[For Kids] Simple Origami Ideas for November (1–10)
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?
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.
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.
maple leaves

Origami maple leaves are a lovely craft that lets you feel the beauty of autumn.
Using red, yellow, and orange origami paper, follow the steps to crease the paper and you’ll create delicate leaf shapes.
There’s a cutting step as well, so open the paper slowly and carefully to avoid tearing.
The finished maple leaves have a three-dimensional look, making them perfect for wall decorations or hanging ornaments! They’re great for parent–child craft time or activities in childcare settings.
They’re easy to make, so be sure to use them for your autumn projects.
sweet potato

When it comes to autumn flavors that kids love, sweet potatoes are probably at the top of the list.
As fall arrives, more and more children go out to dig them up.
So for a November origami project, here’s a sweet potato idea.
There are a few ways to fold a sweet potato, but this one looks like a roasted sweet potato with the inside showing.
You’ll need to paste yellow origami paper on the inside part after folding, but it looks delicious, so please give it a try.
Folding this might just make you crave a real roasted sweet potato!
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.
