[For Kids] Easy Origami Ideas for November

pear

[Origami] Pear – easy 3D folding method / how to make

Here’s an origami idea for an autumn fruit: a pear.

First, fold the paper in half, then fold it in half again.

Open the top layer to the right as if unfolding it back, and fold so that a slightly diagonal crease forms in the center.

Once done, turn it over and fold all four corners inward.

Turn it over again, and tuck the bottom protruding part inside to complete the fruit portion.

For the stem, use a piece that’s one-quarter the size of the paper used for the fruit.

Fold it several times into a stick shape, then attach it to the fruit.

Mushroom wreath

When you think of autumn, you think of mushrooms.

Making a mushroom-themed wreath that captures the season is a lovely way to feel fall.

This wreath has a simple folding method, so it’s easy even for children making a wreath for the first time.

The key is to create firm crease lines and fold it into an open triangle.

This part becomes the pocket area when the wreath pieces are combined and glued together, so it’s important.

Once you’ve made eight mushroom-shaped pieces, glue them together.

As you attach them, try to imagine how the patterns and colors will appear!
