[Preschool] Tulip wall display ideas to make in April

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.

Tulips that burst into a rainbow of blooms in April make you feel festive just by looking at them, don’t they?

Let’s create tulip wall decorations to beautifully brighten up your room!

We’ve gathered a variety of ideas, from cute flat tulips to realistic three-dimensional ones.

Another charm of wall displays is that the atmosphere changes depending on the motifs you combine.

Mix and match your favorite motifs and have fun making a spring-filled wall display together with the kids!

3D tulip wreath

[Craft Idea] Let's make a cute 3D spring tulip wreath with origami! Spring Origami Tulip Wreath (April wall decoration, senior recreation, day service, occupational therapy, childcare, origami craft, easy 3D, DIY)

3D tulip wreath

Here’s how to make a 3D tulip wreath.

Gather thick paper (cardstock), decorative paper, and ribbon.

Draw a circle on the cardstock, cut out the center, and form a wreath base.

Glue origami or decorative paper along the wreath shape to create the foundation.

Using a tulip template, cut out petals from origami paper.

Glue the cut tulip petals together to form each tulip flower.

Roll origami paper into tubes to make stems, then add leaves and the tulip flowers, and glue them onto the wreath base to complete it.

When gluing the petals together, be careful not to overlap them.

Adding a ribbon gives it a fresher, spring-like feel.

Here’s how to make tulips using a teardrop-shaped stamp.

Prepare a plastic bottle cap, sponge sheet, cardboard, paint, drawing paper, tissue paper (for crafts), and crayons.

Cut the cardboard and sponge sheet into teardrop shapes and stick them together with double-sided tape.

Glue the caps together to make a handle for the stamp, then attach it firmly to the teardrop so it won’t come off.

Dip the teardrop stamp in paint and start stamping.

Stamp three times to complete the tulip shape.

Try changing the angle to make cute tulips!

Here’s a wall decoration of tulips made by letting colors bleed on kitchen paper to create vibrant effects.

Prepare construction paper, kitchen paper, paints, scissors, and glue.

Lightly dilute the paint and apply it to the kitchen paper, letting it blend in.

Once the paint is dry, cut the paper into teardrop shapes.

Cut the construction paper into teardrops of the same size.

Glue the kitchen paper and construction paper teardrops together to form tulips, and you’re done.

Give it a try—these softly blurred colors make beautifully delicate tulips!

Tulips Made with Swipe Art

Let me introduce tulips made with swipe art featuring beautiful patterns.

Prepare paints, a sponge, construction paper, crayons, and round stickers, and let’s get started.

Drip about three colors of paint vertically onto the construction paper.

Use the sponge to swipe the dripped paint horizontally.

By swiping across several times, the colors will blend and create enjoyable patterns.

Cut the paper into a tulip shape and glue it onto a backing sheet, draw the stem, add leaves using round stickers, and you’re done! It makes a great wall display where you can enjoy the color transitions, so give it a try.

Tulip Train

Let me introduce the Tulip Train, where spring tulips transform into a train.

Get construction paper, origami paper, crayons, scissors, and glue, and let’s get crafting.

First, cut the construction paper into tulip shapes to make the base.

Then glue pieces of origami paper onto the tulips.

Cut out leaves, wheels, and animals, and attach each part to the tulip.

When you connect the tulip trains the children made, you might see each one showing a different expression of the train.

Tulips made with handprints

https://www.instagram.com/p/C54Or84J9bf/

We’d like to introduce a tulip wall display made with handprints that will be a lovely keepsake of children’s growth.

Prepare construction paper, green paint, brushes, and a palette.

Cut out the flower and stem parts from construction paper, then glue them onto a background sheet.

Apply paint thinned with a little water to the children’s palms and press their handprints onto the stem area of the tulips.

The key is to press quickly when making the handprints.

Make sure to prepare everything thoroughly in advance so the activity goes smoothly.

The tulip leaves will turn into adorable handprints.

If you like, add paper cutouts shaped like butterflies for a charming, springtime wall display.

Tulip made by gluing origami pieces

https://www.instagram.com/p/C4ShRoEB_Nx/

Here’s how to make a tulip by tearing and pasting origami paper.

Gather origami paper, construction paper, crayons, glue, and scissors.

Tear the origami paper by hand or cut it with scissors to create small shapes.

Glue the pieces onto the construction paper, trying to place them so there are as few gaps as possible.

Arrange and glue together pieces with similar patterns and colors so they are close to each other, then cut them into the shape of a tulip and paste it onto the backing paper.

Finish by drawing the stem, leaves, and other details around it with crayons.
