Christmas tree

Easy! How to make a wall decoration of a Christmas tree! Why not try making it with origami as the material for December events? [Tsukuru-mon]

A three-dimensional origami Christmas tree wall decoration adds a unique presence that brightens your room during the holiday season, different from illustrations and the like.

The tree’s leaves and ornaments are easy to make, so it should be accessible for older adults as well.

However, since scissors and glue are used to shape the pieces, staff should provide support tailored to each participant when making it at facilities like day services.

It’s a recommended craft that offers both the excitement of the upcoming event and the sense of accomplishment of creating something yourself.

[Christmas Decorations] Easy! How to Make a Santa Paper Fan

A wall decoration with a Santa Claus theme can help people of all ages feel the spirit of Christmas.

Creating 3D elements like paper fans using construction paper as a base also has positive effects on brain activity.

You may need to use tools such as scissors and hole punches, as well as small items like fishing line and clips; for older adults, tasks that involve moving the fingers are important, so it’s best to have them make as much as possible themselves.

Displaying pieces they’ve created on their own brightens their mood—making this a wall decoration that truly captures the Christmas feeling.
