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.

[Childcare] Ideas for March Wall Decorations (21–30)
The Emperor doll and the Empress doll
These are the Emperor and Empress dolls with gentle faces that bring a sense of calm when you look at them.
Let’s decorate the classroom walls and get ready for Hinamatsuri.
Prepare parts like the faces, hair, and kimono by cutting colored construction paper, then assemble and glue them together.
It might be fun to let the children draw the faces freely and display a row of unique hina dolls on the wall.
Now that chances to see five-tiered or seven-tiered displays are decreasing, it could be nice to decorate the wall with the three court ladies and five musicians as well, and share stories related to hina dolls.
A cute flower made from one sheet of tissue paper
Here’s how to make a cute flower using just one sheet of tissue paper.
First, fold the tissue paper into an accordion.
Then fold it in half.
After folding, round off the edges with scissors.
Staple the center, and gently open up the flower.
Once it’s opened, press down the center to finish.
You can make lots of flowers to decorate a wall, add leaves to make a bouquet, or cut the edges into points to turn it into a dandelion—there are many ways to arrange them, so give it a try!

Tulip wall decoration
Make use of paper plates! Here’s an idea for a wall decoration made by attaching tulips.
It’s perfect for those who want to create small decorations due to the size of the classroom or limited display space.
You can also hang them not only on walls but on doors, lockers, or shoe racks.
You’ll need: decorative paper plates, origami paper, ribbon, glue or tape, tissue paper, twist ties, and scissors.
Displaying colorful tulip creations in the room will brighten up the space!
rapeseed blossoms
Let’s make rapeseed blossoms with adorable clusters of tiny flowers! Here are some ideas for creating rapeseed flowers.
Instead of origami, using construction paper lets you create larger, more impressive pieces.
You’ll need colored construction paper, scissors, glue or tape, a stapler, and a ruler.
It’s also fun to play with shades of yellow and yellow-green—adjusting the hues can create a gentle feel or a bold, striking look.
Celebrate children’s enrollment and advancement with a dynamic wall display.
cherry blossom arch window
Cherry blossoms made as papercut art from folded origami.
By changing where you use scissors or a craft knife, you can create cherry blossoms in many different designs.
Try displaying the cherry blossom papercuts in an arched window made from origami.
If you make the window with blue origami paper, it will look like cherry blossoms blooming under a blue sky.
The blue sky seems to bless the children’s upcoming life at the kindergarten.
If you also make cherry blossom petals from origami and decorate the wall, it will look even more beautiful.
This is a craft you can adapt to flowers of other seasons as well, not just cherry blossoms.
Sakura made of yarn
Here’s an idea for making yarn cherry blossoms without knitting.
First, prepare white and red yarn and a template shaped like the letter “凸.” The template should have slits at the tips.
For detailed measurements, refer to various websites or homepages.
Then follow the steps to wrap the yarn around the template and form the cherry blossom petals.
Since you’ll be gluing the pieces together, there’s no need to knit.
Even people unfamiliar with knitting can try this easily.
If it doesn’t come out well, I recommend adjusting the size of the thick paper template.
Spring flowers made with blow painting
We’ll introduce a spring-themed craft using blow painting to create spring flowers.
Prepare drawing paper, crayons, paint, brushes, and water.
Draw the leaves and stems of the flowers on the paper, and decide where the flowers will go.
Drop some paint for the flower color slightly above the crayon-drawn stems, then blow through a straw to spread the paint.
The paint will scatter around, forming petal-like shapes and delightful, unexpected patterns.
When blowing through the straw, keep it a little distance from the paint and blow with some force—this is the key.
Give this a try for your spring art project!
