Hurray, the snow is over. And we have three months ahead of us with rains, thunderstorms, colorful rainbows and gorgeous flowers. What we will display in crafts on the theme of "Spring", which children will make with their own hands in kindergarten.
To begin with, we suggest you make a cloud with rainbow rain. Execution and details depend on your imagination and age characteristics of children. For example, for younger children, offer to make a cloud with rain from ribbons (thinner or thicker), but in the older group you can try to make bulky drops from colored paper.

Spring craft for the junior and middle group of kindergarten - flowers from ribbons, paper and ice cream sticks. Instead of textile ribbons, you can use paper serpentine, which remained after the New Year.
Everything is simple here: cut out hearts from colored paper (three for a flower, one for a piece of paper), pierce a hole in the middle of each of them and string them on a straw for drinks. Voila, and the "Spring" craft is ready. It remains only to bring more straws to the kindergarten.
For this craft, you must first draw and cut paper flowers. Then we fold a fan out of green paper and glue the prepared flowers on it.
And even toddlers from the nursery group can handle such flowers from wooden sticks, but they will have to help them a little with glue.
We will cover the paper flower theme with origami. Follow the link to find a diagram of origami tulips.
When the children get tired of creating, get dirty from head to toe with glue and cut with scissors even what could not be cut, invite them to draw spring flowers. Here are some examples of simple drawings, but dandelions and hyacinths really need to be drawn with your fingers. If you wish, you can turn these drawings into appliques by cutting out some elements for them from colored paper.
And finally - a spring tree with birds that have returned from warm lands. The trunk of the tree is a cardboard sleeve from toilet paper or paper towels. We cut out the crown, leaves and birds from colored cardboard, and we "sculpt" nests and flowers from corrugated paper, crumpling it up.
Now you have tons of Spring Kindergarten DIY ideas that any child can handle. Good luck and inspiration!
After celebrating International Women's Day, we begin to look forward to the Bright Day of Easter. And this makes it so joyful, because on the street you can hear drops and singing of birds, the sun shines brighter and longer. We are looking for cooking.
Meanwhile, parents again have to while away the evenings thinking over homework. During this period, in all kindergartens and schools, he is asked one thing - to make crafts on the spring theme. Usually, they do not specify and do not set a framework, so as not to limit the child's, but rather the parent's, flight of fantasy.
I am a parent myself and I also need to look for new simple and beautiful ideas every year in order to once again help the child to do something original and interesting. Therefore, today I will share my findings in this thread.
Paper and cardboard are one of the easiest materials for creating crafts and therefore they prefer to take them for creative activities in kindergartens. And this means that you and I can create something simple and.
First of all, we start thinking about what exactly to do. And the symbols of spring come to mind: butterflies, rain, flowers and a rainbow.
For example, these cute butterflies can be created from cardboard and toilet paper rolls. If you choose bright color combinations for them, you get a very elegant present.
Use this template for the wings.
The sleeve needs to be pasted over with decor. I'd rather buy a self-adhesive for this, it will turn out faster, and it is more convenient for children to work with it.
We decorate the wings to your liking using cardboard, braid, beads or ribbons. Felt in bright colors is also perfect for flowers here.
It is better to glue all the parts with hot glue, it will turn out more reliable. But, if you are working with children, then take PVA glue, as the safest and non-toxic.
I want to offer you a more complex craft. This is a voluminous lawn that looks very interesting. I remember that as a child, our generation was very fond of books with a 3D effect, when the pictures became three-dimensional, at that time I still did not understand at all how such a miracle could be done. Now I know the whole process!
The entire master class is shown in the photo in step-by-step action.
We need to bend the sheet in half and make cuts from the side of the fold, at a distance of 1 centimeter from each other. The length of the incision towards the center is reduced to 1 centimeter. Make each slit synchronously in a mirror image of the same size. Start with a side length of 5 centimeters.
Through one of our slots, bend inward, so you get the stems for the leaves. In general, the most difficult part is over. Now you can trim the edges of the sheet beautifully and stick to the base.
Start carving out flowers and leaves. The leaves will need to be bent inward lengthwise to achieve more realism.
Add butterflies or weed. It turns out a quick, but very original application.
