Ideas for autumn wall decorations (51–60)

Squirrel Wreath

How about making a super-cute squirrel wreath to feel the autumn season? As prep work, the teacher should cut construction paper into 3.5 cm-wide strips.

Choose autumnal colors like yellow, orange, and red.

Have the children stamp patterns on the paper with cotton swabs or decorate it with stickers.

Once the decorating is done, apply glue along a 2 cm-wide section and form each strip into a loop.

After making nine loops, thread a string through their centers to connect them and shape them into a circular wreath.

Next, glue acorns onto the wreath and attach a squirrel face made from construction paper to finish it off!

Acorns with crayons and stickers

Here’s a fun acorn craft you can tackle using your creativity with crayons and stickers.

First, cut and paste construction paper to make the acorn.

If you create the cap and the body separately and layer them, it will add a three-dimensional feel.

Then, decorate the acorn with stickers and add facial features made from construction paper.

It’s interesting because you can work while thinking, “What kind of face should I make?” or “How can I make it look cute?” Everyone’s will turn out differently, so sharing them afterward will likely be a lot of fun.

Rolling Acorn

How about enjoying a craft activity with children that makes the most of acorns, one of autumn’s natural treasures? In fall, kids have more chances to pick up acorns outdoors.

Paint the acorns in any colors you like and roll them around on construction paper—they’ll transform into wonderful art! Then cut the paper into leaf shapes and stick origami acorns on top to complete a piece that’s full of autumn vibes.

It’s also a great idea to decorate with the colorful fallen leaves you actually collected.

It’ll make a wall display brimming with both the children’s individuality and the essence of autumn.

Three-dimensional grapes made with sticker pasting

This is a 3D grape craft made by sticking round-cut origami pieces onto a long, narrow strip of construction paper.

Put double-sided tape on the back of the cut-out origami circles, and have the children peel and stick them.

Once the origami pieces are attached, wrap the strip around a triangular piece of construction paper in a spiral.

Finally, add a pipe-cleaner stem and paper leaves to finish.

You can also use stickers instead of origami, of course.

Let the children choose their favorite patterns.

It’s a perfect idea for an autumn wall decoration.

Bagworm made with a toilet paper roll core

Would you like to make three-dimensional bagworms using toilet paper rolls? First, prepare construction paper in various colors and have the children tear it into pieces.

Once you have enough pieces, glue them onto the toilet paper rolls.

Let some pieces stick out a little to make the bagworms look more authentic.

After the glue dries, draw the eyes and mouth to create your original bagworms.

When displaying them, hang them on a string for a cute exhibit that gently sways.
