The lesson has come to an end, we say goodbye to the angel and the guests. Goodbye.

The Christmas angel (namely an angel, not an angel) is a traditionally popular theme for crafts. Children love it in different forms.

Two years ago, the guys and I made a three-dimensional angel out of paper. The work is simple to the point of primitiveness: cut out a printed figure from paper and glue it in one place. But children won’t be children if they don’t come up with something: round dances of painted angels decorated with appliques appeared, adult angels with angels in their arms... As a result, all the crafts became completely different.

At Christmas, you can draw an angel using colored pencils (or other materials) to get a rich, bright illustration for the brightest holiday of the year. You can use it to decorate a postcard or a chocolate bowl, because the drawing will turn out beautiful and neat for the kids who use this lesson. The drawing of a Christmas angel can be used as a coloring book or as part of a larger plot picture.

Christmas angel

We will need:

paper (depending on the purpose of the drawing),
materials for coloring (pencils, pastels, plasticine, etc.),
simple pencil, eraser.

Sequence of drawing an angel

We cut along the contour, glue pieces of bulk tape on the back side and apply to the front of the card. All that remains is to add congratulatory phrases and give it to the chosen person. Also, the finished drawing can not be cut out, but inserted into a small frame. Also suitable for participation in school and kindergarten competitions and exhibitions.

Cartoon "Angel" based on G. H. Andersen

Andersen wrote many wonderful and good fairy tales, with which we are not familiar. A cartoon based on one of them.

The site Non-standard children wishes you success!

Hello everyone, New Year's weekend is ending, but there are still many holidays ahead, so don't be discouraged, we'll soon celebrate the old one New Year, and Epiphany, and then spring is just around the corner! Even though Christmas is already behind you, you can have a group conversation with the children on a holiday theme and organize drawings on the theme of Christmas. After all, students perceive a minimum of information by hearing, but if you supplement the conversation with a presentation and then reinforce it with drawing, then the children will best assimilate the information.

First of all, I want to note that drawing on winter themes- this is a wide scope for imagination and the choice of original and non-standard techniques. Moreover, very young children, starting from 2 years old, can draw. Of course, we will work with the Christmas theme starting with the older group. But, for example, in UchMag there is interesting album for drawing and creativity of children 2-3 years old “Drawing with your palm and finger” . Eat similar manual and autumn themed.

I also recommend purchasing didactic cards to help the teacher, which will help conduct classes in drawing, modeling and appliqué for children of different ages and on topics of different seasons: for 3-4 years , 4-5 years , 5-6 years And 6-7 years . Please note that all sets are currently available in the online store at a good discount.

Post-holiday days are the most best time to get back to the Christmas theme. You can have a short conversation with the children, asking questions and telling those points that the children do not know about, supplementing your story with pictures from the presentation. After such a preparatory moment, drawing on the theme of Christmas in senior group the guys will receive it with enthusiasm.

Alternatively, you can tell children about the customs of caroling at Christmas, how children dressed up in sheepskin coats, sheep skins, put on masks and other attributes, sang carols under the windows and received sweets. It is the caroling scene that can be offered to children. Pupils of this age can already draw animals without any problems, so it will be interesting to depict children with masks.

You can draw a holy night, when the star of Bethlehem is burning in the sky, angels appear, and snowflakes can be decorated in the form of stamps made with a fir branch. All children, without exception, like the stamping technique, but they most likely have not drawn with a Christmas tree yet. Just after New Year's holidays Almost every kindergarten will have branches of live spruce, unless, of course, you install an artificial tree.

The “splatter” technique will also be relevant, especially if you cannot devote a lot of time to drawing. Then you can give the children figurines of angels, place them on a sheet of white paper, and decorate the rest of the sheet with blue splashes. Then you lift up the angel templates - and they are snow-white and will stand out on the sheet, like the leaf in the picture above.

Festive drawing in the preparatory group

For older children, you can take more complex plots, for example, decorating a nativity scene depicting a barn, animals and a baby in a manger. If the children have an image in the presentation in front of them, it will be much easier for them to draw the picture. Moreover, it is not necessary to register all participants in the holy action. It is enough to depict a stable and a baby in a manger, and the rest is up to the wishes and capabilities of the pupils.

Drawing on the theme of Christmas in the preparatory group can be supplemented original techniques so that children get a lot of positive emotions from the activity and imprint it in their memory.
All children today are familiar with the “grattage” technique, but not everyone is familiar with this particular name. Almost everyone has tried to work with engravings, when by scratching a black background one or another picture, white or colored, is obtained. There are many such sets in stationery stores, but they are relatively expensive and often you cannot buy them. This is what the finished engraving looks like.

