[Childcare] November wall decorations and autumn craft ideas

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.

As the days when we feel a slight chill gradually increase, November overflows with the cozy charm of autumn.

This time, we’re introducing recommended wall decorations for November, along with creative autumn craft ideas.

From pieces that incorporate natural materials like vividly colored leaves and acorns, to delicious seasonal foods like chestnuts and grapes, and familiar autumn creatures such as bagworms and hedgehogs—these projects are packed with ideas that capture the essence of fall.

Make the most of children’s individuality in their creations and enjoy the autumn season to the fullest!

Because the items children make are treated as artworks, we refer to them as “seisaku” (creations) in the text.

Chestnuts made with a toilet paper roll stamp

If you do stamping with a toilet paper roll core, you can create the spiky burr of a chestnut.

First, make evenly spaced, thin cuts about two-thirds of the way down the roll.

Spread the cut sections outward to form a stamp with a built-in handle.

Next, dip it in yellow paint and stamp onto drawing paper.

Layering orange or red looks beautiful, too.

Finally, paste a paper chestnut in the center—and you’re done! It’s recommended to draw a face on the chestnut for an extra cute finish.

In conclusion

We introduced some recommended wall decoration ideas for November. By displaying each child’s individual work on the wall, it seems we can further deepen their interest in and curiosity about the season. It’s also a great idea to express the feeling of autumn by using warm, cozy materials like yarn, fallen leaves, and acorns. By incorporating a variety of ideas, we hope the children can fully experience the many charms of autumn!
