[Childcare] December Wall Decoration Ideas: Festive Crafts for Christmas and Winter

Pompom Stamping! Christmas Tree

Here’s a Christmas tree craft idea where you dab on color with stamps.

Prepare a tree template, stamps, paint, and drawing paper.

First, fix the tree template onto the base sheet and have the children stamp paint onto it.

Green is the main color, but adding a little white can make it look like a snow-covered tree.

Once the stamping is done, remove the template and glue on a trunk made from construction paper to finish.

After the paint dries, decorating with sticker ornaments could be fun, too.

Christmas activities for 0-year-olds

Christmas Activities for 0-Year-Olds

As part of a Christmas-themed activity, why not try making Christmas trees and ornaments? Use a stamp made by covering a lactic acid drink bottle with fabric to print patterns on construction paper, or decorate ornaments with stickers to make them festive.

In the end, you can even decorate a big tree drawn on the wall! Even children who don’t yet understand what Christmas is will surely deepen their understanding while having fun through play.

Prepare ornaments and stickers with different motifs and colors, and let the children choose for themselves.

Cute tissue paper wreath

[Childcare Craft] 0–1-year-olds: Tissue Paper Wreath, Nursery Teacher, Christmas Wreath

The step of rolling and sticking is so much fun! Let me share an idea for making a tissue paper wreath.

Before you begin, prepare a paper plate with the center cut out, white and green tissue paper cut into manageable pieces, and decorative parts like Santa and star shapes.

Have the children crumple the tissue paper into little balls and stick them onto the rim-only paper plate where you’ve applied glue.

Once they’ve gone all the way around with the tissue paper, let them place the decorative parts—made into stickers with double-sided tape—wherever they like.

Punch a hole at the top of the paper plate, thread a string through, and your Christmas wreath is complete.

Christmas tree lacing

Christmas Tree Threading Craft: A Nursery Teacher Explains an Easy Method Even Infants Can Do!

Here’s a Christmas tree craft idea that kids can enjoy while practicing lacing.

For preparation, cut out a Christmas tree and ornaments from construction paper.

Since you’ll be threading pipe cleaners through both, punch holes in them beforehand.

First, thread one end of a pipe cleaner through the tree and secure it so it won’t slip out.

Then, let the children choose their favorite ornaments and thread them onto the pipe cleaner.

Once several are on, secure the other end of the pipe cleaner to finish.

Prepare ornaments with various motifs to create a lovely Christmas tree!

Let’s make a big Christmas tree!

[Ages 0–2] Let’s make a Christmas tree!

This is an idea where you put a big Christmas tree made from construction paper on the wall and let the children freely decorate it with ornaments.

Since it’s for infants (0-year-olds), please prepare the ornament bases in advance by cutting them out of construction paper.

Let the children draw on the bases with crayons or stick on stickers to create lovely ornaments.

Once the ornaments are finished, decorate the tree with them! If you prepare bases in a variety of motifs, the tree will look even more festive.

How to make handprint reindeer and Santa

[Handprint Christmas Craft] How to Make a Reindeer and Santa (For Ages 0–2)

Here are some craft ideas for making Santa Claus and a reindeer using handprints.

For Santa, use a handprint to create his beard, and for the reindeer, use a handprint to form the face.

Since Santa’s beard uses an upside-down handprint, make sure to pay attention to the direction when stamping.

The faces are made with round stickers, so the children can also enjoy sticking the stickers.

Once Santa and the reindeer are finished, glue them onto a base with a construction paper Christmas tree attached.

Be sure to decorate the tree with round stickers as ornaments, too!

How to make an easy Mickey

Translationdrawing paperwall surfaceMickeyChildcareTranslation

♪ Original Song – Studio Ichiko – Studio Ichiko

A Mickey made out of construction paper is perfect for any season.

You can draw nicely balanced circles for Mickey’s face and ears by tracing with a compass or a ruler that has circular templates.

For the cream-colored face outline, refine the shape along the circle as you go.

Using tweezers to attach small parts like the nose and eyes may make the work easier.

It’s also fun to put a red hat on him to make a Santa-style Mickey.

Changing Mickey’s outfit to match the season can add variety and make it even more enjoyable.
