Motifs for wall decorations that can be used year-round, recommended for nursery schools and kindergartens

Wall displays are essential for creating a welcoming environment in the facility.

Colorful and vibrant wall decorations instantly brighten the atmosphere and make it feel fun, sparking excitement in the children who spend time there.

That said, for busy teachers, frequently changing out these displays can be quite a task.

So this time, we’re sharing ideas for wall decorations you can use all year round.

We’ve gathered cute ideas featuring familiar, seasonless motifs that children love—like rainbows, stars, balloons, and animals.

Everything has a warm, pop style that makes you feel energized just by looking at it!

Try using them not only in classrooms, but also on the walls of gyms and hallways.

butterfly

Kimie Gangi’s spring wall display: super-easy tissue-paper “butterfly” with template included

Let’s make butterfly decorations that will make spring scenes even more vibrant! You can create them in various ways: cut origami or construction paper into butterfly shapes, or use tissue paper.

If you’re using tissue paper, stack several sheets, cut them into a butterfly shape, then fasten the center with a wire-lined string—at the same time, shape the antennae—and you’re done! They’re easy to make, so it’s a great idea to have each child currently enrolled make one.

You can gather them in one spot for display, or scatter and stick them in various places where graduating students will pass—both options look festive and lovely!

A mobile made with your favorite characters

Why not decorate the room with your children’s favorite characters? You can use characters from anime or games as materials, or—if characters aren’t allowed at your school—use animals or picture books they love instead! Once you’ve chosen the materials, print them out on a computer.

Also print one reversed copy so you can glue the front and back together.

Laminate the finished pieces and cut them out, then punch holes so you can attach strings.

Try decorating them like a mobile, using branches the children found in the yard or during outdoor activities.

Swaying gently in the pleasant spring breeze, they’ll look absolutely lovely.

Simple and cute! How to make a fabric garland! Fabric garland

Reusable and delightful! Here’s an idea for making a fabric garland.

You’ll need a 30 cm-long piece of fabric, yarn or jute twine, and scissors.

You can use leftover fabric from home or school, too! First, cut the fabric into long strips about 2 cm wide.

Next, take three of the cut strips and tie them onto the yarn or jute twine.

Finally, trim the length and snip off any loose threads, and you’re done.

This is a great idea when you want to make a cute garland with a natural vibe!

Origami and paper tape garlands

Introducing how to make a flower garland with origami or paper tape! | DIY How to make paper flower garland [Tukuru]
Origami and paper tape garlands

Here’s a softly three-dimensional flower garland.

The petals are made to pop out, and it’s super cute! Cut your favorite colored origami paper to make eight strips.

You’ll roll each of the eight strips, but be careful: if you glue the colored side to the back edge, it will just form a ring.

To make petals, glue the colored sides together where they meet.

That way, you’ll get adorable petal shapes! Make eight of these loops.

Then, cut a yellow circle from origami paper and glue the petals around it—that’s it! You can also have fun customizing it by changing the flower colors or making the yellow center a shape other than a circle.

Let’s stylishly decorate your windows and walls! Here are some ideas for spring flag garlands.

You’ll need origami or construction paper in your favorite colors and patterns, scissors, double-sided tape, twine, and a pencil.

First, fold the paper in half and sketch a triangle.

Next, keeping one side connected, cut along the other sides with scissors to make your pieces.

Finally, sandwich the twine between the paper and stick it down to finish! Even with the same method, changing the colors and patterns of the flags will give a different vibe, so it’s highly recommended.

It’s also lovely to have young children make spring motifs and decorate freely.
