Autumn wall display! Mushrooms and bagworms

[Autumn Wall Decorations] A Preschool Teacher Explains Mushrooms and Bagworms! (For Ages 3–5)

This is a wall decoration of mushrooms and bagworms that’s fun to stick on with glue.

First, make the parts.

Using construction paper in your favorite colors, cut out mushrooms in various shapes.

If you’re working with small children, please cut them in advance.

After cutting slits in the mushrooms, cut separate pieces of construction paper to serve as the stems.

Next, make the bagworms.

Have the children help with what they can, like drawing the eyes.

Now for the assembly.

Tear pieces of construction paper and glue them onto a background sheet to form the bagworm’s body.

Add the eyes and a little hat, too.

Finally, overlap the mushroom pieces at the slits and glue them so they become three-dimensional—that’s it, you’re done.

Autumn fruit! Persimmon with origami

[Preschool Crafts] Autumn Fruits: Persimmon with Origami | Origami Persimmon

Fold the orange origami paper in half twice to make a small square, crease well, and open it.

With the colored side facing up, fold the bottom edge up to meet the center crease.

On the white section you folded up, stick a piece of green origami paper of the same size.

Rotate the paper top-to-bottom, then flip it over, and fold the top left and right edges in to meet the vertical center line.

Flip the paper over and fold the top green triangle downward.

Flip the paper over again, open the green pocket into a triangle, and flatten it.

Fold the bottom left and right corners up to match the shape of the orange triangle above, then fold the left and right corners inward to round the shape like a persimmon.

Flip the paper over and fold down the two triangles sticking out at the top to finish.

Cut a sheet of origami paper into four equal strips (tanzaku) with scissors and separate them.

You’ll use only three, so set one aside for another craft.

Fold each of the three pieces in half vertically, then in half horizontally, in that order.

For just one of the three pieces, cut along the crease made by the horizontal fold to split it in two.

Take one of these halves, fold it so its length is halved, and round off the corner on the side where the layers are not connected.

Insert the remaining uncut piece between the others, and make a matching curved cut slightly above the first curve.

Cut the remaining two pieces in the same way, staple them together at the base, and then fan open the layers—the shape will look like a maple leaf.

Cute autumn-leaf origami

Here’s an idea for a maple leaf made by combining parts.

If you use 7.5 cm origami paper, you’ll get a nicely sized leaf.

First, fold the paper into a triangle to make a crease, then open it.

Place the paper so the crease runs horizontally, and fold the left edge in to meet the crease.

Next, fold the right corner toward the center and tuck it underneath the section you just folded.

With the isosceles triangle positioned upside down, fold the top edge from both sides to align with the center line.

Open the small triangles on the left and right into diamond shapes, and one part is complete.

Make five identical parts, stack and glue them together, then roll another piece of origami to make the stem and attach it.

Perfect for Halloween! Black Cat Origami

After folding the paper into a square using the zabuton fold, lift two of the corners gathered at the center to make the cat’s ears.

Fold the corners sticking out from the base of the ears inward, then tuck in the remaining corners to shape the face.

Flip the paper over, and your cute cat is complete! Draw the face and whiskers to finish it off.

The vibe changes depending on the color of the paper, so try making it in your favorite color.

If you pop a witch’s hat on it, it might feel even more Halloween-y!

Origami Squirrel Arrangement

I tweaked the cup fold ✨ and came up with a cute way to fold a squirrel 🌰❤️ProductionOrigamiOrigami folding instructionsOrigami playChildcareNursery teacher / Childcare worker#Nursery school#KindergartenKindergarten TeacherorigamiSquirrelNursery school teacher#Childcare CraftingAutumn Crafts#AtHomePlay

Fold the origami paper into a triangle, then fold both side corners diagonally upward toward the center to make a cup shape.

Flip the origami so top and bottom are reversed, and fold the corners you just made diagonally upward to form the squirrel’s ears, then turn the paper over.

Fold up a small portion of the top layer at the bottom corner, then roll-fold it further to create the white belly.

Cut into the remaining single layer and shape it into the tail.

Draw the face with a pen and add patterns on the body to finish.

Making some acorns to display alongside it will help create an even more autumnal feel.

Fold the origami paper in half into a square twice to make creases, then open it.

Fold the top left and right corners in to meet at the center.

Turn the paper over, fold the bottom edge up to match the horizontal crease, then turn it over again and fold the left and right sides in along the vertical creases.

Fold the top triangular part downward, then use that crease to make a pleat fold.

Squash the pleated sections from both sides into triangles to form the mushroom’s cap and stem.

Finally, tuck the remaining corners inward to round out the shape, and you’re done.

Drawing a face on it makes it even cuter.