And in spring the earth wakes up, the snow melts and the worms and pupae of the butterfly begin to hatch. Let's make a fun paper worm.
You need to make many circles of the same diameter. If you have special stamps, the whole process will be faster.
To get a lot of circles, you need to take a long strip of the paper you need, measure the width equal to the diameter of the circle and roll the strip into an accordion. Draw a contour and cut patterns along it.
You will get as many circles as you fold the strip.
Now we will fold each detail exactly in half and begin to shape the body. To do this, smear the lower part of the circle with glue and stick the next part on it.
And so on until the length of the calf seems to you the most optimal.
We fix the muzzle and antennae.
Cute spring suns can be made from toothpicks and sheets of different colors and given to all your girlfriends to friends.
And to make a bouquet for the teacher, molds for sweets and cupcakes are quite suitable. They are already on sale in different diameters and colors.
Of course, spring is associated not only with rain and sun, but also with a rainbow! How she cheers us up, and how children rejoice at her appearance in heaven. And it's very easy to make it.
You will need two identical parts of the cloud and seven stripes of the same width and length, in accordance with the color of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple (we memorized their sequence according to the sentence "Every hunter wants to know where the pheasant is sitting" where the beginning of the word suggests the letter the color starts with).
When you have glued all the strips, close the wrong side with the second piece.
Do you remember how you used to make garlands from paper rings? Now this is not relevant, children no longer decorate the walls with them for the holiday, but the technique itself remained. And it will make a great bouquet.
Or a fluffy cloud with rain.
I also really liked the idea of \u200b\u200ba voluminous snowdrop. After all, this is the most long-awaited messenger of spring.
You need to take three identical white stripes.
Make a drop out of each by gluing one end of the strip to the opposite. So the resulting three loops are then connected together.
And cover the gluing place with a semicircle of green paper.
This craft is very simple, preschoolers will definitely cope with it. But the strips need to be cut in advance so that they are even, because not all children of four or five years old can make a straight line with scissors.
Creative felt birds for school
Felt is a very popular material. It has many shades, which only attracts needlewomen to it even more. We are already with you from this material, and today I want to propose to you to make cute birds from felt and thread pom-poms. They look very decent, but are made in one hour.
Pompons are made very simply, I have already described the process of making them. You can wind the thread on a fork, or you can cut out special blanks from cardboard on which you will need to wind the thread.
And from the felt, matched to the birds, a tail and wings are cut out.
Well, now I invite you to watch the video, where the craftswoman shows in detail the entire process of creating birds.
By the way, you can take absolutely any template for crafts, and it can be a silhouette of any bird.
Original crafts with birds
Of course, with the arrival of spring, we meet rooks and swallows. Titmouses begin to sing louder and sparrows chirp. Therefore, we also consider cute birds to be symbols of spring. Basically, we choose from them swallows and rooks, which "fly to us in the canopy in the spring."
You can make original mobiles. Make the base from crossed branches. And make the birds themselves out of paper.
By the way, do not forget, because the birds tired of the long flight will want to eat, and you can show the children an excellent example of caring for our smaller brothers.
See what beauty is obtained using the quilling technique. In the springtime, tender and bright.
You need to attach the birds to the base very well; double-sided tape or hot glue is suitable for this.
Sticks can be painted, or you can leave their natural beauty and wood texture.
In the form of a suspension, a transparent fishing line is used to create the feeling that the birds are hovering and catching air currents.
Cotton clouds can also be replaced with flowers, stars or raindrops. It only depends on your imagination.
How to make a plasticine panel?
Plasticine perfectly develops the image and motor skills. And motor skills, as you know, help you better master the control of your body and start talking earlier. Therefore, it is so often found in the classroom of preschoolers. Now they roll cakes, then flagella. This is a very useful business.
See what kind of panel with willows can be made using several materials at hand.
You will need:
- green cardboard sheet,
- soft plasticine of three colors: brown, blue and light blue,
- cotton wool,
- pencil.
