• white foam ceiling tiles with an interesting pattern - 1 pc.;
• scissors;
• glue gun;
• adhesive-based finishing strip;
• pliers;
• ruler;

Step by step steps:

• On the back side of the foam tile, we lay two 15 cm horizontal layers from the bottom, measure a height of 20 cm from these points and draw vertical lines.
• At a height of 20 cm, measure horizontally the middle of the resulting rectangles and set them aside 7 cm upward.
• We draw the roof lines on two parts of the house, then we draw a window; it will be at a distance of 6 cm from the bottom, as can be seen in the video.

• On the free spaces of the foam tiles we draw out the side walls of the house, for which we draw two rectangles measuring 20 cm * 15 cm.
• On one side surface we draw exactly the same window as on the front wall, setting aside 6 cm from the bottom; the window should be placed taking into account the fact that there will be a door next to it.
• We draw the door on three sides, the fourth side remains and is subsequently further strengthened.

• We cut through the windows and door using any available tool, and glue the prepared decorative foam tape on an adhesive base.

• Using a glue gun, glue together all the parts of the winter-themed craft. We cut out two more rectangles for the roof of the house, measuring 22 cm * 12 cm, glue the parts together, and decorate the house with tinsel.

From knitted fabric we cut out and cut out another trapezoid, a size that allows us to cover half of the cone and plus the length of the wire, which will be the frame for the long narrow hat of the stylized Santa Claus.

Glue the “cap” by making a lapel. At the very top of the narrow cap we attach any decorative element, a bell, a pompom, etc., and we also decorate the bottom of the cap.

We cut out a long beard and mustache from faux fur, after drawing a stencil, which is very simple to do.

We glue the fur parts to the places where the crafts were made in the kindergarten, glue on the eyes - beads and nose (the smaller part of the container from the Kinder Surprise toy).

Winter craft “cloud with snow”

As an option for decorating a window, an unusual winter pendant is suitable: for example, in the form of a snow cloud and large falling snowflakes. Both the cloud and the snowflakes are made from cotton balls: by pinching off pieces of cotton wool, we compact them tightly into a fist until the fist is full. Having opened it, we get neat cotton balls. We glue some of it onto the cardboard outline of the cloud, and string some of it on a thread. We fasten the threads with snowflakes on the cloud - you're done!

Openwork snowflakes made of white paper look original on pendants.

The pendant can also be placed on the wall in a suitable place - for example, in a corner where a future exhibition of winter exhibits is being prepared.

The craft can be left as is, or it can be supplemented with beads fixed to the pine cone with glue. Beads are New Year's balls on our Christmas tree.

DIY paper Christmas tree

A cone-shaped Christmas tree made of paper will be a wonderful decoration for the New Year holidays and will not go unnoticed, and its production is very simple. You need to prepare materials such as paper of your favorite color and texture, scissors, glue, Christmas tree decorations in the form of beads, rhinestones, sequins, and ribbons.

1. To make such a craft, you need to take a flat sheet of paper and roll it up to form a cone.
2. We coat one edge of the paper with glue and fix the Christmas tree.
3. While the Christmas tree is drying, you can prepare decorations for it. For example, beautiful bows will come out of ribbons, beads will pass for New Year's balls, and multi-colored rhinestones will play the role of lights.
4. Decorations are attached to the Christmas tree using glue.

From the examples given, it becomes obvious that do-it-yourself winter crafts for the kindergarten can be made from the most ordinary materials.

All you need are available materials that you have at home, a little imagination and, of course, a good mood, then you can only get pleasure from the process of making crafts.

For those who, despite their inexperience in creative matters, decided to help their child with a craft, we offer ideas describing the process of making a craft for kindergarten on the theme “Winter” with your own hands (photos and step-by-step instructions later in the article).

How nice it is to sit warm and cozy on a frosty winter evening at home with your children and make something like that. The snow-white landscape outside the window and the intricate openwork of ice floes on the glass evoke motifs and subjects for creativity. For those who are passionate about creativity and to some extent master one or another technique, it is quite easy to come up with a plot and bring it to life, and even together with the child, preparing for a thematic exhibition in kindergarten during the winter, New Year period.

