Instructions:
Print the Templates
Print the hedgehog body on a sheet of double-sided colored paper. You can choose any color you like!
Print the additional details (mushrooms, leaves, apples, and eye) on regular white paper.
Color the Details
Use colored pencils, markers, or paints to color the mushrooms, leaves, and apples. Get creative with fall colors!
Cut Out All the Pieces
Carefully cut out the hedgehog body, mushrooms, leaves, apples, and the eye.
Fold the Hedgehog’s Body
Fold the hedgehog’s body accordion-style (like a fan), starting from the tail end and stopping at the head.
Shape the Body
Once folded, bend the accordion in half and glue it in the middle to create a fan shape. This forms the hedgehog’s spiky back.
Add the Eye
Glue the eye onto the hedgehog’s face to bring it to life!
Decorate with Forest Treasures
Now it’s time to decorate! Glue the mushrooms, leaves, and apples onto the hedgehog’s back — as if it’s carrying them through the forest.

This hedgehog paper craft is not only fun but also great for developing fine motor skills and creativity. It’s easy enough for young children to complete with a bit of help, and the final result is sure to make them proud.
