[For 4-year-olds] Enjoy February! A Collection of Craft Ideas

Oni of Setsubun

[Origami] Setsubun Oni-chan Squad [Easy Folding Method]

Here’s an idea for making an ogre using a single sheet of origami paper.

Start by folding the paper into a triangle, then fold both corners inward so they align neatly—up to this point, it’s the same steps as making a paper cup.

Once you’ve done that, flip the origami upside down, and fold the two corners you just made upward.

These will be the ogre’s horns.

They’ll be too thick as is, so reverse-fold the inner sides outward to make the horns thinner.

Next, fold up the bottom point into a triangle, then fold both corners of that triangle inward to finish.

Add a face with a pen, and use patterned washi tape to create the pants, and you’ll have a wonderful ogre.

Snow fairy! Adorable long-tailed tit (Shima-enaga)

[Easy Origami] How to Make a Long-Tailed Tit 💡 #Hokkaido #SnowSpirit #Bird #Birdie #bird #새 #鸟 #Winter #Animals #Cute #HowToFold #Origami #Paper #DIY

Why not try making the popular long-tailed tit as a “snow fairy” with origami? All you need is a single sheet of your favorite origami paper and a black pen, so preparation is super easy.

Fold by creasing and flipping the paper as you go: use the white front side to represent the body and the colored back side for the wings.

Finish by drawing the eyes and beak with a black pen to enjoy different expressions.

With few steps, it’s easy even for a 3-year-old, so it’s highly recommended.

After it’s done, you can show them to each other or line them up on the wall to create a cute atmosphere.

ogre’s iron club

[Setsubun Origami] Easy Oni's Club with One Sheet ✨ How to make a paper spiked club #dokkaebi #oni #club #bangmangi #Setsubun #howtofold #origami #paper #easy #diy

For this idea, use origami paper measuring 7.5 cm × 15 cm.

First, position the paper so the 15 cm sides are at the top and bottom.

Next, fold it in half by bringing the top and bottom edges together, crease well, and open it.

Then fold the top and bottom edges in to meet the center crease.

After that, fold the right edge over the left edge to fold the paper in half, and create a step by folding back a strip about 1 cm wide from the crease.

This step separates the club (kanabō) section from the handle section.

For the handle, fold the top and bottom of the right-side portion of the paper in toward the center crease, and squash the pulled corner into a triangle.

Finally, fold the four corners of the remaining club section into triangles to round them off, and you’re done.

Oni made with finger paint

Let’s enjoy the process of paints blending together and the cool, tactile feeling as we create! This is an idea I’d love children who think ogres are scary to try.

You will need drawing paper, paints in various colors, plastic wrap, crayons, scissors, and glue.

Using two to three colors of paint makes the color blending more fun.

Letting children choose their favorite paints might spark excitement and help them express their creativity.

If you use pastel-colored paints, it will result in a gentle, soft look—be sure to give it a try.

Let’s make and play! Here’s a fun idea you can use for Setsubun events, too.

It would be a waste to only make crafts for Setsubun—why not incorporate them into a game? In the video, we introduce a game where you launch a paper Ehomaki to hit oni targets made from toilet paper rolls and construction paper.

You can adjust the target designs and the way you play to suit different age groups.

This is a great idea for teachers planning Setsubun events!

Let’s create a project packed with personal touches! You’ll need construction paper oni parts, origami paper in your favorite colors, scissors, glue, thick cardstock, rubber bands, and a stapler.

The simple step of tearing origami paper for the oni’s hair and gluing it on is great even for infant classes, but since this is for a class of five-year-olds, it might be nice to set a theme of finishing their work with careful attention to detail.

They can have fun arranging the hair in rainbow colors or decorating with craft punches.

Give it a try and incorporate it into your activities!
