[January Childcare] Rabbit-Themed Wall Display Ideas

20 years of experience as a nursery teacher / kindergarten teacherhiyoko sensei
I’m Hiyoko-sensei, a former nursery school teacher from Hyogo Prefecture. Ever since I was five, my dream was to become a childcare worker, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed since I achieved that dream. Through singing and playing with the children, I kept working with the spirit of someone in their twenties, even as I increasingly felt my physical limits year by year (haha). From here on, I’d like to share helpful information carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on my on-site experience.

After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

Rabbits often appear in picture books and songs, making them one of the animals most familiar to children.

They’re also frequently used as motifs in crafts.

So for teachers who are looking for January wall display ideas, how about creating a wall display that features rabbit motifs?

If you combine them with New Year–themed items like snow bunnies, fukuwarai, or daruma, children can also learn about New Year’s traditions.

We’re also sharing ideas you can make together with the children, so please use them as inspiration for your wall displays.

Because the children’s creations are treated as “artworks,” we use the term “seisaku (制作)” in the text.

Snow Rabbits and Nandina

Snow Rabbits and Nandina

This is a wall decoration featuring a cute, rounded snow rabbit and nandina.

Wrap crumpled newspaper with wrinkled copy paper and secure it with glue so it doesn’t open.

Roll small pieces of red origami to make nandina berries, and cut green origami to prepare leaf parts.

Use two nandina berries for the rabbit’s eyes and two leaves for its ears to complete the snow rabbit! Finally, glue the berries you rolled onto a branch made from construction paper, and display them together with the rabbit.

In conclusion

We introduced wall décor ideas with a rabbit motif.

Rabbits are among the animals popular with children.

In January, we recommend making rabbits as a New Year-themed motif.

It will also be a good opportunity to learn about New Year’s customs.

For ideas to make together with the children, teachers should join in the crafting as well.
