Cool Halloween Origami For Kids

Khaleeka by Khaleeka

Welcome To The Creepy World Of Halloween Origami!

Clear off your table and find some paper!

These designs are sure to get your children into the Halloween mood! Because many of these designs were created with young children in mind, the rules of origami are not so strictly observed. Some minor cutting may be involved, or more than one sheet of paper used.

Raven folded and photographed by Pavel, created by Quentin Trollip.

Mummy

These mummies are super-simple to make. Even little children can make them with minimal help, so this makes a great group activity. Diagrams are here.

    Origami is such fun, and a sweet token to tuck into the giftwrap presentation for birthdays etc. I like making and adding a Crane bird origami for 'longevity'
