Just wrap it! Cozy Pumpkin #StayAtHomeFun #AtHomeTime #Handmade #EasyCraft #DIYToy #KidsCraft #PreschoolIdeas

Make it with yarn! Here’s how to create a 3D pumpkin.

You’ll need orange yarn, a toilet paper roll, scissors, and a pipe cleaner.

Wrap the yarn around the toilet paper roll until it’s the size you like.

Then carefully slide the yarn off the roll and tie the cut ends tightly.

Shape it into a round form and attach the pipe cleaner as the stem, and you’re done! They look adorable displayed together or made into a garland.

Be sure to try making some for Halloween!

3D pumpkin

Origami [Halloween Pumpkin] Let’s fold a simple, 3D Jack-o’-Lantern ♡

As an ambitious origami project, let’s make a 3D pumpkin using six sheets of origami paper! Using the paper balloon folding method, create six identical pieces.

There are a few somewhat intricate steps, but as you repeat the same folds, you’ll get the hang of it.

Once you’ve made six paper balloons, use double-sided tape to attach them together, pressing the insides to shape them into a pumpkin.

Finish by making the pumpkin’s vine from a small piece of green origami paper and attaching it.

paper balloon pumpkin

[Origami] Halloween Monster Balloon 🎃 Halloween Monster Origami

This is a paper-balloon pumpkin that kids can move with their fingertips or use as a garland decoration.

Fold the origami paper twice toward the center, then open it from the inside and flatten into a triangle.

Fold the triangle’s corners toward the center, and fold the top and the left and right flaps.

Here’s the key point: tuck the top corner into the holes on the left and right, then crease.

Flip it over and repeat the same folds on the back.

Open the bottom section and draw your illustration.

Add the pumpkin stem piece at the top to complete your pumpkin paper balloon! Why not make this three-dimensional pumpkin with your three-year-olds and enjoy the results together?

A three-dimensional pumpkin like a paper balloon

Halloween Origami: Easy-to-Follow 3D Pumpkin Ghost Folding Instructions — Jack-o’-Lantern

By its nature, origami often ends up with angular shapes when finished.

That crisp look has its own charm, but it doesn’t capture the cuteness of rounded objects.

That’s why I recommend this 3D pumpkin, like a paper balloon.

While it does have some angular parts, it features many curved surfaces overall, giving it a unique form unlike other origami.

It requires slightly delicate technique, but with solid support from a parent, even children can make it—so please give it a try for reference.

Footprint Pumpkin Art

[Nursery/Kindergarten] 7 Halloween craft ideas using handprint and footprint art!

If you want to nurture your child’s imagination, I recommend pumpkin art using footprints.

This involves putting paint on the foot and using it to create a pumpkin.

Ask your child to share ideas on how to make a pumpkin with footprints.

Footprint art also has the benefit of recording growth.

It could be fun to make a pumpkin with footprints every year and compare them.

By the way, you can also make black cats with footprints.

Give that a try as well!
