[How to Fold Origami] Let’s Make a Cricket that Chirps in Autumn Using Origami

Speaking of autumn insects, the most typical ones are bell crickets and field crickets.

This time, we’re introducing how to fold an origami cricket.

The steps are the same as the grasshopper up to a certain point.

Since the tail and head end up shorter than a grasshopper’s, be sure to fold them firmly inward as you go.

The folding itself is simple, so even young children can try it.

In that case, have an adult demonstrate and fold together slowly, step by step.

Once finished, add cute eye stickers or draw the eyes with a pen to complete it.

It can stand on its own, so displaying it in your room will bring a touch of autumn.
