Crafts for kindergarten on a circus theme. A selection of gaming material on the theme “Circus

Hello, friends! Have you already gone to the circus with your baby? Last week we took Veronica to the circus for the first time. And in this regard, I decided to conduct a thematic lesson for her on the theme of the circus. Veronica, like all children, loves animals, so the lesson turned out to be interesting and fun. If your child is also interested in the topic of animals, then read the article “Thematic lesson “Animals on the farm.”

Thematic lesson "Circus"

Let's watch the presentation “For children about the circus”:

Speech development

After watching the presentation, discuss with your child what he liked about it. If you have already been to the circus, remember what you saw there.

Read the poem and discuss it.

Circus

Z.Toropchina

There's another attraction at the circus.

Tigers and an elephant perform

Acrobats and athletes...

Buy tickets quickly!

Rare talents await you -

Circus performers and musicians.

Here the artists are animals, people,

And no one will be bored!..

There is a bright light in the arena,

There are no empty seats in the hall.

The clown came out - what fun!

Everyone is dying of laughter.

The acrobat is so beautiful!

But it's dangerous under the dome,

And upside down too.

The spectator froze, barely alive.

Fleet horses

Dashingly rushing around the site,

And on them are horsemen-aces

They do crazy things.

Here's a riddle for people -

Magician and sorcerer:

Showed me an empty bag -

In a moment there is a cockerel!

All teams deftly, quickly

Performed by lion artists,

Monkeys, tigers, cats...

Let's clap everyone's hands

For the pleasant excitement,

For talent and skill!..

Circus is everywhere, all over the planet

Adults and children love it!

Fine motor skills

The little one and I did it!

Since our family has an ingrained tradition of remembering everything at the last moment, this case was no exception. My son Vadik told me about the assignment exactly one day before it was due. There was nowhere to go - I had to get to work!

Tools and materials

The model of the city does not require any extra-natural materials, and a normal student should have everything available:

  1. Ruler
  2. Colored paper + colored cardboard
  3. Colour pencils
  4. Scissors
  5. Brushes + paints (we used gouache)
  6. Glue
  7. A4 paper

How to make a city layout

We thought about it a little and decided that since time was running out, we would make a road + a couple of buildings + some kind of transport. We decided - we do it.


We took a piece of thick cardboard, cut out a 40 by 30 cm rectangle from it. Then we pasted it on one side with A4 office paper.


Having carefully trimmed the edges, we got a base for the layout, which is ready for painting.


They drew an impromptu road



The next step was to build a high-rise building. I don’t give explicit dimensions, since everything was done by eye...


Before gluing the building together I decorated it


This is what happened after gluing


We cut the back of the building to size, then glued it on and also painted it.

Children's city layout

Sorry friends.

Due to the fact that time was really pressing, the shooting had to be postponed. The building alone took almost 2 hours.

The next step was a bus. They did it according to the same principle as the building - they glued it together and painted it. Balconies were added to the building and the inscription “shop” was attached to the bottom.

They built a stop with a sign and made several trees.

The final step was gluing all the products onto the base. To make it stick better in some places I had to use tape :)

And here is the result!


And further…


The city model with your own hands is ready!

Thank you for watching!

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 offshore 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, a 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.

In today’s article I would like to introduce children and their parents to a funny clown - an indispensable “merry man” in the circus, which we will make with our own hands together.

This little man in the arena is able to make any spectator, both old and young, laugh, play the accordion, sing a funny song, and show many original tricks. And that’s why today’s article is on the topic of clown applique.



After reading the detailed instructions and following each step step by step, it will not be difficult for even a novice master.

This master class will involve geometric shapes, which will allow the child to develop his knowledge by studying shape and color, and diagrams and photos will help to visually understand how to make a paper craft. Little children in the junior group of kindergarten will make appliqués using the prepared parts, and children in the middle group will be able to cut out the components according to the template.

To make a clown applique, prepare:

  • templates of geometric shapes;
  • thick cardboard - base;
  • colored paper;
  • scissors;
  • a tube of paper glue (PVA is fine).



Attaching the templates to colored paper, cut out:

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.

Colored paper clown

If your child liked this master class and he admires this fun, then another idea is proposed below.

