[For Kids] Simple Origami Ideas for November (1–10)
squirrel

We often picture squirrels holding acorns and other nuts, don’t we? They’re a perfect motif for November origami, too.
Here’s an idea for making a squirrel using two sheets of origami paper.
The squirrel’s big tail is nicely represented, and the result is very cute.
The folding steps are simple, so even children can give it a try.
Once it’s finished, draw the pattern and face.
If you fold acorns or autumn fruits with smaller sheets of origami and stick them to its chest, it will look even more autumnal.
acorn

As autumn deepens, why not enjoy making acorn origami? Using brown origami paper, you can create simple yet three-dimensional acorns.
They’re easy enough for children to fold, making them perfect for parent–child time or classroom activities.
If you make good use of the white side of the paper, they’ll look even more realistic.
The finished acorns can be used as autumn-themed wall decorations or room decor.
They bring a warm, cozy atmosphere, creating a lovely space.
How about feeling the arrival of autumn by folding origami together and having fun?
fox

This is an easy origami fox that even preschoolers can make.
Use two sheets of origami paper to create the fox’s face and body.
The face is finished with just three folds and the body with two, so it’s perfect even for beginners who can’t fold neatly yet—you can try it with confidence.
Once the face and body are done, glue them together and draw the face to finish! It’s simple yet very cute, so we also recommend making a parent-and-child fox using large and small sheets of paper.
Great for autumn wall decorations or craft-time activities.
mandarin orange

When we think of mikan (Japanese mandarins), we often picture winter, but there are also “extremely early mikan” that appear in November.
They’re a bit sour, but some people like that classic mikan flavor! Here’s an idea for making a mikan with a leaf from a single sheet of origami paper.
If you use origami with a white back, you’ll need to color the leaf part green with a pen, but if you use origami with a green back, you can just fold and you’re done! If you draw the mikan’s speckled pattern, it will look even more delicious.
owl

An owl gracefully dancing across the autumn night sky.
If you make one with origami, the kids will surely love it.
It might seem a bit difficult, but if you fold slowly and carefully, you’ll end up with a lovely owl.
Folding the feet and wings in detail makes it look lifelike, almost real.
Folding together with your child will let you feel the arrival of autumn and spend a warm, cozy time.
Finally, draw the eyes and wing patterns, and you’ll have a one-of-a-kind owl.
Apple

There are many fruits that are in season in autumn.
Among them, if we’re talking about a fruit popular with all age groups, wouldn’t it be apples? When you cut the peel into a bunny shape, it looks really cute.
Apples are also easy to make with origami, so give it a try.
Fold it into a large triangle, then just keep folding the corners inward to make it round—that’s all there is to it, so even kids can do it easily.
The key to making it cute is to make a small cut with scissors after folding to create the apple’s indentation.
Make a leaf and a stem with another sheet of origami and stick them on!
dragonfly

Origami dragonflies are a simple and fun idea! If you use colored construction paper, they’ll look beautifully realistic.
The key is to make the wings and body separately and assemble them at the end.
Adding small slits to the wings gives them a three-dimensional, lifelike look.
Once they’re finished, they make lovely autumn wall decorations.
Making them as a parent-child activity creates great memories, and they’re perfect for craft time at preschools and elementary schools.
They’re also recommended for developing children’s fine motor skills and creativity.
