[April] Cute spring-themed classroom wall decoration ideas for early childhood education

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

I am an active nursery school teacher with 9 years of experience. After graduating from university, I worked at a daycare center. The time I spent happily with children—playing piano, singing songs, and doing finger-play—are priceless memories to me. Currently, while raising three children of my own, I work at an after-school day service, engaging with children and providing individualized developmental support. Drawing on my diverse experiences as a childcare worker and as a mother, I hope to express and convey my thoughts through writing.

Let’s create using everyday materials! Here are some cherry blossom craft ideas using straw stamps.

When you think of spring, many people probably imagine cherry blossoms.

This time, let’s make cherry blossoms using straws, a material familiar to children.

You will need construction paper, straws, scissors, paint, and crayons.

Draw the cherry tree trunk with crayons on the construction paper, then use cut straws to spread thinned paint.

It works well if you snip the tip of the straw with scissors to make five petals!

flower field

Recreate the scene of animals playing in a tulip field on your classroom wall! Combine animal motifs like bears and bunnies with spring symbols such as horsetails, butterflies, and ladybugs, along with tulips—the quintessential spring flower—to decorate the room with a fresh, springtime feel.

It would be lovely to line up tulip artworks that the children have decorated with finger stamps or string-pulling techniques, and surround them with spring motifs.

Let’s create a bright and cheerful wall display that makes you feel excited the moment you see it.

wriggly caterpillar

How about making a cute, three-dimensional wiggly caterpillar? You’ll need colored construction paper, thick paper/cardboard, tissue paper, small black round stickers, double-sided tape, and scissors.

Cut the thick paper into circles, then have the children crumple tissue paper in their favorite colors and stick it on.

Be sure to apply double-sided tape to the thick paper beforehand.

Once you’ve made as many segments as you like, add the caterpillar’s eyes with the black round stickers to finish.

Arrange the segments freely to create and display your caterpillar’s shape.

Crumpling the fluffy tissue paper offers both visual and tactile stimulation that’s great for kids.

[April] Cute spring-themed daycare wall decoration ideas (11–20)

balloon

How about making a wall decoration of hot air balloons floating softly in the sky? It would be nice to have a fun wall display that catches the eye of children who have just enrolled or moved up a grade and are feeling a bit nervous.

Let’s put some cute animals in the balloons, too.

It might be interesting to create the balloons in 3D using colored paper or paper cups.

You could also add letters to the balloons carrying the animals to spell out “Congratulations” to celebrate enrollment or moving up a grade!

rapeseed blossoms

Cute spring wall decoration: 'Rapeseed flowers'

rapeseed blossoms

Let’s make rapeseed blossoms with adorable clusters of tiny flowers! Here are some ideas for creating rapeseed flowers.

Instead of origami, using construction paper lets you create larger, more impressive pieces.

You’ll need colored construction paper, scissors, glue or tape, a stapler, and a ruler.

It’s also fun to play with shades of yellow and yellow-green—adjusting the hues can create a gentle feel or a bold, striking look.

Celebrate children’s enrollment and advancement with a dynamic wall display.

Teacher Hen and the Chick Preschoolers

A wall display featuring chickens as nursery or kindergarten teachers and chicks as the children attending can convey a cheerful school atmosphere.

Put an apron on the chicken to make it look like a teacher, and give the chicks uniform hats or little school bags.

A scene where many chick children gather around the teacher will likely help people easily imagine daily life at a daycare or kindergarten.

If you want to capture the fluffy feel of the chicks and chicken, it’s recommended to use fabric materials like felt for parts of their bodies.

Honey and Clover

Here’s a wall decoration idea featuring clovers that start blooming around March and ladybugs that herald the arrival of spring.

Most clovers you see are three-leafed, but it’s said that finding a four-leaf clover brings good luck.

If you’re making a clover-themed wall, it could be fun to include one or two four-leaf clovers as a surprise! Ladybugs in red or yellow would go well with the green clovers.

If you’re creating this for childcare settings, it might be cute to have the children make themselves as ladybugs!
