Cute squirrel

Easy origami squirrel folding! Cute enough for a 3-year-old to make♪

Let’s make an adorable squirrel using two sheets of origami paper.

First, fold the first sheet in half into a triangle and open it, then slightly fold the corners along the crease.

Flip it over and fold up the opposite corner as well.

Fold both side corners up toward the center.

Fold each of the two top corners inward toward the center to make the ears, and slightly fold the face and mouth areas inward to make them rounded—this completes the face.

Next, fold the second sheet in half into a triangle, open it, and fold both side corners inward to meet the center crease.

Fold the two bottom corners toward the center too.

Fold the whole piece in half, offset slightly, then tuck in the bottom corners to round the shape—this completes the body.

Finally, glue the face and body together and draw the squirrel’s face, and you’re done!

Acorn in origami

[Preschool Craft] Autumn Project! Acorns with Origami ♪ | Origami Cute Acorns

Acorns are one of the familiar parts of autumn nature for children—they find them among fallen leaves, collect lots of them, and use them for pretend play.

Let’s try expressing the autumn mood by making acorns with origami.

First, fold the origami paper in half into a square, then open it and fold the bottom edge up toward the crease.

Flip it over, fold it in half, and open it, then fold both sides in toward the crease.

Finally, fold in the four corners to resemble an acorn shape, and you’re done.

Make lots and decorate your room with them!

Perfect for autumn! How to fold a mushroom (origami)

[Preschool Crafts] Easy Origami Mushroom Tutorial♪

When it comes to autumn flavors, mushrooms are a classic! Let me show you how to make a mushroom using just one sheet of origami paper.

First, fold the paper in half into a rectangle, then fold it in half again to make a square.

Unfold it completely, then fold two corners toward the center.

Flip it over and fold the bottom half upward.

Flip it back, tuck the left and right sides inward, then fold the whole piece in half.

Fold down only the white section, then tuck the white part inside to finish.

For the mushroom cap, tuck in the corners to round the shape overall.

It might look cute if you draw some patterns on it, too!

three-dimensional bagworm

[Origami] Bagworm – Easy folding method, how to make a 3D version, autumn origami that kids as young as 3 can make, instructions children can follow, origami for September, October, and November [Origami]

Here’s an autumn-themed bagworm craft that captures the feeling of the season.

Prepare three sheets of origami paper and let’s get started.

For the bagworm’s face, fold one sheet into a triangle to make a crease.

Open it, then fold the corners toward the center line.

Fold again along the creases and flip it over.

Match the corners to shape the bagworm’s face.

For the “mino” (the bag/casing), the key is opening the mouth of the pouch.

If it’s difficult, have an adult help.

Make two of these in the same way, then glue them together to complete the bag/casing.

Finally, glue the casing and the body together to finish.

Draw a face to create your own cute, original bagworm.