1. The outlines of a vase and branches are drawn on the cardboard.
2. The child tears off small parts from the plate and rolls them into flagella.
3. With blue flagella, begin to form a vase in a circle so that there are no gaps left.
4. Make the inside of the vase blue to add volume to the craft.
5. Roll up pieces of cotton wool in the shape of a capsule, wrap the edges with plasticine.
6. We make twigs from flagella, at the ends of which we will place cotton capsules.
All work is ready, with a four-year-old child, this process took thirty minutes. It all depends on the perseverance of your baby.
Master classes of crafts from natural materials
I was captivated by works made from the most ordinary things. Sometimes, in general, you consider them rubbish, but no, you can use them in creativity. In fact, I have always admired people who can see something unusual in simple things and use them for other purposes. Like, for example.
I liked the panel with flowers from egg trays and buttons.
To do this, cut off the cells from the tray.
We paint them with gouache on the inside and outside.
Inside, on double-sided tape, hot glue or liquid nails, we fix beautiful buttons of different sizes and colors.
And we form stems from shaggy wire. It is sold in both home and art stores. We will beautifully connect them with a ribbon.
First, we glue the buds, form a composition of buds, and only then glue the stems, hiding them inside under the flowers.
I also liked the idea of \u200b\u200busing disposable paper plates as a base.
We make both the sun and large flowers from them, cutting the edges to the middle and painting with paint. In general, there are a lot of ideas.
Of course, you can't pass by cute ladybugs made of plastic disposable spoons. The master class below shows how to make them.
Do you have a textile glove at home? Fine! Here's an idea for a garden decor. very cute chicks are obtained.
Buttons are now often used in applications. They are produced in an unusually wide range of colors, so you can choose products for any composition.
Of course, there are always grains at hand. Depending on the area of \u200b\u200bresidence, the culture that gives these nuclei is different, but the meaning remains the same.
Arrange the bird with buckwheat, rice, corn or peas. Let's take a closer look at how to do this.
first, let's decide on the materials. Take a sheet of cardboard, a thick sheet of paper that will be the base. We need PVA glue, scissors and grains.
On cardboard we sketch the shape of a bird and cut it out along the contour.
We glue the part on the base, which is completely smeared with glue.
You will get it as in the photo below.
Now we put the cereal on the not yet dried glue and check that it does not fall off. It may be necessary to apply a fresh layer of adhesive.
Try to place the nuclei very close to each other so that there are no gaps.
Another idea of \u200b\u200bworking from food. Check out this marvelous pasta panel. They lend themselves well to coloring and fixing A, thanks to the large number of shapes, a lot of interesting crafts can be made from them.
Continuing the pasta theme, check out this cute snail with a house made of shell pasta.
You can also create bright butterflies from scrap materials. For the wings, napkins or tulle are suitable, but the body is made of decorative tape, which is definitely on sale in all needlework stores.
also an idea for a craft that uses faux fur and paper.
A little higher, I described how to make an applique from cereals, but now look at what cute flowers can be formed from pumpkin seeds.
Take a sheet of thick green felt as a base. Seed snowdrops can be painted in different colors, from blue to yellow.
Volumetric spring paper bouquet
Of course, spring is the time of flowering, the first buds and young leaves. Let's make original bouquets to fill with the feeling of awakening life from hibernation.
We make such a bouquet from colored double-sided paper. We fold the sheet in half and mark along the entire length of the strip, 1 centimeter wide. You can take any length, but leave about 5-7 centimeters from the opposite edge.
We glue both edges.
We take the toilet paper sleeve and cut it off from the edge at a distance of 5 - 7 centimeters.
We coat with glue and wrap the resulting grass around the sleeve to the end.
It remains to glue the prepared flowers. You can use pom-poms or beads instead to make the bouquet look more unusual.
Another very simple version of the bouquet that preschoolers will like.
the base is an accordion. How to fold it is shown in the diagram. So, the entire sheet is bent into a fan, and the ends of the sheet are glued together with glue, forming such a semicircular shape.
And now you can start thinking about which buds will decorate your base. Can you cut out daisies, tulips or snowdrops? Absolutely any, even a fancy flower will be appropriate here.
Origami snowdrops
I have already written a lot in previous articles about this technique, and each time I am amazed at the many ideas that people embody in it. For example, what are the very first spring flowers? I think everyone will answer that these are snowdrops.
So we will make its buds using a simple origami technique.