But the basis for free drawing you can do it yourself and then draw whatever you want. As part of the lesson in kindergarten you can prepare the basis together with the children, or yourself for each pupil. Using wax and black paint. But it is important to take into account the fact that it will not be possible to work with this base on the same day - it must dry well.

The easiest way would be to draw (scratch) a church with domes or the same angels, but you can also winter night, or leave this question to the discretion of the children. Let them draw what they remember most from your conversation.

Or you can make something like a postcard by printing out a base in advance that you will need to color. This way you can issue a complete biblical story, children do not have to draw a complex picture, and they are always ready to color. And if there is a choice among paints, crayons, pencils or felt-tip pens, then this approach is doubly welcome.

Christmas is one of the biggest and brightest Christian holidays. I celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in all branches of Christianity, although the dates differ significantly:

Catholic Christmas is celebrated on December 25 (Gregorian calendar);
Orthodox (in Russia and many post-Soviet countries) - January 6 (according to the Julian calendar).

Many Protestant denominations, as well as some Orthodox Western countries This big holiday is also celebrated before the New Year. But, regardless of beliefs and affiliation with one denomination or another, all Christians on this day gather with their families in order to glorify the birth of the Savior. For those who cannot take part in a family dinner, in 2018 at Christmas you can give beautiful pictures, complementing them with warm, sincere wishes.

We have selected the most original Christmas cards for you:

In Russia, the tradition of giving beautiful Christmas pictures on Christmas Eve originated in the 90s. years XIX century. The first postcards were brought from England. And, although in Europe it has long been customary to decorate pictures with the inscription “Merry Christmas,” the first copies brought to Russia, for obvious reasons, were without words. Beautiful tradition People liked it and quickly caught on. Already in 1898, the first Christmas cards were issued in Russia based on paintings by St. Petersburg artists.

Although many years have passed, even today, in 2018, everyone is pleased to receive touching Christmas pictures depicting little Christ as a gift.

Christmas pictures with angels

An angel brought the good news to the Virgin Mary about the imminent birth of a baby. The angels also reported about a significant event and indicated the location of the newborn Savior. That is why angels are one of the main symbols of Christmas. In 2018, you can present your loved ones with a beautiful porcelain figurine for Christmas or give drawings depicting an angel.

European Christmas cards

During the Christmas holidays, Russians often go out to visit friends and acquaintances. In Europe, Christmas is a purely family holiday. For a festive dinner, it is customary to gather your nearest and dearest at the table. The constant symbol of home comfort and the solemn atmosphere of the most anticipated holiday for children is the hearth and the decorated spruce. That is why such Christmas drawings are popular in Europe.

Delicious pictures for Christmas

In all countries it is traditional to set the Christmas table. Since the holiday is preceded by a harsh fast, which ends with the appearance of the first star in the sky, housewives always try to surprise guests with delicious and beautifully decorated dishes.

There is even culinary tourism. Travelers are offered not only to spend Christmas in one of the European countries, but also to try traditional Christmas delicacies. Large European cities and capitals host events where you can buy a wide variety of themed treats.

That is why, postcards or pictures with a beautifully decorated table, presented for Christmas, are a wish that there will always be prosperity in the house in 2018.

Have you ever wondered which of all the holidays celebrated in the year can rightfully be called a family holiday? If not 100%, then definitely 80 percent will answer - Christmas. Indeed, this holiday really has a certain magical power, which brings all the dearest souls together for a beautiful, cozy, festive table. There is an atmosphere of calm and tranquility in the air. And the whole house is filled with love: the love of spouses, the love of parents and children. Children love this holiday very much, because a large number of loving hearts gather nearby and everyone strives to wrap you in warmth, hug you, and sometimes tickle you. On such a holiday, even adults are ready to believe in magic, in the fulfillment of desires, and are happy to accept unexpected and pleasant surprises. And such can only be surprises made with one’s own hand. And the best gifts for children will be drawings and crafts.

Drawings on the theme of Christmas for children, ideas step by step

Truly the most magical period in our lives is childhood. When you sincerely believe in miracles, you know that all your wishes and dreams will definitely come true. And Santa Claus is not a fiction. He's real, because you saw him in New Year's Eve, and while telling the poem, you knew that he would definitely give you what you wrote about in the letter. After all, if he came, then your letter was not lost, which means you were an obedient child.

