Ogre headbands that are easy to make with everyday materials are items kids will love.

They’re a great idea for enjoying Setsubun and bean-throwing.

Cut a toilet paper roll and make a ring.

Cover it with your favorite origami paper, then round off the corners.

Use origami or colored construction paper to make and attach the horns, hair, and facial features.

Varying the number of horns, facial expressions, and face colors makes for a colorful and fun set of headbands.

Since they’re quick and easy to make, this is a perfect craft idea for young children.

A demon biting into an ehomaki

Setsubun Origami [Biting Ogre and Eho-maki] Origami Ogre & Eho-maki (Fortune Sushi Roll)

Ehomaki rolls are eaten to ward off misfortune and invite good fortune.

This lucky charm comes with a unique idea: an ogre—considered a symbol of evil spirits during Setsubun and driven away with beans—takes a big bite! Make it by dividing it into parts for the head, fangs, body, and the ehomaki, then assemble them later into a single design.

Creating it in the original size might be challenging, so try using larger origami paper.

Once finished, it can also be used as a wall decoration, instantly bringing a festive Setsubun atmosphere to the space.

Ehomaki (lucky direction sushi roll)

[February Craft] How to Make Ehomaki (Toilet Paper Roll, Origami) [Easy Handmade] Sushi Roll • Setsubun

Let’s make an Ehomaki using a toilet paper roll core.

The main materials are a toilet paper core, origami paper, tissues, rubber bands, and tape.

First, attach black origami paper to the side of the core to resemble seaweed.

Next, cut the origami paper for the fillings into 7.5 cm × 15 cm pieces.

Fold the cut paper in half to make a strip, roll it up tightly from the end, and glue it.

Once all the fillings are rolled, bundle them together and secure with a rubber band, wrap them with tissue, and fix them inside the core.

You’ll need the same on the other side as well, so please make two sets of fillings.

Setsubun Oni Handprint Art

Handprint Art: How to Make a Setsubun Oni | Petapeta-art handprint art to capture your baby’s “now”

Let’s make a Setsubun craft using handprint art to capture your child’s growth! First, stamp an upside-down handprint on the backing paper to represent the ogre’s body.

Next, stamp a footprint slightly overlapping the thumb area; this will represent the kanabō (spiked club).

For the ogre’s head, imagine a circle and create it with finger stamps.

Once the ink is dry, glue on the ogre’s hair and shorts made from chiyogami paper, then draw the face, horns, and the club’s pattern with a pen to finish! Decorating the blank areas of the backing paper would also look lovely.

ogre mask

Oni Mask Setsubun Craft [Preschool Craft Made by Children] BABYJOB

Here’s a craft idea for making an oni using paper plates and yarn.

If adults prepare the face and horn parts in advance, even small children can enjoy it.

First, paint the paper plate with your favorite paints.

Since it will be the oni’s face, red or blue are classics.

Once the paint dries, glue horns and yarn at the top to represent the hair.

Finally, attach the face parts and it’s done! It’s also fun to create the face with crayon resist art.

Let the children freely place each part on purpose, so they can fully express their individuality.

a one-horned ogre

Recommended for Setsubun crafts! Let’s make an oni (demon) face with origami.

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

Open it back up, then fold the two left edges in to meet the crease.

Once you’ve done that, rotate the paper so the folded left side is at the bottom, and flip it over.

Next, fold the top corner down about 2 cm, then fold it back up so the tip aligns with the base of the triangle you just made.

This will be the oni’s hair.

Flip the paper over again, fold the bottom corner up to create the horns on the head.

Then fold the left and right corners inward so they line up with the sides of the part you folded up, and fold the bottom corner as well to shape the face.

Your oni is complete!
