Step 3. Now straighten your workpiece and begin gluing the ends of the strips to the center fold line one by one, moving from bottom to top.
Step 4. Once you have secured all the stripes, fold and glue the bottom corner of the tree to the top. Further in the same place, but with reverse side, glue a small rectangle (tree trunk) cut out of brown paper.
Step 5. Decorate the tree with colorful beads, sparkles, buttons and other decor. If you wish, you can make several of these trees, glue loops to them, and then assemble a garland or decorate a real tree with crafts.
Idea 5. Snow globe... or rather a jar
Now we propose to make a real souvenir with your own hands - a variation of a snow globe. True, it will be made from ordinary glass jar. The child can give the craft to a loved one, present it at a winter crafts competition, or simply leave it on the shelf for beauty.
What you need:

Step 3. Trace the bottom of the jar directly onto the foam, then use a knife to cut the resulting circle out of it. This circle will become the basis for the figures.
Step 4. Glue your figures to the foam circle, then glue the resulting composition to the bottom of the jar.
Step 5. Pour artificial or homemade snow into the jar, close it with a lid with snowflakes and enjoy the view of a winter fairy tale.
Idea 6. New Year card
There are never enough New Year cards, so we suggest making a few together with your child.
What you need:
- A sheet of white paper;
- A sheet of colored paper;
- Scissors;
- Glue stick;
- Markers.
How to do it:
Step 1. Fold a sheet of white accordion paper three times so that each top accordion layer is smaller in width than the previous one.
Step 2. Straighten your accordion, cut the sheet diagonally and slightly in waves as shown in the photo above, then assemble the accordion again. You have the slope of a snow-covered mountain.
Step 3. Now take a sheet of colored paper, glue the blank onto it and cut off the excess. Hooray! The postcard is almost ready.
Step 4. Decorate the mountain with Christmas trees, draw snowmen and skiers and finally sign the card.
Using the same principle, but using larger paper, you can make a winter craft for kindergarten.
Read to your kids Pushkin’s works “Near Lukomorye there is a green oak tree” and “The Tale of the Fisherman and the Goldfish” and make crafts on this topic.
DIY crafts on the theme “Green oak near the Lukomorye”
These lines begin the fairy tale of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin “The Tale of Tsar Saltan.” The kids will remember these lines better if you and them make crafts based on Pushkin’s fairy tales.
To illustrate this story, you will need the following materials:
- thick cardboard measuring 24 by 35 cm;
- A4 sheet of white cardboard;
- paper towels;
- PVA glue;
- oak leaves;
- acorns;
- a paper bag in which grill coals are sold;
- acrylic varnish;
- hot glue gun;
- acrylic paints;
- colorless silicone sealant;
- pebbles and shells;
- semolina;
- bath salt;
- rectangle of artificial grass;
- golden chain;
- play dough;
- rhinestones;
- Kinder surprise toys;
- small chest;
- kebab skewers;
- dried flowers;
- carton.
In order not to wait for the varnish layer to dry on the reverse side, hang the leaves by their petioles on a rope using clothespins. Paint them in this position on both sides at once.
To glue the acorns to their caps, do it with a hot gun. Using pliers, cut pieces of wire of the required size, fold them, twist them closer to the bottom, bending these pieces here in the form of roots. At the top, twist several wires at a time to make branches.
Turn the coal bag inside out or use another paper one and place a tree trunk here. Twist the bag and glue it to the bottom frame of the tree in the form of a trunk. For branches, you need to cut strips from this package and also glue them to the tree branches.
Next, to create this Pushkin craft, you need to attach acorns and leaves to hot silicone from a glue gun.
Now you need to think about where to place the craft. A large cardboard box is perfect for this. On the sides, glue to it paper towels soaked in PVA glue and water, taken and diluted in the same proportion.
To make a blank for the seashore, you need to cut out a trapezoid from white cardboard. Its smaller side is 6 cm, the larger one is 16, the base is the same as the width of the box. The right edge of this figure is located at an angle of 90 degrees to the base, and the left represents curved line shores.
Decide where it will end, where the sea is, cover this place with blue paint. Mix green and yellow bath salts with semolina and PVA glue. This mass needs to be applied to where the shore will be located on your cardboard. Before the glue dries, press small pebbles and shells into the area. Place this work near a heating device to allow the glue to dry.
When this happens, proceed to the next step. He's quite interesting. Show children how to achieve a 3D sea effect. You have already marked it with blue paint, now squeeze the sealant here. Make waves out of it by forming them with a teaspoon dipped in water. Where you want the waves to be foamy, place pieces of cotton wool under them, helping yourself with a toothpick.