Childhood is a little fairy tale in which you main character. And no matter what happens to you, you know that there are Chip and Dale who will come to the rescue in difficult times, and they are your dad and mom.

The main task of parents is to create this enchanting world, envelop it with warmth and love, create miracles and, of course, teach our children to do a little magic. And on the eve of the bright holiday of the Nativity of Christ, let us together with the children create a truly magical drawing that will definitely bring peace, comfort, warmth and love to our home. Or maybe a small gift for the Christmas tree.

For the little ones, I offer 3 ideas for creating a drawing.

Option #1:

The first idea is an angel girl, because... every kid knows who “la-la” is and is obviously confident in her kindness, friendliness, and sincerity. So let's get started!

We will need a sheet of paper, a pencil and an eraser. And also to color our angel you can use: colored pencils, crayons, paints. For very little ones, I would advise using finger paints. Thanks to them, the child will be in to a greater extent involved in the process, and working with finger paints contributes to the development of tactile sensations in children.

The finished drawing will look like this:

Let's start creating a drawing, of course, with our face. Our “la-li”’s hair is evenly parted. Therefore, we draw, so to speak, a blurry letter “L”, and under it a semicircle. And immediately draw the eyes, leaving small highlights inside.

Then we finish drawing the mouth and adding volume to the hair.

Let's start with the dress. We draw lines from the head. Next, draw a collar in the form of a flag under the head and sleeves for our dress. Then we draw the hands.

Next in line are the legs, and we mark the line of the shoes. And let's move on to the wing. We draw the wing curved at the top. The top of the wing is at eye level, the bottom reaches our girl’s waist. There's little left to do. Repeat the second wing in mirror image. And don't forget about the halo above your head. Our sweet angel girl is ready!

Any child will love this drawing.

Option No. 2:

The second idea is a Christmas stocking. More and more often we are seeing Western motifs in New Year and Christmas designs. So the idea for a Christmas stocking came up immediately. Many children know this wonderful sock, in which you can find a gift and also enjoy something tasty. Let's start creating it on paper.

When finished, our drawing will look like this:

Materials for coloring socks, as well as a color palette, you will ask your child for advice. After all, he knows better what color will bring good luck.

The first thing that appears on our piece of paper is two crooked sticks, which can remind us of two clubs. Then on our “sticks” we draw the cuffs of future socks.

Then we fill the socks with goodies and gifts. Now let’s finish drawing the bottom of each sock. Another magical masterpiece is ready!

Option #3:

And the third idea will be more complicated. Let's draw a friend - a Christmas bear cub, who is in a hurry to congratulate our baby on the bright holiday of Christmas.

The finished bear will look like this:

Let's start drawing our friend from his head. To do this, draw a circle, inside which we draw auxiliary lines. We draw a fur liner for our hat on top of our circle. And we draw ears.

Let's make our friend cute - draw eyes, nose, mouth and freckles. Then we finish drawing our cap and move on to the body. First, we draw a scarf from which the arms of our bear will come.

Nativity drawing for school, detail with photo

The month of December for schoolchildren is not only about finals test papers and pulling up their tails, but also being involved in the pre-holiday bustle: decorating classrooms, preparing for matinees and, of course, a lot of fakes and drawings.

During this period, during reading and literature lessons, children are required to become acquainted with passages from the Gospel, works of domestic and world literature, which touch on the themes of the Nativity of Christ. Thanks to this, children have a whole treasure trove of ideas that they will implement in labor and drawing lessons.

What can we most often observe on the paper of our little Picassos? Of course, everything that was recently read and heard about. Here are some photos from school exhibitions:

Look how wonderful, warm, kind, simple fairy tale drawings created by children. They exude a certain mystery, joy, happiness and love.

Having looked more closely at the creations of our children, we can name the main components that fill the drawings:

By right, we can give first place to the Star of Bethlehem and the Angel. These two components are visible in almost every picture. After all, the holiday of the Nativity of Christ is most often associated with some kind of salvation, lightness, which the Angel and the star bring to us.
The next place is occupied by images of the inhabitants of the Nativity scene. Children often depict baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph, as well as the wise men, oxen and sheep.
Children landscape painters love to depict a starry night, houses covered in snow with white smoke coming from the chimneys.
Of course, churches and temples occupy a special place in the drawings, as a symbol of faith, a guide between man and God.

