grasshopper

Grasshoppers are insects you start seeing more often in the fall—and they’re one of kids’ favorites.
So if you’re enjoying origami in November, why not try making a grasshopper? The folding isn’t very difficult.
The steps are the same as making a crane up to a certain point, so if a child can make a crane, they can probably fold this on their own.
There’s no need to crease heavily or flip it over, so it’s simple—give it a try! Once you’ve folded it, you can draw a face, or make another one with slightly smaller paper to create a piggybacking grasshopper—also recommended!
maple leaves

Origami maple leaves are a lovely craft that lets you feel the beauty of autumn.
Using red, yellow, and orange origami paper, follow the steps to crease the paper and you’ll create delicate leaf shapes.
There’s a cutting step as well, so open the paper slowly and carefully to avoid tearing.
The finished maple leaves have a three-dimensional look, making them perfect for wall decorations or hanging ornaments! They’re great for parent–child craft time or activities in childcare settings.
They’re easy to make, so be sure to use them for your autumn projects.
sweet potato

When it comes to autumn flavors that kids love, sweet potatoes are probably at the top of the list.
As fall arrives, more and more children go out to dig them up.
So for a November origami project, here’s a sweet potato idea.
There are a few ways to fold a sweet potato, but this one looks like a roasted sweet potato with the inside showing.
You’ll need to paste yellow origami paper on the inside part after folding, but it looks delicious, so please give it a try.
Folding this might just make you crave a real roasted sweet potato!

Maple leaf made from a single sheet of origami paper

Try paper cutting! Here are ideas for making autumn leaves with a single sheet of origami paper.
How about creating a motif of cute, connected maple leaves to decorate your room? This time, two folding methods are introduced, so choose based on the age of the maker and how easy they are to do.
It’ll be fun to pick origami colors that match your image of maple leaves, such as red, orange, yellow, or brown.
When sketching with a pen, it’s also good to incorporate the distinctive features of maple leaves.
persimmon
Persimmons made with orange origami are full of autumn atmosphere.
If you make the calyx with green origami, it looks even more realistic.
Using your fingertips for the fine steps helps build concentration and creativity while having fun.
The finished persimmon origami is perfect as a fall decoration for your room.
Making them together as a parent and child will surely be a delightful time.
It’s also recommended for craft time in preschools and kindergartens.
The folding method is simple, so everyone can enjoy giving it a try.
mushroom

As autumn deepens, why not try making origami mushrooms? You can easily create mushrooms with clearly defined caps and stems.
Add decorations with colorful paper and pens to make your very own original mushrooms.
It’s perfect both as a craft to enjoy with children and as a lovely way to learn about autumn nature.
The mushrooms you make are great as fall decorations or accents for your room.
Enjoy a pleasant time and feel the changing seasons with these easy origami mushrooms.
ginkgo

In autumn, the yellow ginkgo leaves are so beautiful, aren’t they? Many kids probably feel like picking them up when they see them on the ground.
Here’s an idea for making ginkgo leaves with origami.
There’s a step at the beginning where you create crease lines, so be sure to press firmly with your hands to set the creases well.
Closing along the crease lines might be a bit tricky for children, so have an adult explain or help by holding down the center.
The key is to close one side at a time! It’s also a great idea for wall decorations.