Now it’s time to put the individual elements of this fairy tale-themed craft together. Using hot glue, attach the base of the craft to the cardboard, while on the right there will be a blank of the sea and the sandy shore. Glue on an artificial grass mat; by the way, you can buy it at the Fix Price store.
To this artificial grass base you need to attach the tree. To do this, pierce it with wire roots, bend them on the back side, and secure them. Hang on the oak gold chain, glue a mermaid or a cat onto the tree using hot silicone. If you don’t have ready-made figures, make them from salt dough and paint them.
This is such a wonderful and unusual job. While doing it, say the famous lines of the poem, then the child will quickly remember them.
If you want him to learn more, then make another Koshchei by taking a suitable figurine from the Kinder Surprise. Place a small chest next to it and fill it with coins.
To make a hut on chicken legs, make it from wooden sticks or matches, attach a wire with paper in the shape of chicken legs at the bottom. Decorate the building with dried flowers.
Crafts from the heroes of Pushkin’s fairy tale “About Tsar Saltan”
After the child has memorized the introduction of this magical story, it’s time to introduce him to the main characters, but first let him prepare the necessary scenery. Kingdom can be made using:
- burlap;
- scraps of fabric;
- glue stick;
- scissors;
- a needle.
- Help your child cut out a rectangle from burlap. Together with your baby, decorate the edges. To do this, first, on one side, you need to remove the horizontal threads with a needle to form a beautiful fringe. This is done on all four sides.
- Now you need to cut out fragments of houses, roofs, windows, doors from fabric. To ensure that the elements are even, it is better to first draw them on cardboard, then use these templates.
- The child will lay out the fabric elements on the burlap. If everything suits you, you need to glue them. If the work is small, then the burlap can be glued to a sheet of cardboard so that the base is dense.
To make the ships on which the guests sail in the fairy tale, take:
- foam;
- colored paper;
- wooden skewers or toothpicks;
- scissors.
When spring comes, the child will be happy to let them run through the melting puddles and streams that form. This is also great fun for the bathroom.
Repeat to your child the lines that the squirrel sings songs and gnaws all the nuts. The squirrel here is a soft toy, you will make nuts from foil, which needs to be given a round shape.
To make the main characters of a fairy tale, use ready-made dolls. It is enough for them to sew the appropriate robe, and now the king, Guidon, beautiful swan, who turned into a princess, appeared before our eyes.
You can make decorations Pushkin's fairy tales right on the table. It is enough to lay a tablecloth here, lay a transparent fabric in the shape of a lake, and place paper swans on it.
How to make a paper swan for “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”?
This skill will be useful to the child; in “The Tale of Tsar Saltan” this noble bird is one of the main characters. If you are crafting with young children, show them an easy way to make a swan.
- Draw the outline of the bird on the cardboard, extend its body below so that a small strip is formed here. It is needed to give the swan stability.
- If the cardboard is white, leave the blank in this form; if it is gray, then let the child cover it with white paper on both sides. You need to make a swan tail from it. To do this, cut out a rectangle from white paper and fold it like an accordion. The coils at the bottom are folded into a fan shape, glue them together and glue them onto the bird so that it gets such a beautiful tail.
- Let the child draw on the eyes and nose; now he knows how to make a swan out of paper.
As you can see, you need to take a square sheet, fold it first once diagonally, then along the second diagonal. Following the photo prompt, turn this blank into a beautiful bird.
There is another great option. Having made such a swan, place it in your summer cottage and perform a performance with your children based on Pushkin’s fairy tale.
Before making a swan, take:
- thick sheet of foam;
- light packages;
- scissors;
- wooden skewer;
- 2 rods of reinforcement.
Place the next trim as close as possible to this one. Decorate the entire swan in this way and paint its nose.
Insert reinforcement along the rod into the lower part of the bird, and drive their ends into the ground. But it’s better to first lay synthetic fabric on the soil blue color or a substrate of this color, cut this material in the form of a lake. Then fix the swan and flowers from plastic bottles here.
If the child is older, show him how to make a swan from origami paper. To do this, you first need to roll up a lot of blanks as follows.
Each of these triangular elements has two pockets and two corners, so they will be easy to connect together. The following step-by-step photographs show how to make a swan to illustrate Pushkin's fairy tale.
Assemble origami modules, starting from the bottom, lay them out here in a circle. After you make the body of the bird, you need to make two wings, and then make the neck, head and beak.
You can make a swan using the trimming technique.
To do this, cut strips from a white napkin, then shred them into squares with a side of 1 cm.