What do our young artists like to work with? As you can see, the choice is huge. It all depends on the ability to work with this or that technique. To create a Christmas drawing you can use: a simple pencil, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, paints (watercolor or gouache). Many people add glitter to their designs, giving them shine and a bit of magic.

Drawing for the Nativity of Christ in pencil, step by step with photo

Let’s try to create a drawing for Christmas, for starters, in the usual way with a simple pencil. For this we will prepare a piece of paper. It is better to choose thicker paper. You will also need a simple pencil and eraser. And finally, let's grab some colored pencils to bring our masterpiece to life.

Let's decide on the main elements of our Christmas drawing. They will be: a sprig of spruce, as a symbol of the New Year, winter time; a candle is a symbol of sacrament, night; An angel is a symbol of protection and patronage.

First, we make a sketch and place the angel in the center. On the left side there was a spruce twig and a candle under the angel’s left hand. On background draw a semicircle. And we will cut the entire drawing into a rectangle. Part of the angel's wings and branches will extend beyond our drawing.
Next, let's move on to the details: we make the face more rounded, the hair is wavy, and we draw the wings. Below we create a sketch of the houses, but do not specify them too much. Because by design they are shrouded in fog.
We bring our angel to life, draw out the facial features, as well as the folds on his clothes. We erase our auxiliary lines. Let's take up colored pencils.

Let's take on yellow. We use it for the spruce branch, hair and draw a circle on the background. Then we will shade the face and hands of the angel with beige color. Let's paint the hair brown. To make the spruce branch as realistic as possible, use two shades of green. And using sharp strokes we create needles.

The background of our drawing will be blue. We paint the lower part and the circle with this color. By applying pressure on the pencil, we are trying to get a transition from dark blue to light blue. By using purple, sketch our lower landscape. We also use purple and blue to outline the outline of the wings. And we will shade our entire background with orange, yellow and a little red.

To create contrast, take a black pencil and draw contours and details. Our Christmas drawing is ready!

Drawings of the Nativity with paints, step by step with photos

We bring to your attention two options for Christmas drawings made with paints.

Option #1:

We can offer the first drawing to very little ones, where they can not only get their fingers dirty, but also put their entire palm to the drawing.

We will need: gouache, a simple pencil, felt-tip pens, a brush, a poke, a shaped cap from a felt-tip pen, a container for water and a container for diluting paint, as well as a sheet of paper pre-painted in blue.
We prepare a container with white paint and lower our baby’s hands. Then we place our handprints on the prepared sheet of paper, so that our prints resemble the wings of an angel. The fingers should point down and slightly to the sides.
Afterwards, add a little red to the container with white paint. This way we get a pink tint. We lower one palm. We place the print with pink paint between two white palms a little lower. Then we extend our palm a little and create a body for our angel.

Add a little yellow color to the container and draw the angel’s head. We do this with our baby's fingers. Create a head of hair on the head. To do this, take the cap of a felt-tip pen and use the round side to make prints.

For the halo and stars we use gold paint. We draw the halo with our finger, and to create a starry sky we use the cap, but with the curly side. And we use it to decorate the bottom of the angel’s clothing. Using felt-tip pens, draw the face.

Use the back of the tassel to decorate the top of the wings. We finish drawing the palms. AND brown paint draw a twig. Using green gouache and a brush, draw fluffy needles.

We depict a star next to the branch. And on the branches, using a poke, we place balls of blue and Pink colour. Our drawing is ready!

Option No. 2:

We will draw the next drawing with older children.

Required material and tools: gouache, A3 paper, nylon brushes (2, 3, 5).
We place our sheet of paper horizontally in front of us. From the very beginning, with a simple pencil we thinly outline the hill where the church will be located in the future. Using three colors: yellow, pink and blue, we depict the sky.

Blurring the boundaries between the three colors of our sky. To do this, rinse the brush. We remove excess water and just make it wet. Then we draw several times along the borders of the flowers. Using blue paint, we paint over our hill.

We draw the main walls of the church. And we finish drawing the roofs.

Draw the supports for the domes. We make the middle one in a lighter tone, the side ones in a dark shade of gray. Using yellow color. We draw domes.

Using thin lines we divide the wall of the church into parts. Then blur the lines a little on one edge to create a shadow effect. Drawing the future door.

We draw the windows of the church and the architectural belt. Using blue color, we enhance the shadows.

We make shadows on the doors and domes. We draw snow on the roof and domes of the church.

We draw snow on the windows, on the belt, on the slopes of the roofs and on the ledges of the walls. We enhance our shadows by applying thin contours.

