Wall Decor: Celebrate April! A Special Feature on Cherry Blossom Wall Decoration Ideas

20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

Let’s create a vibrant cherry blossom wall display to decorate in April.

May this cute cherry blossom wall become something that cheers on children as they begin their new lives.

We’ve gathered many ideas—from wall displays you can put up in classrooms and hallways to impressive designs perfect for bulletin boards in entrances and halls.

It would also be lovely to add your favorite motifs, such as spring animals or birds.

Please try making a cherry blossom wall display that will energize children, teachers, and parents alike.

Because items made by the children are treated as “artworks,” we refer to them in the text as seisaku (制作).

Here’s a craft idea for making cherry blossoms: glue crumpled tissue paper onto a base made from pink construction paper.

The tissue paper sections become three-dimensional, so they pop off the wall and look adorable.

Make the trunk and petals from construction paper, and display them together with the tissue paper blossoms.

You can crumple the tissue paper tightly, but if you want a softer, fluffier look, loosely crumple it.

Using several shades of pink also enhances the overall vibrancy.

Decorate with these springlike cherry blossoms to beautifully celebrate the preschool graduation that marks the children’s new beginning.

Cherry blossom wall featuring a window motif

Introducing how to make a cherry blossom wall decoration! Create it using origami and paper tape with a window motif. Perfect as a spring decoration for March and April! [Tsukuru-mon]

Cherry blossom wall featuring a window motif

The motif of cherry blossoms and windows that brightly decorate the wall is a perfect idea for a preschool graduation ceremony.

Fold pink origami paper to make crease lines.

Cut it into a half-circle so it forms a cherry blossom shape, and when you open it, you’ll have a sakura flower and petals.

Make a bird out of light green origami paper, then use string and paper tape to create rings that will serve as windows.

Perch the bird on a branch made from construction paper, and decorate to evoke cherry blossoms dancing in the wind—then you’re done.

Let’s beautifully adorn this special, sunny day with a handmade wall display!

Cherry blossom wall decor made with paper cutting

Why not try making a cherry blossom wall decoration with paper cutting? If all the teachers make some, you’ll end up with lots of cherry blossom designs, and it will surely become a fun, varied wall display! Fold the paper into quarters or eighths, imagine the finished blossom, make a few cuts, and when you open it up, you’ve got a splendid cherry blossom.

That little thrill might even make the process addictive.

If you use pink paper, it will look like cherry blossoms even if you make a few mistakes.

If you’re not sure how to cut, check out video sites for ideas! If you add the name of the teacher who made each one, it can double as a self-introduction, too.

Why not try making soft-looking cherry blossoms using tissue paper? First, cut the tissue paper into squares, then accordion-fold it and fold it in half.

Cut the edge opposite the fold into a petal shape, staple the center, and open it into a cherry blossom.

Next, take a smaller piece of tissue paper, accordion-fold it the same way, staple it, and snip both ends to create the flower center.

Layer the center onto the blossom and glue it in place, and you’re done.

Make lots of them to create a cherry tree or a flurry of falling petals.

Let’s make a rainbow cherry blossom wall decoration using construction paper like tape.

First, prepare seven colors of construction paper cut into tape-like strips.

Using a stapler, staple in two places to form one petal.

Make five petals in the same way.

When you put them together, one flower is complete.

Continue making flowers in different colors, arrange them in rainbow order, and display them on the wall to create a beautiful rainbow of cherry blossoms.

It’s a lovely wall decoration that expresses both the feeling of spring and the hopefulness of a rainbow.

Cherry blossom tree made with a paper roll stamp

Let’s learn about the characteristics of cherry blossom petals! Here’s an idea for making a cherry tree using a toilet paper roll stamp.

Cherry blossom petals are distinctive because the tips split into two, making them look like long, heart-shaped petals.

Let’s create those characteristic petal shapes together with children! You’ll need construction paper, scissors, glue, paint, and a toilet paper roll.

The key to this craft is shaping the toilet paper roll into a cherry blossom petal! Feel free to adapt the process to suit children’s ages and developmental stages.

Let’s make a collage using real cherry blossom petals.

First, draw a tree trunk on a square, board-like piece of cardboard and cut it out as a silhouette.

Then attach clear film to both the front and back, and arrange the collected cherry blossom petals sandwiched between the films.

This way, it will look as if cherry blossoms are truly blooming from the cardboard trunk.

A palm-sized, portable version is great, and creating a larger, more dramatic piece also sounds fun.

Place the petals wherever you like and make a one-of-a-kind collage.