You will need a square of white and not thick paper, with sides of 5 centimeters. Bend it in half, finding this line in the middle.
Then turn the tip down and the part itself becomes a bit like a trapezoid. And in one direction, which looks at you, bend the edges.
Run the tip of your nail along all the folds to lock the paper in that position.
Spring sun crochet
I didn't think that you could crochet something that resembles spring, but as soon as I saw this sun, I realized that this is a real spring craft.
The simplest product is knitted with single crochet. You can knit two identical sides for the same number of loops, and then sew from.This will be an easier option for beginners.
See what cute sunbeams you can create.
And I give a step-by-step description of the manufacture of another volumetric product. 
Here all the abbreviations that are used in the description are deciphered, so there will be no difficulties. The main thing is not to miscalculate and not to miss an extra loop.
Simple and quick craft from newspaper tubes
Newspaper straws allow many craftsmen to replace the vine and master the weaving technique. Indeed, this material is more accessible than the vine, which must first be found, then properly dried, and only then master the weaving process. Of course, newspaper products do not have such high wear resistance, but they look gorgeous.
Since this article is devoted specifically to children's crafts, I suggest watching a video, where a description of the sun with rays from newspaper tubes is given in great detail.
My dear ones, thank you for your attention and wish to spend every evening with the children, because they grow so quickly. And these evening gatherings for common creativity will definitely remain in your memory.
Spring is the time of awakening of nature and creative inspiration. It is at this wonderful time of the year that you and your children can create a huge number of interesting crafts from various materials. Crafts on the spring theme will delight both children and adults, and what options for creations exist, you can find out from the article below.
Craft "Flower meadow"
Flowers are one of the main joys of the springtime. After winter, you want so much warmth and bright colors, so why don't you and your children make a flower meadow out of colored paper? First you need to prepare the elements of future flowers, for this, cut the colored paper into squares of different sizes. For one plant, you will need 4 or more squares. The more luxuriant you want to get the flower, the more squares you will need!
Fold the square diagonally, then fold again. Now cut out the heart from this shape, but do not cut it to the base. Expanding the square, you will see beautiful flower petals. This Spring Craft requires the use of plastic tubes. Make a hole in the center of the flowers and insert into them along a tube, cutting off the free ends of the plastic (they will represent the stamens). Cut leaves out of green paper and attach to the flowers. Now make a clearing for them. Cut one strip off the egg grate and paint with green paint (spring-themed crafts often contain this shade). Then insert the ends of the tubes into the grate - the clearing has bloomed!
How to make herbs?
Herbs, or eco-humans, are sold in many stores, but kids love to do it. Take and fill them with pre-purchased sawdust and grass seeds. Tights should be packed tightly. Now, with the help of threads, shape the body parts of the eco-man. Highlight the arms, legs, nose, ears, and so on, so the "Spring" craft will become more expressive. Glue the eyes to the little man and dress him up in a bright suit. When grass appears on the head of the eco-man, "braid" it with the help of beautiful ribbons. Eco-people are not just children's crafts! Spring fantasies are useful for a child, they develop his imagination, and love for nature.
A bouquet of palms
A bouquet of palms can be made with your child, and then presented to your mother or grandmother. For creativity, you only need paper, gouache and a brush. This craft on the theme of "Spring" can be made even by a very young child (with the help of an adult, of course). The kid should dip his hand in the paint and press it against the paper. An interesting bouquet will be formed from colored palms. With the help of a brush, you need to paint the stems and leaves of the flowers. The craft "Spring bouquet" will really please your mother or grandmother. Also, the child can cut out prints of their palms from colored paper and stick them on cardboard.
Willow branches
The willow is a very beautiful spring tree! Any baby wants to make a willow twig for his mother himself. Such a craft on the theme of "Spring" assumes the presence of corrugated paper (white, brown and green), thin wire, twigs and cotton wool. Small squares must be cut out of white paper. In the center of the square, you need to put a piece of cotton wool and twist the paper with a wire. Attach the finished buds to the tree branches that you brought in advance. Then wrap the branches with brown and green corrugated paper. Craft "Spring Bouquet" is ready!
You just have to put the twigs in a vase and decorate the room with them. Older children may even crochet white buds.
