[Childcare] August origami: simple and cute ideas

ghost

Origami: Easy Ghost

Speaking of summer, some schools may enjoy test-of-courage games or haunted houses using ghosts.

If the ghosts are cute, even children who scare easily can enjoy making them.

Ghosts made with origami involve slightly tricky diagonal folds, so one option is for the teacher to draw the fold lines.

Once the ghost shape is finished, have the children draw whatever expressions they like with pens.

What kind of ghosts do the children imagine? It’s an origami idea that makes you look forward to the finished result.

Let’s make a vibrant dahlia flower out of origami.

By delicately spreading and folding the petals, you’ll achieve a gorgeous finish that truly resembles a dahlia.

The key to folding a beautiful dahlia is to proceed carefully through each step, aligning the paper precisely as you fold.

The cute goldfish motif is an idea that makes you want to memorize the folds and make lots of them.

There are many steps to fold, but none are complicated, so it’s a great idea to tackle at a relaxed pace with children.

Up to a certain point, the folding method is the same as the kabuto helmet for Children’s Day, so kids familiar with origami will pick it up quickly.

The step where you use scissors to create the goldfish’s tail is striking even just to watch, and it will surely make them say, “I want to try!” It’s also fun to make a bunch and display them.

For the hot summer, a great recommendation for preschoolers is the “Munch-Munch Goldfish” origami.

Fold it, open it up, and move its mouth, and it looks just like a goldfish from a scooping game swimming around.

Use cool-colored origami paper for a fresh look that instantly boosts the summer vibe.

Once finished, kids can show their goldfish to friends or use them for pretend play—the possibilities are endless.

Many children get hooked and say, “I want to make another one!” fostering imagination while using their fingertips.

Display them on the wall to instantly create a nostalgic atmosphere.

It’s an origami idea full of seasonal charm—fun to fold, delightful to display, and memorable too.

We’ll begin with the penguin’s face.

Take one sheet of origami and fold one corner by about one third.

Flip it over, then fold the left, right, and bottom edges to form the shape of the penguin’s face.

For the body, fold the left and right sides of the origami diagonally, flip it over, then fold up the tip of the bottom section to finish.

Attach the face and body together, then add the beak, eyes, and facial expression to create your cute penguin.
