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.

In November, when the autumn colors are at their most beautiful, let’s try folding a maple leaf.

Turn it over again, open the two pocket-like sections, and shape it into a diamond.

Fold up both of the long, thin triangles, spread the small triangles that formed inside to both sides, then fold one of the long triangles downward and trim the corners as needed to neaten the shape—and you’re done.

Make lots of them and create a maple-leaf scenery inside your room!

How to fold a cute rabbit

Easy! How to fold an origami bunny | Moon-viewing craft for ages 2 and up — Origami Bunny

Here’s an idea for making a rabbit with origami.

Since the head and body are made separately, please prepare two sheets of origami paper.

We’ll start with the head: first, fold the paper into a triangle twice.

Next, squash the pocket to form a square, then fold the top corners on both the front and back down to meet the bottom corner.

Fold both sides of the top point in toward the center line to make the rabbit’s ears.

Fold one ear diagonally, then fold the bottom corner inward to finish the head.

For the body, fold the paper into a triangle to make a crease, then fold all four edges to meet that crease.

Fold both side corners inward, and on one side, make a single step fold over that.

Fold the whole piece in half along the crease to finish.

Attach the head to the body to complete your rabbit.
