Autumn crafts
Children's (from vegetables) creations are sometimes asked by educators to bring at the end of summer. By this time, a new crop is ripening, and many ideas appear that can inspire the guys. Arriving from the cottage, parents and children can bring eggplants grown personally. You can buy them in the store. This is a great material for creativity. You will learn how to make a penguin right now.
To make it stable, cut off the evenly rounded end of the eggplant. Place the fruit on its flat surface with the green cap up. Now he will turn into the face of a charming penguin. If a tail remains in this place, do not cut it, because it looks so much like the nose of a polar bird. Eyes can be made from beads. Cut the dark skin in front of the figure so that the white belly of the penguin becomes visible.
To make small wings of a polar bird, cut the skin from both sides from below and from the sides, slightly lift it up.

Cut 2 circles from raw or boiled carrots, stick them on the top of the head - these are the ears, and turn a rectangular block into a nose. Take three thin pasta, pierce them under the nose. These are the funny tendrils of a mouse. Only they and the peel are not edible, everything else is suitable for food. Such characters will diversify the table and cheer the household.
Children's crafts on the theme "Vegetables"
It is interesting to turn some vegetables into others. Disguise the physalis as cabbage and pumpkin, making a beautiful panel. The basis for it can serve as a plain decorative pillow. If you don’t have one, it can be easily sewn from brown velvet, layered with foam rubber or stuffed with synthetic winterizer.
In the fall, the physalis ripens into orange lanterns. Pick three fruits in advance while they are still green. For creativity you will need the same amount of orange. From the green paper, cut the border that will be the outer leaves for the cabbage. Put the unripe physalis inside, glue the blank on the pillow. Place two more heads of cabbage in the same way. Orange physalis will become a pumpkin, cut out leaves from green paper or fabric, glue them and small pumpkins to the base. You can decorate the edges of the pillow with a cloth of other colors, making an applique on the theme of vegetables.
There are many ideas for such crafts. So, you can turn a banana into a dog, a daikon or a carrot into a rat, and a fresh cucumber into a crocodile. The main thing is to learn to notice the features of natural material, so that it arouses imagination and helps to develop the creative abilities of children.
