Recommended decorations for kindergarten graduation! A collection of DIY wall displays and decoration ideas

butterfly

Kimie Gangi’s spring wall display: super-easy tissue-paper “butterfly” with template included

Let’s make butterfly decorations to make spring scenes even more colorful! You can create them in various ways—cut origami or construction paper into butterfly shapes, or use tissue paper.

If you’re using tissue paper, stack several sheets, cut them into a butterfly shape, then fasten the center with a wire-edged string while forming the antennae at the same time—and you’re done! They’re easy to make, so it’s a great idea to have each child currently enrolled make one.

You can display them all together in one spot, or scatter and stick them in different places along the route the graduating children will walk—both options look festive and lovely!

balloon flower

How to make a balloon flower (the easiest rubber balloon version, with almost everything from the 100-yen shop)

A balloon flower with blossoms inside the balloon.

You’ll need artificial flowers and a clear balloon.

First, place the flower part inside the balloon and inflate it slightly.

Then, pull the flower in from the balloon’s opening so the bloom goes fully inside, and tuck in any stems or leaves that are still outside.

Inflate the balloon to the size you like, and you’re done! To keep the flower from shifting around inside, tie the flower’s stem together with the balloon’s neck when you close it.

Add a ribbon to the tied part for an extra-cute touch! Balloon flowers create a gently sophisticated mood—give it a try!

Cherry blossom garland

[Senior Recreation] Cherry Blossom Garland [Easy Craft]

How about decorating the walls of the room where the graduating children spent so much time with a cherry blossom garland for the graduation ceremony? It’s easy to make by connecting cherry blossoms folded from origami or cut from construction paper with string.

If you combine it with ribbons and various other decorations, you can create a festive garland.

We also recommend not only using pink paper but also papers with different patterns, such as cherry blossom prints, to enjoy a different cherry blossom vibe.

Let’s send off the graduates in style with cherry blossoms!

stained glass style

[100-Yen DIY] Making Stained Glass with Glass Paint ✨ [Yukkuri]

You can make it with glass paints from the 100-yen shop! Here’s how to create stained glass decorations that are perfect for graduation ceremonies.

First, take apart a wooden frame and sketch your draft on the back of a sheet of paper.

Use masking tape to secure the clear plastic sheet that comes with the set over your draft.

Using a glass pen, start by drawing the outlines with a white glass pen.

If any paint goes outside the lines, remove it with a toothpick or cotton swab.

Then, fill in the colors with pastel shades following the draft.

Next, prepare the photo frame by painting it with acrylic paint.

Finally, add a layer of clear resin, and you’re done! Try making these with the children as you get ready for the graduation ceremony.

Portraits of children

Parent-Child Crayon Drawing Lesson (1): How to Draw Faces by Age

How about decorating with portraits of the children to create a lively kindergarten graduation ceremony? You could have parents or current students draw portraits of the graduating children, or have the current students draw their own faces to give the feeling that they’re participating in the ceremony—highly recommended.

You can gather all the portraits on one large sheet of paper, or you might paste them up one by one.

Don’t just decorate the ceremony venue—put them everywhere the graduates will pass, and celebrate them all along the way! With lots of portraits, the space will be filled with a bright and gentle atmosphere.

Chalkboard Art

A complete illustration novice and current kindergarten teacher takes on chalkboard art!

All you need is a blackboard and chalk! Here are some recommended blackboard art ideas for the day of the graduation ceremony at kindergartens that have a blackboard.

Blackboard art refers to works where pictures and text are drawn on a blackboard using the chalk commonly used in schools.

Many of you may have seen it on restaurant or café menu boards.

On each blackboard, it’s also a great idea to write messages to the children or draw each child’s favorite things.

Try creating blackboard art in each class that will become a lasting memory of graduation.

Coloring flowers

[Simple ver.] I tried arranging the trending color-changing flower

It’s an idea where the ink dissolves in water and beautifully tints a white flower.

Cut kitchen paper into circles and draw a line with a water-based pen in the center.

Place each circular piece over the rim of a paper cup with the bottom cut out, and attach them as you layer them.

Make sure to layer them so that the lines drawn with the water-based pen align along the rim.

Once nothing is visible through the hole in the cup, you’re done! When you remove the kitchen paper from the cup, you’ll have a flower that looks like a rose.

There’s also a simple version where you draw lines on the kitchen paper first, then cut it, accordion-fold it, and open it up—be sure to check it out.
