After a long winter, the bright sun, sonorous singing of birds, fresh green grass and the first flowers bring special joy. There are new forces for creativity. Children begin to bring crafts to the kindergarten, spring presents many new topics.
The sun
Bright sun - the first association with spring. Of course, the crafts "Spring has come", made with your own hands, can not do without bright rays. The sun not only occupies a central place in children's spring drawings and applications, but can also become an independent object.
You can decorate the window with the sun made of paper, and instead of rays, children's hands will look great. Attach long wooden clothespins to an unnecessary disk, paint them yellow - and the Spring is coming craft is ready.
Salty dough is an indispensable material for children's creativity. Making it is very simple - you need a glass of flour, half a glass of fine salt and about 100-120 ml of water. You can immediately add yellow paint to the dough or paint the craft after drying (after a few days), decorate it with patterns and a pretty face. Glue a magnet to the sun, attach it to the refrigerator, and it will illuminate your kitchen for a long time.
Flowers
Delicate snowdrops, fragrant lilies of the valley, bright yellow dandelions on the green grass, fluffy willow - all this is inseparably connected with spring, and crafts by spring created with their own hands can not do without these images.
Flowers of snowdrops can be folded using the origami technique, and lilies of the valley can be imitated using polystyrene balls or glue small cones of white paper. Draw a vase, brown branches, stick lumps of soft white cotton wool - you get a bunch of willow.
From thinly cut yellow paper or thread you get a beautiful dandelion. Children's crafts on the theme of "Spring" can be made in the form of cards from green cardboard, decorated with voluminous multi-colored paper flowers. Volumetric flowers can be made of plasticine or salt dough.
You can make a whole basket of flowers. The container can be made using the origami technique, weaved it from paper tubes or simply folded in the shape of a box. It remains to fill the basket with flowers made of paper, satin ribbons or nylon.
Trees
Blooming apple trees and cherries delight our sight in the spring. Children's crafts on the theme of "Spring" infrequently depict trees in bloom. Make them easy, but such things look unusual and sophisticated. Draw a thin cherry twig on paper, and then white or pink flowers with your fingers or the bottom of a small plastic bottle. Fragile paper flowers look original on real or twigs made of wire and thread.
Butterflies
Variegated butterflies will revive any picture with flowers. Crafts on the theme “Spring has come” are often decorated with these natural flowers. Lightweight paper butterflies can be hung on threads under the ceiling. They can be made using the origami technique from colored paper, cut out butterflies with paints or apply a pattern using appliqués.
Beautiful crafts by spring do it yourself, if you use hard wire and nylon. Using these materials you can make very gentle and airy butterflies. A butterfly can be decorated with multi-colored beads, buttons and beads.
ladybugs
In May, ladybugs begin to appear. Children simply adore them, and it’s very simple to make a craft in the form of this funny bug. The smallest can draw a ladybug using a foot print. The heel is covered with black paint, and the rest of the foot is red. Now you need to make a fingerprint and draw black peas, antennae and paws with your finger.
To make a volume application, fold a sheet of red colored paper several times, cut out the body of the beetle, attach peas and antennae. Now it can be glued to a green leaf.
Children love to collect pebbles, and this can be used. Round stones can be painted like a ladybug with gouache or other colors.
Birds
Crafts "Spring has come" with your own hands can be done using images of birds. Even from simple silhouettes of swallows on a white background, it blows in the spring. Colorful birds can be made from colorful wrapping paper. If several birds are folded using a simple origami scheme, they can be hung on branches with a thin fishing line.
Bare trees in the garden can be decorated with fun paper birds, decorated with patterns, glitters, feathers. Beautiful crafts on the theme of "Spring" can be made in the form of cute birds using the quilling technique.
Small figures of birds can be molded out of salt dough, dried, painted with gouache, varnished. Then cut a few twigs and hang the birds with threads or thin ribbons. Do not forget to make neat holes in the figures for the ropes before the dough dries.
Crafts for spring with their own hands can be made of woolen threads for knitting. From white, black, blue, red and yellow bunches you can make small bright birds, blue and bullfinches, and from gray and brown you will get sparrows, just like real ones. All kinds of felt figures are now popular. Such crafts on the theme "Spring has come" can be performed even by a beginner.
Birdhouses
In winter, children make feeders and feed birds in their courtyards and kindergartens, and in early spring it is time to meet starlings and prepare houses for them. This topic can be reflected in the manufacture of crafts for the spring contest in kindergarten.
On a large piece of paper, draw a large tree decorated with colored patterns. On its branches, place several voluminous birdhouses of colored paper and their inhabitants, decorate the picture with satin ribbons, flowers.
Birdhouse can be made of thick cardboard, decorate it with multi-colored buttons, paper flowers. Inside, you can put a small nest with eggs and a bird made of cloth or wool.
Herbalists
Fresh green grass is an indispensable symbol of spring. You can make your own lawn in a flower pot, but it is much more interesting to make your own grass. This craft can be made using unnecessary nylon stockings, earth and wheat or grass seeds.
Grass seeds need to be poured into a stocking, cover the substrate with the top and tie. As a filler, you can use earth, a substrate for flowers, sawdust and even cotton wool (in this case, it is better to sprinkle a small layer of earth first). The workpiece can be made in the form of an animal, such as a hedgehog, or simply in the form of a human head with a funny mug.
In order for the grass to sprout, the crafts need to be watered. When she grew long enough, you can arm yourself with scissors and make the man an original hairstyle.
Ships
Brooks murmur, and another symbol of spring days is the boats. Folding them out of plain white paper is boring. It is more interesting to decorate such crafts in the spring with your own hands using different materials, put passengers in them, and attach a mast with a sail.
Original boats can be made from wine corks. A sail for such a vessel is made of fabric, linen or a rough burlap is better. From a walnut shell, a toothpick and candy wrapper from candy, you can also make a small boat.
Another idea for a craft on the theme of "Spring" - volumetric application. You can depict a stream, sky, clouds and the bow of a ship with a sail, or place a folded boat on a sheet of blue paper.
Easter crafts
Easter is associated with spring, awakening, Easter chickens and bunnies, colored eggs. On the eve of the holiday, I just want to decorate the house with cute little things made by myself.
You can decorate not only real eggs or empty shells, but also make them from salt dough, plasticine, sew them from fabric or just cut them out of paper. Patterns can be very different: flowers, multi-colored stripes, birds and biblical subjects. For decoration, use not only paints and paper, but also fabrics, ribbons, and beads.
It is easy to make beautiful spring birds out of empty shells by gluing wings, ponytails and beaks from colored paper to them. This can be chickens with hens, and exotic birds. The shell is suitable for the manufacture of bunnies - draw a muzzle, glue long ears and paws on the strings.
Such original crafts, made with your own hands, will not only help develop the imagination of your child, but also bring a piece of spring mood to your home. They can also be used at the spring crafts competition in kindergarten.
