[Childcare] Ideas for March wall decorations
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 (31–40)
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?
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!
Tulips made from flower paper
Cute tulips with a gentle, calm vibe! Here are some ideas for making tulips with flower paper.
Flower paper is a material often used in crafts; it has a soft, delicate texture and comes in a wide range of colors.
It’s lightweight and easy to work with, so kids can make things without needing much strength.
What you’ll need: flower paper, wire, double-sided tape, scissors, green masking tape, and a straw.
Take this opportunity to give it a try!
Torn-paper cherry blossoms
Let me introduce a torn-paper collage of cherry blossoms that captures the warm feeling of spring.
Get your materials ready: origami paper, construction paper, colored pencils, scissors, glue, and double-sided tape.
First, make a draft, cut out the cherry blossoms, and start sticking torn pieces of origami onto them.
The key is to place the pieces so there are no gaps.
If you glue cherry blossom-shaped origami cutouts on top of the collage, it might create a more three-dimensional look.
Once you attach the cherry blossom trunk, it’s complete! Cutting additional origami into cherry blossom shapes and decorating around it will make it even more vibrant.
Honeybees and a flower field
Shall we make a spring-themed wall decoration of a flower field with bees flying overhead? First, create a template, place it on yellow origami paper, and make the bee’s body.
Draw the black stripes and face with a black colored pencil or felt-tip pen.
Use the template to make the wings all at once as well.
For the flowers, fold the paper into a circle shape and cut; to add a three-dimensional look, use a pencil to gently curl them.
Vary the cutting style and colors for different flowers to create a rich, varied flower field.
Arrange and glue everything neatly onto a colored construction-paper backing to finish.

Tulips made with teardrop-shaped stamps
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!
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.
