However, they, especially boys, with a great desire to study the types of weapons and that were used during the war - in particular, the Great Patriotic War.

DIY tank out of the box

For example, when talking about World War II, you can offer to make a tank for children with their own hands from cardboard or even ready-made cardboard boxes. In the process of work, it will be possible to tell the children that at the time of the outbreak of the Second World War, the most powerful tank army was in Russia. And the biggest tank battle took place near Kursk, where the Russian army won.

DIY tank craft is done as follows:

Prepare in advance two flat boxes of different sizes, green paint, scissors, bottle caps, a brush and glue. You will also need thick paper or sheet cardboard. In the larger box we cut a fairly large window, slightly smaller than the area of ​​the smaller box. And in the smaller one we will make a narrow small hole.

Let's arm ourselves with paints and glue. We glue a small one to the big box, just above the hole. Twist the tube out of cardboard - the muzzle - and fix it in a small (upper) box. Let's cover the resulting tank hull and the barrel with green paint.

Cut strips out of black cardboard, glue them on the sides of the case, insert a row of caps inside - we get tank tracks. We make tongues of flame from red cardboard, insert into the barrel.

If large box do not glue it, the tank can be used to store various little things, which is very convenient - it turns out that a self-created tank from scrap materials will also become a cache.

DIY plasticine tank

A very effective tank can be made from ordinary plasticine. We connect the plates of green and black plasticine.

We fix the turret of the tank from light green plasticine.

We mold and fix the muzzle of the tank.

We supplement the turret and the rear of the tank with small elements.

Making a tank track.

The plasticine tank is ready!

A toy tank can be made from a matchbox.

Perhaps the most needed, pleasant and beautiful tank is a tank made of socks, a pen and sweet chocolates.

Such a serious one will help children to join history and learn how to create interesting things from quite ordinary objects.

Modular military origami

Modular origami - the ability to create a three-dimensional and realistic paper figure. The technique differs from ordinary origami, since all the figures are not made of one sheet of paper, but of the same modules. In this article, you will learn how to make military crafts, method modular origami: an airplane and a ship that can be used as a visual aid in history lessons or presented as a do-it-yourself gift to grandfather and dad.

Materials:

• origami paper;
• scissors;
• Ruler and pencil.

1. A4 sheet can be cut in two ways, depending on which rectangles of 53 × 74 mm or 37 × 53 mm are obtained. The first way is to divide the length and width into 4 equal parts, and in the second, divide the width into 4 parts and the length into 8 parts.
2. Cut the sheet along the marked lines and start folding each piece. To do this, fold the rectangle in half, turn it over and again in half. After that, unfold once to form a visible fold line.

4. Lift the edges of the triangle up and bend their corners through the large triangle.

5. After that, unfold and fold these corners into triangles along the marked lines.

To assemble this airplane, you need to make 89 modules according to the scheme described above. To make the product more original, use paper of different colors, for example, you can make 18 blue and 71 yellow modules. Starting with 2 blue modules, add yellow and again blue. You can watch a more detailed master class in the video.

Another aircraft model requires more modules. You will need 1142 modules of different colors: 40 gray, 242 black, 166 white, 694 red. You can choose the color yourself. Detailed master class will help you assemble an airplane, even without special skills, watch the video.

1. Make the first row of 47 modules and add another 47 modules for two rows in the same way.
2. In the fourth row of models there should be 51, since four additional modules need to be fixed on the sides of the bow and stern of the future vessel.

3. In rows from the fifth to the seventh, you need to attach 55 modules each, and do not forget to give the craft the shape of a ship. Squeeze the sides lightly so that the sailboat comes out not round, but slightly flat.
4. Then attach 55 modules, while forming the bow of the ship so that it is slightly sharp. In the ninth row, elements of a different color are worn on short sides to keep the structure of the ship strong.

5. On the side parts of the sailboat in row 10 there should be 8 modules each, they are inserted between adjacent modules (the long side is inside, and the pockets are outside).
6. At the stern, you need to make a rim of a different color. To do this, insert the modules in the usual way, not like in point 5.
7. In order to design the bow, put on symmetrically modular blanks in the extreme part. It turns out 9 modules in the 11th row, 6 modules will be in the 12th row and 3 in the thirteenth.
8. You will need about 140 modular triangles for the bottom. Start with three modules and add one in each row until there are 8 modules, but remember to try the bottom to the ship. After that, you will need to make 9 rows without increasing, alternating 7 and 8 modular rows. Starting at row 17, reduce the number of modules from seven to one.
9. To make a sail, take 252 modules, and you can independently choose the color and ornament. The first row should consist of 17 modules, in the next ten you need to alternate 16-17 modules, and starting from 12, reduce the number of modules (minus one for each side). It will turn out 16 rows, but in the last one, fasten the modules on the contrary and slightly bend the sail.
10. Take a wooden barbecue stick 20-25 cm long and glue it over with colored paper. It will act as a mast, so fix it in the center of the ship and attach the sail to it.
11. Collect the flag, and also make portholes.
