Certificate made with animal illustrations
Graduation certificates decorated with illustrations of animals that are popular with children are adorable and convey a warm feeling of celebrating their growth.
Decide which kinds of animals you want to draw, as well as the size and poses, and proceed from there.
By maintaining a cohesive overall look while asking the children about their favorite animals and incorporating those ideas, you can create a special graduation certificate that may make them very happy.
Try making an original, one-of-a-kind graduation certificate.
Use drawings made by children
Children’s drawings are truly heartwarming for parents, aren’t they? It’s also delightful to watch their skills grow with age.
How about using your child’s artwork in the preschool graduation album? You could have them draw their parents’ faces, of course, but it’s also great to ask them to draw their favorite things or memorable moments from nursery or kindergarten.
Try incorporating each child’s special masterpiece into the album.

I think there are many opportunities to draw pictures in nursery schools and kindergartens.
Many children probably enjoy freely using their favorite colors to make art.
For their graduation ceremony, a recommended wall decoration is hand-drawn illustrations.
It’s great if a teacher who is good at drawing creates and displays illustrations, and it’s also a good idea to decorate the walls with pictures the children have drawn so far.
By putting up illustrations, the walls naturally become colorful.
Holding the graduation ceremony in a bright, cheerful space will surely make it a wonderful memory.
Animals & Characters
Wall decorations featuring animals and characters that children love will add a cute touch to the graduation ceremony.
While assembling the pieces from construction paper can be a bit of work, try doing it with the children’s smiling faces in mind.
It’s also a great idea for the teachers to share ideas and divide the tasks.
If you arrange the decorations so it looks like the animals or characters are delivering messages to the graduates, the children might notice and be delighted.
These wall decorations are something we highly recommend trying, so the last day of preschool or kindergarten can be enjoyed to the fullest.
Portraits of kindergarten graduates
When you visit tourist spots and the like, you sometimes come across caricature artists who’ll draw your portrait, right? You’re often seated somewhere pretty conspicuous, and it can be a little embarrassing having everyone watch while you’re being drawn.
Even if it’s not professional quality, the memory lasts forever—so how about drawing a portrait of each child and giving it as a gift? If the kindergarten or nursery has a uniform, be sure to include it as one of the memories.
A smiling face, a crying face, a slightly bashful face… The trick is to pick the expression that best suits each child and draw that.
Sun
A sun illustration that perfectly matches the image of children energetically running around on playgrounds and in parks is a material you’ll definitely want to add to a yearbook cover or a celebratory message card.
The simple shape combining circles and triangles is, of course, cute, but a pop-style illustration with a face is also recommended.
It would make a lovely gift if you insert a photo inside the sun or write a message in it before giving it.
Let’s draw it with the feeling of “Don’t forget the memories of playing energetically under the sun with your teachers,” while wishing for the children’s healthy growth from here on.
message board (with group messages), group card, or collective autograph
A group message decorated with each child’s own words becomes both a memory and a one-of-a-kind wall decoration.
The children take center stage in the making, but teachers can help by designing the layout so each child’s message is easy to read, and by creating illustrations or small objects to brighten the empty spaces and enhance the graduation theme.
For children who can’t write well yet, teachers should support them by asking what they want to say and writing it down for them.
This handmade approach makes it a perfect wall decoration for a graduation ceremony, boosting the children’s excitement as they create it themselves.
