[For 3-year-olds] Perfect for September! A Collection of Craft Ideas to Enjoy Autumn Nature

September makes craft time with children even more fun.

Here, we’ll introduce craft ideas for three-year-olds using seasonal themes like moon-viewing, mushrooms, and cosmos flowers.

Let’s enjoy autumn crafts together using stamp daubers, origami, and everyday materials.

Through activities that highlight each child’s individuality, their interest in autumn’s nature will grow.

You’ll find plenty of tips everyone can enjoy together, so please use them as a reference.

Because we emphasize ideas that harness children’s free imagination to create works, in the main text we use the term “seisaku” (制作, creation/production) rather than “seisaku” (製作, craft-making).

A cute bunch of grapes that’s finished by crumpling tissue paper, putting it into a bag, and shaping it.

Change the color and you’ve got muscat grapes, too.

Cut grape leaves out of construction paper and stick them on.

Using tissue paper in the same color family with different shades will make it look even more vibrant.

Once it’s done, you can display it as is to enjoy an autumn mood, or stick it on the wall and have a grape-picking game.

Since the tissue paper gets packed into the bag, it doesn’t need to be perfectly crumpled.

Let the kids enjoy the feel of the tissue paper while they work on it.

Grapes stamp with a paper core featuring beautiful bleeding-style painting

Cut a toilet paper roll core in half, dip the cut edge in paint, and stamp to create the base with grape berries.

Next, use a wet brush to trace the edges of the berries you drew, then spread the paint inward to fill each berry.

Paint the stem with paint, and for the leaves, apply paint to real leaves and stamp them.

Once the paint is dry, cut the base into the shape of a bunch of grapes to finish.

If you use several colors for the initial berry paint, it will create a beautiful gradient when you spread it.

Grapes made with original stickers

Draw swirling lines with a purple water-based marker on aluminum foil, then rub a sheet of round stickers over the drawing.

Once the marker color has transferred to the stickers, cut the base construction paper into the shape of a bunch of grapes.

Stick on the round stickers to represent the grapes, add a stem and leaves made from other pieces of construction paper, and you’re done.

You can use store-bought stickers as-is, but adding this extra step lets you create original stickers, which I highly recommend.

Using several shades from the same color family for the markers will give the colors more depth and character.

Be sure to use the stickers after the ink has dried.

Cute grapes like candy

Cut out the grape base, stem, and leaves from construction paper.

Place a crumpled piece of paper in the center of a square-cut piece of tissue paper, wrap it, and twist to make a candy shape.

Make several candies, glue them onto the base, then attach the stem and leaves.

Twist a chenille stem to make a vine and insert it, and your grapes are complete.

The result looks delicious both as grapes and as candy.

If you shift the color scheme toward Halloween, it could make a wall decoration that captures both the flavors of autumn and the festive event.

3D grapes made from toilet paper

Glue purple origami paper onto a toilet paper roll and cut it into 1 cm-wide rings.

On the base, arrange and glue them in four tiers of 4, 3, 2, and 1.

Paint the insides with purple paint.

Attach a stem and leaves cut from construction paper, and your grape cluster is complete.

When attaching the origami paper to the toilet paper roll, be sure to apply glue across the entire sheet so it adheres firmly.

If it’s not well attached, it may peel off when you cut it.

Grapes are typically purple, but it’s fine for children to paint them in whatever color they imagine grapes to be.

Let’s make grapes using bubble wrap!

https://www.tiktok.com/@hoiku.labo/video/7401004741393730833

Here’s a craft idea for making grapes using bubble wrap.

Stick bubble wrap onto light purple construction paper and cut it into a grape shape.

Attach a stem made from brown construction paper, then use a permanent marker to color in each round bubble one by one.

There are many, so it can be a bit of work, but keep at it patiently.

Once you’re done coloring, your grapes are complete! Display them in your room to enjoy an autumn vibe.

When you’re finished using them as decorations, it could be fun to pop the bubble wrap and play with it.

Three-dimensional grapes with just one sheet!

Three-dimensional grapes with just one sheet!

Cut a sheet of construction paper into a rectangle and make two slits at each end.

On the left side, roll the middle section with slits toward the front and glue it, then roll the remaining sections toward the back and glue them.

On the right side, roll the middle section toward the back and glue it, then glue the remaining sections toward the front.

Fold the paper in half so the rolled parts form three rows, then cut along the fold with scissors to shape the stem.

Make leaves and vines out of origami paper and attach them to the grapes to finish! Try making them in various colors.