Color applique of a clown made from candy wrappers

Circus is joy, kindness, a lot of positive emotions and good mood. Who is the most fun and funny in the arena? You guessed it - a clown. Children fell in love with this character, and therefore not only in kindergarten you can get into a world where there are jokes and laughter; make a funny clown at home yourself.

Step-by-step photo instructions for the “Clown” applique

The MK presented below is done by children in the senior group of kindergarten as it is a little more complicated than the previous one.

Our funny clown is ready.

In this lesson we will look at how to make a clown from scrap materials - from candy wrappers. To do this, you need to collect a lot of bright candy wrappers in advance, you will also need free time and desire.

Make a candy clown with care and please your loved ones with a new application, give moments of good mood to everyone who looks at it. So, let's start watching the video.

Templates and stencils for the “Clown” applique


















Video: Making a circus out of paper

We invite you to plunge into the world of jokes and laughter and feel the circus atmosphere by completing interesting crafts on the theme: “Cheerful Clown.” We will create this funny little man using the appliqué technique from various materials: fabric, candy wrappers and paper.

We have prepared lessons of varying complexity that are suitable for children of all ages. Each master class contains step-by-step instructions with a detailed description of the entire creative process, which will help novice craftsmen make original masterpieces with their own hands.


You need to prepare:

  • candy wrappers;
  • colored cardboard;
  • White paper;
  • scissors;
  • pencil;
  • markers;
  • glue.

To create this application you will have to work a lot with scissors, so it may be difficult for a small child to complete the task on his own and he will need the help of adults.

We cut out the boots according to the template.


We cut off the corners of the candy wrapper. This will give you the pants and sleeves. Draw a face on a white sheet of paper and cut it out along the outline. Twist the wrapper so that you get a bow. Glue it onto the cardboard along with the rest of the made parts.


Draw and cut out a clown hat, eyes, nose, pompom and balls, as in the photo. We add them to the picture. Draw hair and a smile. Glue the remaining parts and our fun craft is complete.

If desired, change the composition by adding different circus elements (ball, stand, rings).

Clown made of geometric shapes

For work we will need:

  • colored paper;
  • cardboard (for the base);
  • a simple pencil;
  • markers;
  • stencil ruler;
  • scissors and glue.

We prepare the necessary preparations:

  • circles (multi-colored) – 6 pieces (for the face and balls);
  • triangles – 5 pcs. (for pants, sleeves and cap);
  • asterisk (for collar);
  • ovals - two (for boots and hands).

Let's get to work.

We make the main details of the application. Use a special ruler with geometric shapes for this:

Place it on the base of the required color and outline the shapes with a pencil. Cut out the blanks with scissors. Cut one oval in half - these will be the shoes. From the second half we will need, we will also cut it into two - hands. Lay out the parts on cardboard and secure with glue. Draw the face - eyes, nose and mouth.
The picture is ready.

Clown made of colored paper

To create an application you will need the following templates:

You can draw them or print them on a printer.

Also prepare:

  • paper of different colors;
  • black marker;
  • PVA glue;
  • scissors.

Technique: make applique details from the colored base. Glue the hair to the head:


We put on the clown's hat (using glue). We glue the elements of the face (eyes, nose, eyebrows, cheeks, mouth). Draw ears, eyes and a smile with a marker:


Volumetric applique with a clown

We will need the following tools and materials:

  • paper (velvety and corrugated);
  • scissors;
  • pencil and ruler;
  • office glue.

First, cut out a circle from yellow colored paper - the head of a clown. Create eyes from white and black. To make hair blanks, cut colored corrugated paper into strips (length – 12–14 cm, width – 6–8 cm). Then screw them onto a pencil. Squeeze like an accordion. Roll the resulting tube into a donut and secure the edge with glue. Your hair should look like this.


We make the bow in a similar way, but we cut the strips wider and longer. Glue together two multi-colored curls in the shape of a figure eight. Cut out a small star from paper and decorate the butterfly with it. We assemble a face from these parts, gluing them with glue. And we get this result:


Decorate the clown as you wish. They make different types of hair, for example, from a washcloth, from threads and paper bows, from accordion-folded paper or from puzzles.
