Spring wall decorations: A roundup of recommended motifs for nurseries and kindergartens (21–30)
Ladybug and clover
Here’s a wall decoration idea featuring clovers that start blooming around March and ladybugs that herald the arrival of spring.
Most clovers you see are three-leafed, but it’s said that finding a four-leaf clover brings good luck.
If you’re making a clover-themed wall, it could be fun to include one or two four-leaf clovers as a surprise! Ladybugs in red or yellow would go well with the green clovers.
If you’re creating this for childcare settings, it might be cute to have the children make themselves as ladybugs!
Skeleton Sakura
I’ll show you how to make beautiful, translucent skeleton cherry blossoms.
First, fold and cut origami paper to create a cherry blossom–shaped frame.
Next, trace the cherry blossom shape onto a clear plastic sheet and stick on small pieces of transparent origami.
Finally, layer the frame over the clear sheet and trim the excess with scissors to finish.
Hang them by a window or from the ceiling, and you’ll get colorful light shining through.
If you’re looking for a stylish and cute craft, be sure to give this a try.
Cherry blossoms made with newspaper stamps

Let’s make use of familiar materials! I’ll show you an idea for creating cherry blossoms using a newspaper stamp.
You’ll need drawing paper, crayons, newspaper, paint, and a paper plate.
First, use crayons to draw the cherry tree trunk on the drawing paper.
Next, put some paint on the paper plate.
A single color looks nice, but I recommend using two colors so you can enjoy the way they blend.
Finally, pick up some paint with a crumpled piece of newspaper and dab it onto the paper—stamp, stamp—and you’ll have a tree full of cherry blossoms!
Pop-up 3D cherry blossoms
Create an eye-catching wall with dynamic design! Here are ideas for pop-up 3D cherry blossoms.
While most wall displays are flat, three-dimensional ones make a strong impression and add a festive touch.
This time, let’s make pop-up 3D cherry blossoms that can be stored away after display.
Some steps are a bit complex, but by working together with teachers or guardians, you’ll be able to complete a beautiful piece.
Give it a try!
dandelion
Yellow dandelions are a favorite flower of children and are often seen on walks.
Dandelions bloom with cute flowers anywhere, and their colors and shapes are perfect for spring.
There are places online where you can download free templates, so using them is one option.
Let’s make fluffy seed heads along with the flowers.
If you cover the wall with dandelions and make and attach butterflies above them, you’ll create a wall full of spring vibes.
I’m looking forward to seeing the children’s happy faces.
Hina dolls
These days, compact Hina displays that blend into modern interiors are popular, so children may have fewer chances to see an impressive five-tier arrangement.
If they’ve never seen one in person, even hearing the song about the “Goninbayashi’s flutes and drums” can make it hard to picture.
In that case, why not recreate the traditional tiered Hina display on your classroom wall? As the children look at the Three Court Ladies and the Five Musicians lined up beneath the Emperor and Empress dolls, it’s a great opportunity to share stories about Hina dolls with them!
Easter egg
Easter eggs have become quite popular in Japan, too.
Just looking at the colorful eggs is enough to lift your spirits.
Since the motif itself is so cute, even children who aren’t familiar with Easter festivities will enjoy them.
Use combinations of masking tape to decorate the eggs.
You can find plenty at 100-yen shops, so gather some pretty tapes and have fun creating patterns.
If you also make a rabbit—the animal said to carry the Easter eggs—it will turn out even cuter.
