Fabric applique “Clown”

In this type of needlework there are many different techniques for performing crafts. In this MK we will consider the technology of making a clown applique from pieces of fabric. It will also not be difficult for children if adults help them understand the step-by-step description of the work. So, in the preparatory group, children were asked to work with an appliqué made of fabric, pieces of which will be glued to a sheet of cardboard. In addition, children's crafts will look bright and funny if the clown himself is painted. Interesting additions will be applique elements made of fabric, threads or other decorative elements. Another option for clown applique is to apply the contours of the design to a fabric base and secure the details using satin stitches. In this master class we offer several interesting ideas. Pictures can be printed on a printer and then cut out as a stencil.

Templates and stencils for the “Clown” applique


















Video: Making a circus out of paper

Today we are getting acquainted not just with designer paper dolls, but with expressive circus characters - tents, so we can make them ourselves. And also, the limbs of these paper dolls are movable - they are made on hinges, this gives them more advantages in the game, which children will certainly like.

The images of these characters are as expressive as they are simple – they consist of simple shapes and are somewhat reminiscent of children’s drawings. Therefore, it will not be difficult to draw similar dolls or come up with your own without having any experience in drawing. After all, toys made with your own hands are much more interesting, especially if you make them together with children. And then you can arrange a real puppet theater or circus, the main characters of which will be your paper dolls and put on an exciting performance - what could be more interesting and entertaining for children? There can be many themes for performances, as well as funny characters. Brave acrobats and graceful dancers, a mighty strongman and a brave trainer with his amazing animals: an elephant and a bear. And, of course: - All evening in the arena! The funniest clown in the world!

The kids will definitely like this idea, because they love the circus so much.

How to make funny paper dolls

The idea is interesting and not very difficult to implement. Children will be happy to take part in the idea. With a little help from adults, everything will work out. Let's figure out what might be useful for creating a doll from cardboard.

- we will need thick cardboard, from which we will make dolls;
- colored pencils;
- pieces of colored paper or maybe fabric;
- scissors;
- glue;
- hole punch;
- metal or plastic rivets;
- hammer;
- the board on which we will work.

We draw separately the torso and those limbs that will be movable, with small allowances for attachment to the torso. You can let your child color the characters before cutting them out.

Then we cut out the component parts of our paper dolls. We punch holes in them, at the places where the moving parts are attached, using a hole punch with a hole diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the rivet. Using a hammer on a board, we connect the parts of our homemade articulated dolls and install rivets in the resulting holes. The result is funny articulated dolls in which all joints bend.

Or, before cutting out, we decorate them with colored paper or pieces of fabric, creating details of circus costumes, gluing elegant clothes onto our characters.

And then we cut out and install the rivets. By the way, you can fasten the hinges with a needle and thread in one hole and fix the loops on both sides with beads, one thing at a time.

The resulting paper dolls are ready to participate in the performance.

What is a circus without trained animals? Cut out the elephant details from blue cardboard. Note that almost all of them are irregular oval in shape. Isn’t it really that complicated? We connect them all using rivets or beads, decorate our elephant with a beautiful blanket and the mighty beast is ready to perform.

Master class on making the “Arctic” model.

Ivanova Elena Vladimirovna, teacher of MBDOU “Kindergarten No. 34”, Ivanovo
Description: The master class will be of interest to educators, additional education teachers, and caring parents.
The “Arctic” layout is a box of materials. All components of the layout are mobile. Children fill it with content as they wish. Playing with it promotes the development of creative thinking and the development of the makings of a landscape designer.
Purpose: design of a nature center (educational area - cognitive development), use as a visual and didactic aid, for independent games.
Target:
Making the “Arctic” model
Tasks:
- expand children’s understanding of different continents;
- to develop an interest in the animal world and the peculiarities of the climatic conditions of the Arctic;
- create conditions for the development of cognitive and research activities of children.

Arctic(from the Greek - “ursa”, “located under the constellation Ursa Major”, “northern”) - a single physical-geographical region of the Earth adjacent to the North Pole and including the outskirts of the continents of Eurasia and North America, almost the entire Arctic Ocean with islands ( except the coastal islands of Norway), as well as adjacent parts of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
The Arctic is home to a number of unique animals: musk ox, wild reindeer, bighorn sheep, polar bear, arctic fox and wolf. The polar bear is a predator; it prefers to hunt sea animals from the ice. Cold regions are home to many species of birds and marine life. The Arctic seas are home to seals, walruses, as well as several species of cetaceans: baleen whales, narwhals, killer whales and beluga whales. In addition, wolverines, stoats and long-tailed ground squirrels live in the Arctic. (From the Internet)

Materials for work:
A lid from a box of copier paper, the remains of light blue embossed wallpaper, colored paper, cardboard, 2 pictures depicting Arctic nature, 2 files, scissors, glue, a simple pencil, ruler, double-sided tape, white foam rubber, animal figurines .



Safety precautions when working with scissors:

1) Work with well-adjusted and sharpened scissors.
2) Place the scissors with the rings facing you and the closed blades away from you.
3) Do not leave cutting tools open.
4) Don't leave tools on the edge of the table.
5) Watch the movements of the blades while cutting, take care of the fingers of your left hand.
6) Pass the scissors only closed, rings first;
7) Do not play with cutting instruments, do not bring them to your face.
8) Use scissors only at the table.

Work process:

1. Measure strips of wallpaper equal to the sides of the cover in width, length, and height. Cut a rectangle equal to the bottom of the box.


2. Cover the sides of the box and glue a rectangle to the bottom.


3. Cut out the letters A, P, K, T, I using a stencil. (The stencil is larger than A4 format, I had to scan it 2 times, otherwise the edges would not fit).



4. Trace along the outline on blue paper and cut out.


5. Glue the letters onto the box where the front will be. You can decorate with a picture or sticker based on the theme.


6. Print pictures or photographs of Arctic landscapes. I suggest these:



7. Seal them with cardboard and put them in a file to preserve their appearance. If possible, you can laminate it.


8. Stick pieces of double-sided tape on both sides along the length and width.


9. Glue the pictures on these sides.


10. Cut two pieces of arbitrary size and shape from foam rubber. “Pluck” them with scissors for relief. These will be ice floes and pieces of ice.


11. Place them in a box in any shape.


12. Place animals.




Children play with great pleasure with such models, look at animals, draw and sculpt new “residents”. And if questions arise during the game, we look for answers in encyclopedias.