Each one is screwed onto a pencil and glued onto a swan drawn on cardboard. This base must first be lubricated with glue. Plasticine can be used to attach trim pieces. You need to knead it, coat the swan drawn on cardboard. If this is a painting, then folded squares are attached here using the trimming technique the right colors to decorate the background.
If you have enough time, then the swan for Pushkin’s fairy tale can acquire these luxurious feathers; they are cut out of paper and glued to a prepared base. The bird's neck can be decorated with cotton pads.
Theme of Pushkin's fairy tale “About the Fisherman and the Fish”
Another story in verse by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. Crafts based on this fairy tale can be made from the most unexpected materials.
To make one like this three-dimensional picture, take:
- bark;
- birch bark;
- cones;
- sticks;
- plasticine;
- yellow cardboard.
- Place a section of thick bark on a work surface and clean it of dust with a cloth. Let the child put a piece of crushed plasticine here and place chaga on top.
- We make the grandfather from a big bump, which will become his body, and a small one, which will turn into his head.
- Using plasticine, the child will attach sticks, they will turn into the arms and legs of the character. The waves are made from pieces of birch bark, which need to be twisted and fixed in this position on the bark using plasticine.
- The child will cut out a goldfish from yellow cardboard and draw scales, eyes, and other elements with a felt-tip pen. Let him attach the fish to the wave using a piece of plasticine.
- Using natural materials such as acorns, the child will make a grandfather from a fairy tale. Just let the adults drill holes in the acorns so that matches or toothpicks can be inserted here, which will become the arms, legs, and neck of the hero of Pushkin’s fairy tale. The stick and rope will turn into his fishing rod.
- Place the old man on the moss and cut out the sea from blue paper.
The theme of the fairy tale about the fisherman and the fish in crafts continues with the next master class. From it you will learn how to make a picture from threads. For this craft you need to take:
- sheet of cardboard;
- glue;
- brush;
- threads different colors;
- openwork braid;
- bead for the eye.
- First, you need to weave braids from threads. Now let the child draw the outline of a fish on the cardboard.
- Dipping a thin brush into glue, outline them with this substance, then glue a pigtail of yellow thread along the contour. On the body of the fish they will be laid out in the form of scales. Bow sponges are made from red braids, waves from blue and light blue ones.
- Here you can use either a braid of yarn or simply glue the threads. Edge the work with them by completing beautiful frame. Let the child glue on an eye from a bead, and make a tail from openwork braid.
This is such an interesting goldfish made from threads. It can be made from other materials.
To make such a sea dweller, take:
- foam egg;
- satin ribbon;
- beads;
- eyes for toys;
- colored pebbles;
- shells;
- Titan glue;
- white seeds;
- alabaster;
- wire;
- acrylic paints;
- glitter;
- polymer clay;
- patch;
- pallet;
- transparent nail enamel;
- pencil.
Weave the upper and two lower fins from wire and beads.
Instead of scales, glue seeds, pointing them in one direction so that the narrow tips are near the body. Start attaching from the tail side, gradually moving towards the head. Limit the junction of the scales with the face with red beads, attach it here.
Carefully apply glue to the tips of the seeds and sprinkle them with red and yellow glitter. Decorate the face of the sea dweller in the same way, using only yellow sparkles. Seal the whole thing on top with clear varnish.
Here's how to make the fish next. Twist a loop from thick wire and wrap it with adhesive tape. Pour diluted alabaster onto the tray and insert the lower part of the wire here. Wrap another piece of wire with blue tape, this is where you will attach the fish. Also put it in this solution. Paint the wave and frozen alabaster with blue acrylic paint.
To do beautiful tail goldfish, string beads of different colors onto a wire and bend this blank into a tail, glue it to the sea dweller.
All that remains is to decorate the voluminous work with seaweed made from polymer clay, shells, and pebbles. And here is the final result.
Now you can show your children how to make crafts based on Pushkin’s fairy tales. If you want them to see how you can make goldfish, turn on the following story for them.
It is suitable for very young children. If you need to learn how to make a swan for older children, a video lesson will help with this.

At first he was told not to write the words “God” or “Jews” in the book. Korney Ivanovich replaced the word “God” with “Wizard Yahweh.”
The book was printed, but did not see the light of day, since the authorities destroyed the entire circulation. This is what Chukovsky, whose biography is full of drama, experienced. After all, he lost his beloved daughter Masha, who died in childhood. The writer often mentions her in his works, calling her Murochka.
In addition to her, the poet had a daughter, Lydia, who also became a writer. Son - translator and prose writer - Nikolai and son Boris, who died during the Great Patriotic War.
Streets were named in memory of the great writer, monuments were erected to him and the heroes of his works. different cities. An asteroid is named after Chucocolla.
