[For Kids] Easy Origami Ideas for November

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!

pine cone

[Autumn Origami] Pine Cone Folding Tutorial with Voice Commentary ☆ How to Make Pine Cones with Paper / Tatsukuri

Pine cones come in all shapes and sizes, from large to small.

This origami pine cone is made by creating three parts and gluing them together to form a single pine cone.

The key point is to pinch the left and right creases and fold them toward the center—this determines the base shape of the pine cone.

For Parts 1, 2, and 3, the steps are the same: fold the three top corners, refine the shape, and be sure to make firm creases so the pine cone looks three-dimensional.

Once it’s finished, try adding eyes, a mouth, or other decorations to customize it.

[Origami] Easy and Cute Cosmos Folding Method / Autumn Origami Flower — Origami Cosmos

Cosmos flowers are known for their slender, delicate petal shapes.

This origami cosmos is easy enough for children to fold and highly recommended.

For the petals, fold into a triangle, then flip it over partway and fold along the lines; the key is to tuck the paper toward the center.

Make sure to crease firmly so the petal shapes come out nicely.

After making the base and the central part, glue them together to finish.

It’s also a great idea to use various colors of origami paper to create colorful cosmos flowers.

deer

[1 sheet of origami] How to fold a deer (Origami Deer).

Let me introduce an origami deer you can make from a single sheet of paper! First, flip the paper over and fold it into a square base.

Fold the top layer down toward the bottom corner.

Fold that crease back up to the middle edge.

Open it, then fold to the first crease, and fold once more.

Open it again, then fold down from the top to the crease twice.

Fold the tip slightly.

Fold both side edges inward to meet the edge of the section you just folded.

Next, turn it sideways, lift the top layer, and fold the lower-left edge to align with the center.

Flip the top section up, lift one layer at the bottom, align it to the top edge, fold, and return it.

Turn it over, change the orientation, and fold it as you would for a crane.

Lift one layer and make a single cut with scissors up to the edge.

Continue lifting layers and cutting in the same way, then fold to form the deer’s body.

Finish by shaping the top part into the head.

Draw a face with a pen to make it extra cute!
