Spring wall decorations: A roundup of recommended motifs for nurseries and kindergartens

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

Easter Bunny

@sachimama_asobi
Easy one-sheet origami 💛 How to make an Easter Bunny Did you know Easter is on March 31 this year? ✨ Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ—also known as the Resurrection Festival. When you think of Easter, you think of eggs and bunnies, right? I made a bunny that looks like it’s saying “Hello!” from inside an egg 🥰 It’s super easy, so give it a try 💓 I thought mixing materials would be cute, so I added a ribbon I found in the craft section at Daiso, but of course it’s fine without one! You can cut and paste pieces of origami, or make a tiny ribbon from origami like I posted before—that would be cute too ✨ +——————————————+ I’m Sachi, a mom of three boys aged 8, 6, and 2, in the midst of lively chaos ❀´- I share simple crafts and play ideas with kids using 100-yen items, natural materials, and recyclables.

The rounded shape is so cute! Let me introduce an idea for making an Easter bunny out of origami.

What you need are origami paper, white round stickers, pens or colored pencils, and decorations like ribbons.

The adorable Easter bunny can be made with just one sheet of origami paper, which is great! The key points are the egg-like round body and the perky ears, so make sure to crease firmly as you fold.

Once it’s finished, stick on the little white round-sticker hands and draw the face!

Easter wreath

Here’s how to make an Easter wreath using a paper plate.

Prepare a paper plate, yarn, glue, scissors, round stickers, and construction paper.

Cut out the center of the paper plate to create the wreath base.

Cut construction paper into egg shapes and glue them onto the plate to form the wreath.

Using colorful egg cutouts will give it a stronger Easter feel.

Attach chicks and bunnies to the yarn and add a loop for hanging, and you’re done.

Making an Easter wreath is a great way to liven up April festivities.

Dandelion fluff made from raffia tape (Suzuran tape)

It looks like the fluffy seeds could float away! Here’s an idea for making dandelion fluff with raffia tape.

You’ll need white raffia tape, scissors, and vinyl tape.

After wrapping the raffia tape, bundle it together, split it finely with your fingertips, and secure it with vinyl tape—this simple method is the charm of the idea.

The more finely you split the tape, the fluffier it turns out, which is really fun! Be sure to try it for a spring craft project.

Cherry blossoms made by sputtering

https://www.tiktok.com/@hoikushi_bank/video/6943067583113465089

Let’s paint using the delicate motion of watercolor! Here are some ideas for creating cherry blossoms with the spattering technique.

You’ll need drawing paper, a paper stencil cut into a cherry blossom shape, a blending mesh (screen), a toothbrush, and paint thinned with water.

Spattering is great because you can depict your motif without using pens or crayons.

No two large or small paint splashes are ever the same, so each person’s individuality will shine! Give the spattering technique a try and paint beautiful cherry blossoms.

Here’s a dandelion craft made with a sponge stamp.

The process is the same as making a traditional tampo stamp, but since you use a sponge, it seems easy to make.

Wrap a sponge around the tip of a disposable chopstick and secure it with a rubber band—your stamp is ready.

Then stamp orange paint onto a yellow piece of construction paper cut into a dandelion shape, and it’s complete.

You can display it on the wall as is, or add a stem and leaves to make it look even more like a dandelion.

When infants are making it, wrapping the chopstick with colored tape or vinyl tape can make it safer to use!
