[Childcare] Simple fall origami ideas

Autumn Origami Wreath

November Origami: Autumn Grove, Squirrel, and Acorn

Here’s an idea for a wreath you can make entirely from origami—from the base to all the parts.

You’ll be making three parts: the base, a squirrel, and a tree.

Since you’ll need several of each, try spreading the work over a few days.

For the base, fold four pieces the way you would when making a traditional “trick boat” (damashibune), creating parts where two boats overlap, then join the four pieces into a circle.

For the squirrel, first fold the left and right edges to meet at the center, then the top and bottom in the same way.

Next, fold up both corners of the top edge to make the ears, and cut along the crease at the lower right to form the tail.

For the tree, fold it four times so it approaches a triangular shape, and it’s done.

Take this chance to try creating a lovely autumn-themed piece!

Gradient origami paper from the 100-yen shop is also recommended! They look beautiful as hanging decorations. You can enjoy autumn foliage indoors for a long time. Please feel free to use this at senior facilities, daycare centers, kindergartens, event venues, and many other places.

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.

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.

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!

Let’s make a candy-shaped wrapping box that can hold a small gift.

First, crease the origami paper finely, then roll it into a tube and twist one end to shape it like a candy.

Make two identical pieces and overlap the tube sections to complete the wrapping box.

It may seem difficult, but as long as you carefully do the creasing steps, it comes together in no time—give it a try! If you use Halloween-colored origami and draw a ghost face, you’ll have a box perfect for Halloween.