Spring chicken
Spring is a wonderful time of the year! Paper crafts on this topic can be done endlessly. Creations from other material are no less interesting for children, invite them to make a spring chicken from an ordinary chicken egg. First, prepare the egg - make a hole in it with a needle and pour out the contents, rinse the shell. Now prepare a clearing for the chicken. Cut out a strip of green paper. Stick flowers on it and roll it into a circle so that you can put an egg in it. The clearing is ready! If you want this "Spring" craft to be more stable, then carefully make an incision in the upper part of the shell and pour sand inside. Glue the incision. Glue the scallop cut out of red paper to the notch. Attach yellow paper wings to the sides of the egg. Draw the eyes for the chicken and place them in the clearing.
Application "Dandelions"
Crafts "Spring has come" are very diverse in topics, materials and methods of execution. Children are very fond of working with natural materials, so why don't you give them such an opportunity? Prepare white dandelions with fluff, cardboard, glue and a brush, as well as pencils, felt-tip pens, or paints. Draw stems and leaves of flowers on cardboard. In the place where the flower is supposed to be located, you need to draw a circle with glue. Then put the fluff from the dandelions on the glue and press lightly. The application is ready! Children love to blow fluff directly onto the glue and admire the result.
Salted dough snowdrops
Crafts "Spring has come" can be quite unusual. Invite your child to create beautiful snowdrops from salt dough. Prepare the salted dough and roll it into a thin layer. Now take a plate of the size you want and use it to shape the dough into a round shape. This is the basis of your craft, its background. Then take plastic disposable spoons and cut off their handles. Paint the spoons with blue gouache or acrylic paint. Apply the paint in several layers, so your snowdrops will be brighter. Take the remaining salted dough, roll the sausages out of it and shape them into leaves and stalks. Gently lay out the finished parts on a plate of salted dough, lubricating the joints with water.
Now take the blue colored spoons and press them gently near the bases of the stems. The craft is not yet ready - it needs to be thoroughly dried. This can be done in two ways: in the oven on the lowest heat and in the fresh air. Be prepared for the salty dough to air dry for a long time. When the dough is completely dry, paint the petals and stems of the snowdrops with green gouache. Cover the entire craft with a layer of varnish.
In the spring, nature around is transformed and flourishes, delighting all the kids. At this pleasant time for people, you can create many crafts from any available materials with your children. The topics of crafts can be different: they can be dedicated to the holidays (March 8, Victory Day, Easter), or they can simply reflect the joy of the awakening of nature and the brightness of spring colors!
Flowers from different materials are the most common type of DIY crafts. Needlewomen use not only paper, but also plastic bottles, buttons, lids, and much more to turn a flower into a real work of art. If a child needs to bring a craft on the theme of spring to a kindergarten or school, then try to make flowers with him. Step-by-step master classes with photos will help you make beautiful spring flowers with a minimum of time and money.
Flowers from plastic bottles
Do not rush to throw out the bottle itself, as the upper part of it can turn into a convenient stand. To do this, make holes in two lids, into which insert the stem. Put the second cover on the stem from below so that the flower does not tilt and fall. Cut the leaves out of the bottle and glue them with hot glue.
Spring flowers from corks look creative. For their manufacture, you will have to pick up plugs of different diameters. Make holes in each of them so that you can pass the wire. Assemble a few caps, insert the wire, which then begin to twist in half. Attach the green leaf caps to the bottom of the wire. A large cover can be used as a stand.
Master class: tulips from plastic cups
All children love yoghurts, however, the cups are often thrown away, as drinking from them is not very convenient. We suggest you make flowers out of these cups.
You will need:
- three cups of different colors
- balloons of different colors
- scissors
- wooden stick
- glass jar.
Do not forget to make a hole in the bottom of the cups so that you can insert a stem-skewer into them. Leaves can also be made from a plastic cup or from some other material.
Insert your bouquet of tulips from plastic cups into a vase and present to mom or grandmother.
How to make snowdrops from scrap materials
Snowdrop leaves can be cut out of paper or a green plastic bottle. Stick them together with the wire into a large plasticine ball, which is then inserted into the cap from a plastic bottle. In a similar way, you can make an applique with a pumpkin seed snowdrop.
Spring flowers from pompons
