Gift-shaped card
Let’s try making a cute present box–shaped message card with a colorful ribbon.
It would be wonderful if the recipient is delighted to receive it.
Anyone can make it easily if you have colorful origami paper, so give it a try.
If you have two-tone paper with different colors on each side, it’s even easier—so first, prepare your favorite color paper.
We’ll fold it into a square present box shape here.
As you fold, write your message inside the box.
Once you’ve added your message, close up the box.
And you’re done—a charming message card with a bow that pops out like a ribbon!
Hand-drawn illustration card
Message cards adorned with hand-drawn illustrations make it easy for each teacher to express their own personality and feelings.
Their warmth, which is different from more elaborate creations, will surely come across to the children as well.
In addition to graduation-themed designs, it’s wonderful to add a special touch by drawing things related to each child’s memories or their favorite things.
As you make them, countless memories are sure to come rushing back—these simple yet love-filled message cards are a perfect way to convey your affection to the children.
Pop-up bouquet and heart
How about sending a congratulatory telegram featuring a bouquet and heart motif to celebrate the kindergarten graduation? If you make it by hand with care, the children are sure to be moved! The card base will include pop-up mechanisms for both the bouquet and the hearts.
Both are simple to make, so give it a try.
You can create originality by playing with the color combinations of the flowers in the bouquet and the shades of the hearts.
It would also be lovely to tuck in personalized messages for each child.

Message cards made with stickers and masking tape
These days, 100-yen shops sell a wide variety of cute stickers and masking tapes.
Here’s an idea to make a message card using those stickers and washi tapes.
Small cards are cute, but if you use postcard size, it looks more festive and gives you plenty of space to write your message.
You can decorate it with flowers to suit a preschool graduation, or add names and messages with hiragana stickers.
It’s an idea that’s easy to customize in many ways.
Flip-book style pop-up card
When you pull the strip of paper attached to the cute bear’s face, the cards flip open one after another—here’s how to make this fun flip-card.
Prepare four sheets of cardstock in the shape of a face; draw the shape on just one sheet, stack the cardstock, secure it with masking tape, and cut them all at once so they don’t shift and the shapes match perfectly.
Crease a rectangular strip of paper, then layer the face-shaped cardstock pieces onto it.
The trick is to make firm, crisp folds on the rectangular pull tab.
Use a ruler to fold neatly and securely.
Try making it with children’s faces or favorite characters.
In conclusion
We introduced handmade farewell card ideas.
Message cards with various motifs—like clovers, pandas, and cherry blossoms—make wonderful gifts for conveying your feelings to children.
Try incorporating elements that spark excitement each time the card is opened, such as pop-up mechanisms or sliding gimmicks.
For the special milestone of graduation from kindergarten, a card made with heartfelt care is sure to become a cherished treasure for the children.
