Deputy Editor of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. I’m Sasashina, a mom currently raising an elementary schooler and a preschooler. During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

In summer, there are plenty of events—like swimming at the beach and summer festivals—that children love.

Many of you may want to capture that fun atmosphere in your childcare facility’s wall decorations.

In this article, we’ll introduce wall decoration ideas recommended for August, when the summer heat is at its peak.

We’ve gathered a variety of ideas, including not only summer events but also classic symbols of the season, as well as sea creatures and foods that children love.

There are lots of ideas you can make together with the children, so be sure to use them during your craft time.

[Childcare] August Wall Decoration Ideas (41–50)

Watercolor-style Shirokuma (polar bear) panties

Even polar bears that aren’t good with the heat might still want to enjoy summer a little, right? To help a polar bear get into the summer spirit, let’s make some cute shorts! Cut construction paper into the shape of shorts, lightly mist it with a spray bottle, and drop several colors of paint thinned with plenty of water to create a bleeding effect.

Once the colors have dried, combine it with construction paper cut into a polar bear shape and add parts like the eyes and mouth to finish! You could also have the children draw the eyes and mouth later with crayons.

[Kindergarten/Daycare] August: My Smooth Sandy Beach – Drawing/Craft

Summer-themed art projects and activities not only let children enjoy the season, they also nurture their imagination! Let’s try expressing a beach atmosphere through art to boost those summer vibes.

Kids can color freely on construction paper shaped like a beach umbrella, or tear tissue paper to resemble beach sand and glue it onto paper.

With their free ideas, what kind of beach will they create? Both children and teachers will be excited to find out.

It would also be lovely to display the children’s drawings or photos under the umbrella!

[Finger Stamp] Fireworks

[Production] How to Make Fireworks! Simple yet customizable! Introducing 9 patterns

[Finger Stamp] Fireworks

Here’s a simple firework craft idea: just dab paint with your fingers onto a round piece of black construction paper.

It’s best to use highly pigmented paint at full strength, but if the paint is too thick, mix in a little water.

Since you’ll be putting paint on fingertips, have a wet towel ready for wiping hands.

There’s no set rule for how to apply the paint—radiating from the center or all over the surface are both fine.

Let the kids follow their own instincts; you’ll enjoy seeing all kinds of firework shapes.

Once finished, mount the piece on construction paper and use it as a wall decoration.
