[Graduation Ceremony] Ideas for Wall and Venue Decorations Using Balloons

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

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.

When you decorate the graduation ceremony venue with balloons, the children’s smiles shine even brighter.

There are countless ways to adorn the venue walls—from balloons made out of construction paper to real balloons—depending on your ideas.

Here, we share plenty of tips for decorating the venue, such as wall displays that incorporate children’s artwork like marbling and stamping, and ways to create a festive look with balloon garlands.

Create an unforgettable day with venue decorations perfect for a graduation ceremony!

Spring decorations made with 100-yen store balloons

Here’s how to make a spring-like flower decoration using small balloons.

You’ll need six balloons for one flower.

Five of them will be used for the petals, and the remaining one for the center.

First, inflate the balloons for the petals to match the size of the flower you want to make.

Tie the openings together to secure them, and adjust their positions to form the shape of a flower.

After inflating the balloon for the center, twist it in the middle to divide it into two.

Wrap this around the middle of the petals to secure it, and you’re done.

Attach the center on both the front and back so that the flower looks complete from either side.

How to make a balloon tower

How to make a balloon tower

Balloon towers are recommended when you want to make the venue entrance look festive.

In this idea, you tie inflated balloons in pairs, connect the pairs, twist the connected sections, and secure them to a banner flag stand.

We used 32 balloons, but please adjust the number to fit the size of your stand.

If you don’t have a banner flag stand, you can substitute one by fixing a tension rod in place with 2-liter water-filled bottles.

To make it even more luxurious, add a star-shaped decorative balloon on top and fill the gaps between balloons with floral decorations.

This is a cherry blossom wall decoration using balloons, paper fans, and tissue paper petals.

Prepare light pink and clear balloons, pink and cream-colored paper fans, and cherry blossom–colored tissue paper.

By unifying the palette with soft hues, you’ll create a decoration that’s both springlike and cute.

It’s recommended to group the balloons and paper fans together, then arrange the petals so they appear to flow outward from that cluster.

This way, the balloons and paper fans will look like a cherry blossom tree.

If you’re looking for a hanging decoration, how about a balloon mobile you can easily make with construction paper? Prepare three pieces of construction paper cut into balloon shapes, then make two valley folds in the center to match the width of the balloon’s mouth.

Attach a long, sparkly tape to the mouth, and glue the three pieces together along the folded sections to create a three-dimensional balloon.

Hang them from a frame made with piano wire and thread, and display it from the ceiling.

Enjoy a lovely space where the balloons look like they’re floating in the air.

Cute flowers made with balloons

Here’s a cute idea for making a flower out of heart-shaped balloons.

Inflate five heart balloons, gather them at the necks, and arrange them into a flower shape.

Add a round balloon in the center as the pistil to create a three-dimensional flower.

Make the pistil by connecting two round balloons together, and attach them so the flower looks complete from both the front and back.

When connecting, gather and tie the necks or pull and wrap them around tightly so you can assemble it without glue.

Use balloons in various colors to create a bright, festive decoration.