Using a thin brush and orange color, draw crosses on the domes. Then use light strokes of white to create highlights. In the background we draw the outline of the grove in blue.

We fill the silhouette of the grove with a pale purple color, almost translucent. Using a thin brush we draw the branches of the grove. To do this, we take white, blue and cyan colors.

Using wide white lines we draw the silhouettes of future trees and shrubs in the foreground. We blur the outline along the inner edge. You should get a transparent effect.

We add lushness to the trees and bushes using the same line and blur technique that we used earlier. Using thin lines we draw the trunks and main branches of bushes and trees.

Next we draw small branches. Add white twigs and draw snowdrifts.

We add brightness to the snowdrifts by highlighting the top edge with blue and blurring it a little. Draw stars in the sky. We randomly place white dots.

We place a large star above the main dome. And careless strokes of yellow and white flowers draw the light coming from the star.

Our picture is ready! Truly we have created a masterpiece!

Nativity drawings for the competition, ideas with photos step by step

Every year on the eve of the holidays, children in kindergarten and school are invited to participate in creative competitions, where they can reveal their talents. Immediately before the holiday of the Nativity of Christ, most competitions are related to fine arts. Such events have a very positive effect on the development of the spiritual sphere of children’s activities. Contestants become more familiar with the history of the Christmas holiday, and also become familiar with the Christian faith.

Of course, to become a winner, the drawings must be created by yourself. Then it's not easy Nice picture, but a living real Christmas story of a little man. Of course, no one cancels the participation of parents. After all, the parents’ interest gives new strength to the baby, and he fantasizes on a given topic with greater involvement and great pleasure.

In your competition drawing you can depict a biblical story or a Christmas tale. Frequent symbols that are depicted on Christmas Eve are a Christmas angel, a Christmas tree, bells, a temple, and Christmas heroes. You can draw Christmas pictures with a pencil, paints, markers, crayons. Many children win the hearts of spectators with their works made with grain, sand or batik technique. However, not everyone can do such work and require a very long training.

We suggest trying to create several options for the Christmas drawing competition. Each option will be of varying difficulty and is designed for a specific age of the contestant.

Option #1:

We can suggest repeating the first option to the youngest participants of the competition. This drawing carries one of the symbols of the holiday - bells. After all, this is already some kind of established tradition - the ringing of bells on Christmas Eve.

To begin with, we will make sketches on a piece of paper. Let's draw two ovals that are inclined towards each other. Thanks to the auxiliary lines, we will mark the approximate size of our bells, their top and bottom. Then give the future shape with a bell and sketch out the outline of the bow.

Next, we sketch out the foliage and ribbons of our bow. We will delete all the auxiliary lines later and the drawing will become more expressive. We give a clear shape to the bells, draw in detail the foliage and bow. Let's make an inscription.

We erase all auxiliary lines. And we can start coloring. The bow is symbolically done in red, and the foliage in green.

And the final touch remains - to paint the bells themselves. Our drawing is ready! IN this option These colors were used, you can color them at your discretion.

Option No. 2:

The following idea can be proposed for middle school children. Traditionally, on the eve of such a holiday, children get acquainted with the biblical story of Christmas. Therefore, it will be symbolic to draw one of the scenes.

Symbolically, first we make sketches of the future drawing. We draw an outline in the center of a cradle with a baby and a donkey standing next to it.

We gradually move on to the details of the room, to the baby’s crib, and then we start coloring the animals. You can do this with any colors you like. Our final result looks like this:

Option #3:

The third idea, in my opinion, is one of the most difficult. Therefore, it can be suggested for older children. We will create with you not just a drawing, but a real Christmas card. For this we will need paper for pastels and watercolor pencils, a picture of Kazanskaya prepared in advance Mother of God and baby watercolor pencils, white gouache, brushes, glue.

The picture of the Kazan Mother of God was not chosen by chance, but as a symbol of Christmas.

At the first stage, we will need to glue our prepared picture in the upper left corner of the future postcard. Next, at the bottom left, we begin to draw the bells.

Draw a bow on the bells and start drawing the church. We depict domes.

Using white gouache, apply snow with a hard brush. Let's make an inscription.

This is such a wonderful Christmas card!

Let the weather outside your window inspire you to create beautiful paintings! Let this winter and the upcoming holidays become a source of creativity! We hope that the ideas we have proposed will help you, and you will be able to submit excellent works to your school and kindergarten competitions!
