How to make rainbow pom-poms
Would you like to make rainbow-colored pom-poms that will instantly brighten up your venue when hung from the ceiling? All you need are tissue paper and thread, so even beginners can try with ease.
First, prepare several sheets of tissue paper in 5 to 7 colors to represent a rainbow.
Divide them into two groups, accordion-fold each group, then fold each in half and tie the center with thread.
Tie the two pieces together with thread, attach a string for hanging, and round the edges of the tissue paper with scissors.
Finally, gently separate and fluff each sheet one by one to form a circle—and you’re done!
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.
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.
cherry blossoms
Cherry blossoms are perfect for graduation season and can be easily made with origami, so teachers and children can create them together.
The bright, room-decorating cherry blossoms will help the children feel the moment of their departure.
They also make an ideal motif to highlight the main wall display, so we recommend making them alongside other decorations.
Simply changing the colors or sizes will result in a visually vibrant wall decoration.
Let’s make lots together and brighten up the graduation ceremony.
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.
Make it with templates! Flower wall decoration
Layered petals look gorgeous! Here’s an idea for flowers you can use on walls.
You can download the template from the video description, so first print it out, place it over construction paper, and cut out the parts.
Once the parts are cut, follow the instructions to crease them, then layer and glue them together in the order of large flower, medium flower, and small flower to finish.
Using different colors of construction paper for each part will make it even more colorful.
Please use this together with the “Congratulations on graduation from kindergarten” message.
A rainbow made with torn-paper collage
@hoikusi1 A childcare worker clearly explains how to make a rainbow using torn-paper collage. It’s easy to create with origami paper and can also be used for wall displays. Suitable for ages 4 and up.#Childcare CraftingChildcare Ideas#Chigiri-eWall decorationNursery teacher / Childcare worker
♪ Original Song – Manual for First-Year Nursery Teachers – Manual for First-Year Nursery Teachers
Let’s make a rainbow wall decoration using chigirie, a collage technique that depicts pictures with small, torn pieces of paper.
Prepare red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple paper, and tear them by hand.
Once all the paper is torn, paste the pieces according to the sketch.
Although this idea takes a bit of time to create, it results in a warm, handmade feel that makes it perfect for a preschool graduation ceremony.
It would also be nice for current students and teachers to work together to make it as one of the graduation gifts.
