Ideas you can use for autumn wall decorations

9 years of experience as a nursery school teacherShibata Risa
I am an active nursery school teacher with 9 years of experience. After graduating from university, I worked at a daycare center. The time I spent happily with children—playing piano, singing songs, and doing finger-play—are priceless memories to me. Currently, while raising three children of my own, I work at an after-school day service, engaging with children and providing individualized developmental support. Drawing on my diverse experiences as a childcare worker and as a mother, I hope to express and convey my thoughts through writing.

Autumn is full of charm—vividly colored nature, delicious fruits, moon-viewing, Halloween, and more.

How about bringing that autumn charm into your wall decorations and enjoying the season together with the children?

Here, we’ve gathered ideas for autumn wall displays perfect for nurseries and kindergartens.

We’re also introducing fun craft ideas that use child-friendly autumn motifs.

After enjoying autumn crafts with a variety of materials and unique techniques, display the works to decorate your room with an autumn feel.

Let’s all make the most of autumn together!

Ginkgo Stamp

[Kindergarten/Daycare] Feel the Fall in November! Ginkgo Stamp Art and Craft

Ginkgo Stamp

How about cutting a sponge into the shape of a ginkgo leaf and making prints with it? On white construction paper, stamp lots of ginkgo-like colors such as green, yellow, brown, and orange.

Once the prints are dry, cut them out to suggest a cluster of leaves, then attach them to a paper trunk and a hill where the ginkgo tree stands.

Make a cute squirrel out of paper too, and place it next to the ginkgo.

Depending on the size of the display area on the wall, you could also make several ginkgo trees and turn them into a ginkgo-lined avenue.

Feel free to get creative and arrange it as you like.

Footprints and sticker mushrooms

Handprint and Footprint Stamping Craft for Ages 0–2 [Autumn] [Nursery/Kindergarten]

Footprints and sticker mushrooms

Let’s try making mushrooms using children’s footprints! First, trace the children’s footprints onto construction paper.

These footprints will be used as the mushroom stems.

Next, cut out mushroom cap shapes from construction paper.

Depending on the children’s ages, have the teacher handle this step.

Once the caps are ready, attach them to the heel side of the footprints.

Then, stick round stickers onto the caps to create the mushroom spots, and you’re done! For decoration, we recommend drawing autumn-themed pictures around the mushrooms, adding leaves and seasonal foods made from construction or origami paper, or gluing on fallen leaves collected from the playground.
