the fox’s face and body.

The face is finished with just three folds, and the body with two, so it’s easy to try even for beginners who can’t fold precisely yet.

Once the face and body are done, glue them together and draw the face to complete it! It’s simple yet very cute, so we recommend making a parent-and-child fox set using large and small sheets of origami.

Perfect for autumn wall displays and craft time.
