Parents and children can not only oppose each other as representatives of different generations, but also very fruitfully cooperate. For example, mastering together something original and interesting.
Cones, twigs, paperLet's say you walked around the park and found several cones, chestnuts. Take them home, at the same time picking up branches from the Christmas tree (there are a lot of them lying near the tree - birds nip them off or the wind breaks off), twigs and generally such “garbage” that may be useful to you. With all of the above, you will get excellent DIY crafts from improvised material. And when you come home, carefully study the "catch". For example, you can make a fragment of a winter or summer forest. Let us dwell on the first option. Take a piece of cardboard of arbitrary shape. If the front side is white, give it a slight blueness with paints or a pencil. It will be snowing. And if the cardboard is yellow or brown - stick the album sheet and paint. The basis for your DIY do-it-yourself material is ready. Now pick up the white corks from the plastic bottles. Hole them in the middle and insert the branches of the trees with the base down. It will be trees. Coat the corks along the edge with glue “Moment” or PVA and stick in any order on the base. You will get Christmas trees in a snowdrift. Now we make a forester out of cones. To do this, insert the rods in place of the hands (turn the cone upside down), colorize the cap. You can draw a face. Now we also attach it to the cardboard. Either with the help of the same cork, or carefully glue the ends of the conical tip with glue and press it until they grasp the paper.
And the last element of this do-it-yourself craft from improvised material is to make a basket for a forester out of chestnut. To do this, carefully cut the round part with a sharp knife twice - there will be a handle. Carefully hollow out the pulp so as not to tear the “handle”. There is a basket. Stick it on. All, one version of the do-it-yourself crafts from the improvised material you made.
Funny pigletsTo prepare an original surprise for your relatives or children, you can really take any improvised material. Let's say eggshell. It is easy to make funny piglets out of it. Only condition: carefully pour the contents of the shell through a small hole so that the “container” itself remains intact. So, we will prepare 3 empty shells - they will make excellent children's crafts.
Of the materials at hand that we can use, this is perhaps the most fragile. But also original. So, release the contents to a plate. Pour hot water through a hole with soap or dishwashing gel, shake to rinse the walls of the remaining egg. Now insert a bunch of threads into the hole - this is the tail. Paint the shell itself with pink lacquer. And on the sharp end, draw a funny face. And so three times. Naf-Naf, Nif-Nif and Nuf-Nuf, right? Make them plasticine legs. Here are such crafts from improvised materials, the photos of which you see, are made quite easily and quickly, only your desire and imagination are important.
A little more creativity
Do you know how to mint from a tin tube of cream or toothpaste? Cut both ends at the container, cut along, open it. Wash, straighten. Then, with a pencil, apply the drawing from the side of the “cover” and interrupt it with a knitting needle. On the shiny inner "metal" side you get a chased pattern. Now make a frame out of cardboard and insert your “picture” into it. You can give it to someone or keep it as a keepsake.
