Let’s create using everyday materials! Here are some cherry blossom craft ideas using straw stamps.

When you think of spring, many people probably imagine cherry blossoms.

This time, let’s make cherry blossoms using straws, a material familiar to children.

You will need construction paper, straws, scissors, paint, and crayons.

Draw the cherry tree trunk with crayons on the construction paper, then use cut straws to spread thinned paint.

It works well if you snip the tip of the straw with scissors to make five petals!

Cherry blossom tree made with a paper roll stamp

Let’s learn about the characteristics of cherry blossom petals! Here’s an idea for making a cherry tree using a toilet paper roll stamp.

Cherry blossom petals are distinctive because the tips split into two, making them look like long, heart-shaped petals.

Let’s create those characteristic petal shapes together with children! You’ll need construction paper, scissors, glue, paint, and a toilet paper roll.

The key to this craft is shaping the toilet paper roll into a cherry blossom petal! Feel free to adapt the process to suit children’s ages and developmental stages.

Origami Tulip

I think it’s common to include seasonal flowers and motifs as craft play using origami.

How about folding tulips—those cute, plump flowers that bloom in spring—out of origami paper? There are various ways to fold them, but a simple method I recommend is: first fold into a triangle, then fold that in half into another triangle, open it once, fold both sides inward symmetrically, and finally tuck in the three corners—done.

As the children’s song “Tulips” says, why not fold lots of them in red, white, and yellow for a colorful display?

A frame-style wall decoration made with real cherry blossom petals

Let’s make a collage using real cherry blossom petals.

First, draw a tree trunk on a square, board-like piece of cardboard and cut it out as a silhouette.

Then attach clear film to both the front and back, and arrange the collected cherry blossom petals sandwiched between the films.

This way, it will look as if cherry blossoms are truly blooming from the cardboard trunk.

A palm-sized, portable version is great, and creating a larger, more dramatic piece also sounds fun.

Place the petals wherever you like and make a one-of-a-kind collage.

Cherry blossoms decorated using pillars

@mtkyotaku_sv

The wall decorations for April are complete. 🌸Fee-based nursing home#OmogariTsubakiWall decoration#CherryBlossom

Sakura (Solo) – Rimi Natsukawa

An idea that’s perfect for large spaces like plazas, gymnasiums, and entrance areas is to use pillars to create cherry blossoms.

First, find a pillar to serve as the base.

Then treat the pillar as the trunk of a cherry tree and decorate the top with cherry blossoms made from origami or similar materials.

Add plenty of blossoms to evoke a tree in full bloom.

Because it uses the entire pillar, the piece will have a strong presence even in wide spaces.

As a variation, you could wrap the pillar with wood-colored paper.

This will make it look even more like a cherry tree.

flower field mobile

[Hanging Decoration] Fluttering Butterfly Flower-Field Mobile [Spring Craft]

Let’s make it with a paper cup! Here’s an idea for a cute flower-field mobile with fluttering butterflies.

You’ll need a paper cup, scissors, colored construction paper, round stickers, pens, tape, thread, decorative materials, and ribbon.

First, cut six slits evenly around the paper cup.

Open the slits, turn the cup upside down, and round off the tips of the slit sections.

Next, use the colored paper to make butterflies and flowers, and add patterns with round stickers and pens.

Finally, connect the paper cup and the paper motifs with thread, decorate the paper cup, and you’re done!

Mechanical wall

Karakuri Hekimen April #KarakuriHekimen

Spin it with a twirl and cherry blossoms bloom! Here’s an idea for a mechanical (karakuri) wall display.

Adding a little mechanism to the wall will make kids even more excited to come to the daycare! Let’s create a karakuri wall perfect for spring.

You’ll need: base paper, thick paper, pens, scissors, a ruler, a compass, and a craft knife.

Making it together with the children is great too—it lets them experience a sense of accomplishment and togetherness.

Be sure to give it a try.

Let’s make the cherry blossoms burst into full bloom!
