Here are some ideas for March wall decorations that are useful in childcare settings.
March is packed with end-of-year events—Hinamatsuri (Girls’ Day), farewell field trips, graduation, and preparations for moving up or starting school—so it’s easy to wonder what kind of wall displays to make and when to find the time.
The ideas introduced here focus on decorations that can be displayed as complete wall pieces or used as parts.
If you work on them little by little in your spare moments and put them up, your room will not only look more vibrant, but just seeing them will lift everyone’s spirits!
As the weather gradually warms, enjoy creating colorful wall displays to match the season.

Cherry blossom wall decoration made with origami
Feel the Japanese spring indoors! Let me introduce a cherry blossom wall decoration made with origami.
What you’ll need: jute twine, paper tape, masking tape, scissors, green origami paper, light pink origami paper, brown origami paper, and a ruler.
By twisting and attaching the paper tape, you can create a round frame, and by making and attaching cherry blossoms and petals, you can give it a sense of movement—it’s a craft full of wonderful ideas.
It’s a great way to enjoy spring inside, so I highly recommend it!
Cherry blossom petal wreath
Make it with origami! Here’s an idea for a cherry blossom petal wreath.
All you need are eight quarter-size sheets of origami paper and glue.
The cherry blossom petals made from origami look adorably connected! Using just one shade of pink is nice, but it’s also lovely to mix in petals made from light pink or white origami paper.
Using traditional Japanese-patterned paper can change the vibe even more, so it’s highly recommended.
It’s a perfect idea to decorate your room wall or entryway!
cherry blossom hair ornament
Create your own little spring! Let me introduce a cherry blossom decoration.
You’ll need scissors, glue, craft scissors, a craft punch, a hole punch, a pen, origami paper, and a backing sheet.
This cherry blossom decoration is three-dimensional, and a big plus is the freedom to choose any origami colors you like.
By using gold or silver origami as accents, even a single blossom looks glamorous.
It also looks lovely displayed in a frame made from chopsticks! Please give it a try and create a cherry blossom decoration that expresses your very own little spring.
dandelion
The dandelion wall decorations bring a warm sense of spring’s arrival.
Glue together yellow pieces cut to resemble the dandelion’s fine petals and green pieces cut in the shape of the involucre beneath the petals.
Once you’ve rounded the flower portion, attach it to the stem, add the leaves, and it’s done! If you decorate the wall with cute butterflies and honeybees fluttering around the flowers, spring will arrive in your classroom in no time.
After you’ve decorated the classroom, why not go on a walk to look for real dandelions?
Animals & Flowers
This wall decoration featuring a lively collaboration between energetic animals and spring flowers is absolutely adorable! From a pig frolicking in a flower field, to a bear taking a comfy nap in a clover patch, to a dog happily picking strawberries, it’s the kind of display that makes children want to reach out and say, “So cute!” With a setup like this, time spent in nurseries and kindergartens will feel richer and more fun.
There are plenty of free downloadable materials for animals and flowers, so even teachers who aren’t confident in drawing can create charming decorations.
Try making them while imagining the children’s smiling faces!
bouquet
A bouquet wall decoration is perfect for spring, when celebrations like graduation from kindergarten and new enrollments follow one after another! First, prepare flower parts made from colored construction paper, varying the number and shape of petals as well as the colors and sizes.
Next, attach the flowers you made to the base part of the bouquet—including the wrapping—while keeping the overall balance in mind.
Finally, add a ribbon in the center to complete the bouquet.
It’s especially ideal for the classroom of the oldest kids who are about to graduate! How about decorating the room with a bouquet to express your gratitude for “all the wonderful smiles”?
Balloons and butterflies
A festive wall decoration of balloons and flowers that’s perfect for March as we wrap up the school year! Cut small pieces of washi paper and add patterns by dripping paint or brushing on color quickly.
This step is great for the kids to do themselves! Once the washi paper dries, cut it into flower shapes and stick them onto a backing sheet to finish.
For the balloons, simply attach pipe cleaners (to look like strings) to cardstock cut into balloon shapes.
Draw wishes or future dreams in the center and decorate the wall.
You can also have the children write what they want to be able to do next school year!
