Cute Santa Claus wall decorations! A perfect collection of ideas for December childcare (41–50)
Moving Santa Claus
How about making a Santa who climbs up a chimney using a paper cup? First, cut out the bottom of the paper cup.
Next, cut two pieces of a red straw, each about 5 cm long.
Attach them to the inside of the paper cup with red vinyl tape, and the mechanism is complete.
Then, stick a Santa made from colored construction paper onto the cup and prepare a background with a chimney, Christmas tree, etc.
Fix a string to the wall or loop it over a hook, and when you pull the two ends of the twine to the left and right, Santa will climb upward.
Have fun!

Santa with a beard made from handprints
Introducing a gift-shaped wall decoration that’s perfect for Christmas.
The materials are a square backing sheet, origami paper, construction paper for handprints, a face template, decorations, a pen, glue, paint, and round stickers.
First, use white paint to make a handprint stamp on the construction paper, then cut out the handprint.
Cut out the face template as well.
Next, fold two sheets of origami using the “octopus” folding method, fold up the bottom part, and make two triangles.
For one of them, combine the face and the handprint to create Santa Claus.
Use a round sticker for the nose, turn the handprint into the beard, and draw the eyes with a pen.
For the other triangle, decorate it with round stickers, stars, and other accents to make a Christmas tree.
Finally, paste everything onto the square backing sheet and you’re done! Adding a ribbon decoration to the top of the backing makes it extra cute.
A Santa Claus with dangling, wiggling arms and legs
The dangling arms and legs are so cute, aren’t they? Here’s a fun craft that’ll make you excited to create: a Santa Claus made using a toilet paper roll.
Prepare a toilet paper roll, origami paper, yarn, and parts for Santa’s face.
Wrap one sheet of origami around the roll, then use origami in your favorite colors to make Santa’s outfit.
The key tip is to cut two slits at the top and two at the bottom of the roll so you can thread the yarn for Santa’s arms and legs.
It’s a craft that will make you look forward to Christmas!
Santa Claus with a star wreath
This is a star-shaped candle wreath that’s fun to make by combining origami in different colors.
You’ll need five 7.5 cm square sheets of origami paper and a chenille stem (pipe cleaner).
The folding is simple enough for kids to try, but adults should help with the finer steps.
Make five identical pieces and join them to form a star.
Apply glue to the leg-like protruding parts, overlap them, and connect the pieces.
Then twist white and red pipe cleaners together to make a candle and attach it to the star wreath.
Add another pipe cleaner at the top to make a strap.
It also makes a perfect ornament for your tree.
Climbing Santa Claus
We’re excited to introduce a fun craft where Santa Claus delivers presents when you pull a string.
Let’s make a base and parts for Santa out of thick paper and glue them together.
A sturdy, thick paper base is recommended because it’s more stable.
For the moving parts of Santa, the key is to cut a straw into thirds and attach two pieces in a V shape.
Don’t forget to thread a straw through the top of Santa’s head, which will serve as the central guide when you pull the string.
You’ll end up with an adorable, animated Santa wall decoration!
Santa made with a paper plate
How about making a Santa decoration using paper plates for picnics and the like? All you need are red and white construction paper, crayons, and a paper plate.
First, fold the red paper several times and cut out three isosceles triangles.
Next, fold the paper plate in half, attach it to the red paper triangles to form Santa’s face, and glue a white paper circle to the tip of each triangle.
Finally, draw Santa’s face with crayons—and you’re done! The cute result is sure to warm your heart.
In conclusion
By December, the childcare room is sure to be filled with delightful Santas.
Wall display ideas made from construction paper can create a warm, uniquely Christmas atmosphere when crafted carefully by hand.
Try experimenting with materials and techniques to make a wonderful display that will fill the children’s hearts with excitement.
