paper balloon
Balloons can also serve as wall decorations that symbolize children’s dreams and hopes, and our wish for them to spread their wings freely into the future.
Prepare balloons, glue, colored construction paper, and paper tape.
Inflate the balloon to the size you want, then use glue thinned with water to attach cut pieces of construction paper to about half of the balloon.
Once it’s dry, pop the balloon inside, attach paper tape as a decorative handle, and shape it to give it a three-dimensional look—that’s it.
Since the balloon is made from construction paper, be careful during transport so it doesn’t lose its shape.
A hot air balloon made with shoji paper and balloons
The balloon wall decoration, which is also recommended for celebrating new beginnings, has a three-dimensional look and is perfect for a kindergarten graduation ceremony.
Prepare balloons, shoji paper, paint, string, and an empty container.
Before you start, paint your preferred patterns on the shoji paper and let it dry.
Inflate a balloon to the size you want your hot air balloon to be, then stick the cut shoji paper onto the balloon.
When attaching the pieces, use glue diluted with water, and be sure to smooth the paper as you go so it doesn’t wrinkle.
Once you’ve covered it, let it dry for 2–3 days.
When it’s completely dry, pop the balloon inside, attach a basket made from string and the empty container, and your hot air balloon is complete.
Give it a try!
Flowers made with balloonsNEW!
Here’s an idea for a flower you can make with seven balloons! Use five balloons for the petals and two for the center.
Inflate the petal balloons into a teardrop shape, and inflate the center balloons into round shapes smaller than the petals.
After inflating, split the petal balloons into a group of two and a group of three, and tie the necks together in each group.
Tie the two center balloons together as well so they form a single unit.
Then combine these three parts and arrange them into a flower shape—that’s it! Celebrate the children’s new beginnings with this spring-perfect decoration!
A rainbow made by children
A rainbow painting that supports the futures of children graduating from kindergarten will make a wonderful wall display for a bright, shining future.
Gather poster paper, paint, and soft sponges, and let’s get started.
If you sketch the rainbow on the poster paper beforehand, the process will go more smoothly and is recommended.
On a large sheet of poster paper, soak paint into the sponge and paint the rainbow by spreading the color with the sponge.
It’s best to start with the darker paints.
While enjoying the color gradations, this wall-display activity lets children collaborate and create happily together.
balloon art
Balloons are a familiar item for children, since they’re often used for play at daycare and preschool.
This idea involves inflating a large number of balloons and linking them together to create decorations.
The big appeal is that clustering the balloons creates a three-dimensional look and a luxurious atmosphere.
Using balloons of various sizes is a key point for enhancing the sense of depth.
It’s fun to display them as a single cluster, but arranging balloons around a main decoration after placing it also makes for a festive look.
Rainbow Arch
A rainbow-colored arch that will surely make everyone exclaim “So cute!” the moment they see it.
This is a rainbow arch made using the familiar flower garlands often seen at events like graduation and entrance ceremonies.
The basic method is the same as making the flower garlands.
However, instead of using a single color like typical garlands, you combine different colors to create a rainbow garland.
Even on its own, it works as a festive wall decoration! Hang the finished garlands from the ceiling in an arch shape, and your rainbow arch is complete! The children are sure to greet their graduation ceremony with excitement.
