Creating applications is exciting and useful for children, which allows you to develop small motility and creative abilities. In this article, we will offer applications for the smallest and not only.
Production of animals
Todders aged from 1 year to 2 years are easiest to make it easier to make their first appliqué from different geometric shapes. Of these, you can make almost any animal: a cat, a bear, a frog, a horse, a tigering, ccker, cockerel or giraffe. To work on the craft, you will need a sheet of paper, cardboard, adhesive pencil, marker and circula. Let's wonder how to make a dog. To begin with, we draw 4 circle with a circulation of the same diameter and cut out. Two of them lay aside, and two others - bend strictly in half, smoothed along the fold line. On the same line, we make a cut, thus getting several parts at once for appliqués: tail, two ear and paws.
Now we decide the details in the desired sequence. Two whole circles are a body and a head, the tail and paws are attached to them. We glue the details, thoroughly missing them with glue, after which they draw a muzzle with a black felt-tip pen. If desired, the muzzle can be cut from the same colored paper. And you can purchase plastic eyes in the store - in this case, the applique will look more funny. Dog ready! By analogy with it, any other animals are created. Such an applique will be able to make even the smallest baby.
If desired, the cracker can be diversified by other geometric figures: ovals, quadrishes, triangles and others. Thus, you can form a whole composition with an uncomplicated plot.
Creating a means of movement
The boys will mostly make an applique in the form of a means of movement. It may be a locomotive, bus, truck, train or even a whole ship. For the smallest, the easiest way will be made such an application also in the form of geometric shapes. For work, color paper, simple pencil, scissors, glue and cardboard are required.
Let's make a truck. To do this, cut several rectangles: one large - for the body, one is smaller - for its lower part, two - for the cabin, and one should be shorter, and one square - for the window. And also you need to cut two circle of the same diameter - this will be the wheels of the truck.
Now lay out parts on the cardboard basis in the desired order and glue. If you wish, draw individual parts using felt-tippers and complement the applique with a variety of colored paper elements, for example, you can cut trees, birds, sun or clouds. All this is done at your discretion.
There is another option to create a similar applique. For it, you will need to additionally print and cut the templates for which the details will be made. Templates need to circle on color paper, cut and glued in the desired sequence.
For older children, there is more complex, but at the same time a more fascinating version of the creation of a similar craft is a punch applique. This unusual work is done quite easily, and the materials for it will need the same: paper, glue, scissors, simple pencil and cardboard. First you need to draw on a sheet of cardboard, a means of movement. If problems arose with drawing - not trouble. You can print a template with the pattern you need and circle, or even simply glue.
Next, the course of work is very simple: the paper of the desired color must be broken into small pieces. Then these pieces are filled with empty patterns of drawing. Each of the pieces of paper is thoroughly labeled with glue and glued, so the color image should turn out. If desired, the application can be added with a variety of figures.
How to make vegetables and fruits?
Make vegetables and fruits for kids for 2-3 years will not be difficult. It may be repka, and cabbage, and apples, and lemon. If you wish, you can make an applique in the form of a whole bowl with a variety of fruits and vegetables. There are several ways to create such an applique. The first one is the most simple. For it you need to print the template, cut it, circle on paper the desired color and glue. This option is suitable for crafts in the younger group of kindergarten.
For older children, it is recommended to choose a more complex option. It implies drawing fruits and vegetables with their subsequent cutting. In this case, individual elements for appliqués, whether it is a tail or a stalk of fruit, the child should also cut or draw a felt-tip pen.
The most difficult version is the creation of a volumetric applique. For such work, you can use already ready templates and make your own blanks.
To create volumetric fruits, you will need to cut several identical details at once. For convenience, it is better to fold the paper several times into the harmonica and cut the silhouette of a fruit or vegetable from it - so you can make several identical details at once. As a result, 4 details of the fruit or vegetable you need should be.
We fold each of the details strictly in half, we scroll them with glue along the fold line and glue together, forming the fruit or vegetable you need so that it turns out to be volumetric. After that, we glue the resulting craft to the cardboard. If you wish, you can make a whole composition, additionally cutting other fruits and vegetables, as well as a basket or a bowl for them.
