Origami Squirrel You Can Fold from a Single Sheet!

Origami “Squirrel” Easy How-To [Autumn Craft Activity]

Here’s an idea for making a squirrel out of origami, perfect for autumn crafts.

First, fold the paper into a triangle.

Then, as if making a paper cup, fold both corners inward so they cross over and overlap.

Turn the paper upside down, and fold the corners you just made upward to create the squirrel’s ears.

Flip the paper over, and fold up one layer of the bottom corner into a triangle.

Fold a small part of that corner to the back to represent the squirrel’s white belly.

Flip the paper over again, fold up the remaining bottom corner, then make a small cut near the left edge and shape it into the tail.

Draw the body pattern and face with a pen to finish.

Easy! How to fold an apple

[Preschool Craft] Easy Origami Apple: How to Make It♪

Let’s make a winter treat—an apple—using two sheets of origami paper.

You’ll need a standard 15 cm red sheet for the fruit and a small orange sheet for the stem.

First, we’ll make the fruit.

Place the red paper with the white side facing up, fold it in half top to bottom, and crease well.

Fold the bottom edge up to the crease.

Fold the top left and right corners in toward the center.

Rotate the paper 180 degrees, then fold three corners inward into triangles.

Next, fold the two new side corners inward the same way.

Cut a small slit at the center of the top edge, open the cut outward and crease—this completes the fruit.

For the stem, fold the orange paper into a rectangle, then roll it tightly from a corner to make a thin strip.

Attach it into the slit you made, and your origami apple is finished.

Autumn origami acorn

[Origami] Easy Acorn Folding Method Even 3-Year-Olds Can Do – Autumn Origami – How Kids Can Make It – Origami for September, October, and November [Origami]

Let’s make an acorn with a hat using two sheets of origami paper.

Use a 15 × 7.5 cm sheet for the acorn and a 7.5 cm square for the hat.

First, we’ll make the acorn.

Fold the paper in half to make a square, then fold the top, bottom, and left corners toward the center—done.

Next, we’ll make the hat.

Fold the paper into a triangle twice to create creases.

Fold the bottom corner up to the center, then fold up along the crease to form a triangle.

Turn the paper over and fold the top corner down so it sticks out slightly below the base of the triangle.

Tuck both corners inward, then place it over the acorn you just made.

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.

Fun in autumn! Roasted sweet potato origami

[Origami] Roasted Sweet Potato

After folding the origami into a square and creasing it, open it up and place the paper so the crease runs horizontally.

Fold the top and bottom edges to the crease, then fold all four corners inward to complete the roasted sweet potato.

This alone gives plenty of autumn vibes, but let’s add one more touch.

Tear the roasted sweet potato you made in half, and insert a yellow “roasted sweet potato” made the same way inside.

Now you’ve made a half-eaten roasted sweet potato.

It also works as a wall decoration and seems like an idea that could contribute to children’s food education.

Mushroom House

Someone is coming out of the window! Here’s an idea for a mushroom house.

What you’ll need: polka-dot origami paper, pale orange or light brown origami paper, half-size cut origami sheets, your favorite animals or people made from origami, and glue.

Use the polka-dot paper to make the mushroom roof, and finish it off in the shape of a cute house with the pale orange or light brown paper.

If you decorate it with small animals or figures, it will open up a storybook-like world.

Cutting and pasting origami will be a great opportunity to nurture creativity!

Autumn animals made with paper cups

This is a craft project where you make animals by sticking torn origami paper onto a paper cup.

Apply glue to the side of the paper cup, then attach torn pieces of origami or tissue paper.

Using origami gives a crisp look, while tissue paper creates a soft, fluffy texture.

Finally, attach parts made from construction paper—such as ears, tail, eyes, and mouth—to the cup to finish.

Displaying them with autumn motifs like colorful leaves or acorns will make the craft feel even more autumnal.