Christmas tree, Christmas tree - forest aroma

Winter for children means, first of all, the New Year! And what is New Year without a decorated Christmas tree? It will be very interesting for the baby to make it together with his mother and take it to the kindergarten to show off his own forest beauty, and even an unusual and very beautiful one. Here are some crafts for kindergarten on the theme “winter” with a New Year tree that you can make with your own hands (photos step by step and descriptions are given below).

Pasta beauty

For this craft, you can use pasta, so beloved by almost all children. Making such a beautiful Christmas tree from pasta is not only pleasant, but also useful. When working with parts of this size, children develop fine motor skills of their fingers, which has a beneficial effect on the overall development of the toddler.

Let's see how to make this Italian pasta style Christmas tree. Let's prepare everything you need:

1. Pasta. They can be of any shape, not just those shown in the photo. Let your child dig through the pasta and choose the ones he likes.
2. The cone is the basis for the Christmas tree. This could be a plastic glass with a stem. A very convenient option, since by unfastening the leg, you can use it as a stand. You can also use ready-made foam blanks, which are sold in needlework stores, or roll a cone of thick paper yourself.
3. Glue. It is better if it is thermal glue, as it glues all the parts instantly. But in this case, you need to do this procedure for an adult, and not trust it to a child in order to avoid burns.
4. Green paint and brushes. It is better to use acrylic, but gouache will also work.
5. Any beads, bows, ribbons, rhinestones or just pasta of a different shape for a Christmas tree outfit.

Let's get creative:

Step-by-step photos for this wonderful do-it-yourself kindergarten craft on the theme “winter” are given below for a more visual aid.

Openwork Christmas tree made of paper

Here is another do-it-yourself kindergarten craft with a picture of a New Year tree (see photo below). These are miniature openwork Christmas trees on paper. They can be made very easily and quickly with your child. For one craft, you can make several of these beauties and stick them on the base, arranging the composition in the form of a winter forest and complement the picture with snowdrifts made of paper or cotton wool, and snowflakes.

To work you need:

• thick paper or cardboard of any desired format for the base.
• green colored paper.
• scissors.
• PVA glue.
• white paper or cotton wool for snowdrifts.
• any decorative material to decorate Christmas trees. These can be small buttons, rhinestones, pompoms, beads and sequins.

Let's start creating:

There is another technique that will allow you to make truly masterpieces from paper - quilling. Thanks to narrow, twisted strips of paper, you can lay out openwork, like lace Christmas trees, snowflakes, any animals, landscapes.

The patterns in this technique are fascinating and do not leave anyone indifferent. If you explain to your child the basics of quilling and the procedure, he himself will be able to make a snowflake or a Christmas tree for kindergarten.

Snowflakes

The technique involves rolling up very narrow strips of paper and gluing them onto a sheet of paper. But you can also make voluminous crafts from thick strips using quilling technology.

Let’s take a step-by-step look at the “Snowflake” craft for kindergarten on the theme “winter” with photos and make it with your own hands.

What you will need:

• office white paper. It needs to be cut into even, identical strips. For snowflakes, it is fashionable to make strips 1 cm wide;
• scissors;
• ruler with circles of different diameters;
• toothpick for twisting elements;
• PVA glue for fastening elements;
• you can take a beautiful braid in order to make a loop for a snowflake and hang it on a Christmas tree or on a wall.

Let's start tinkering:

• cut even strips of bull paper;

• Now we twist the elements. We twist all the strips the same way. We press one end to the toothpick and begin to tightly wind the entire strip;

• we fold all the elements into a snowflake according to the diagram and glue the joints;
• when the glue dries, you can attach the ribbon;
• such a snowflake can be sprinkled with glitter varnish so that it is elegant and shiny.

When the principle is clear, you can take on any image. Here are a few more photos of crafts using the quilling technique to help and inspire.

I made him out of what was

It is very entertaining and fun to make crafts with children from the unnecessary that is in the house. Kids are very happy when any used household items that are usually thrown away can be used in an unusual way and create a small miracle out of them. We offer several crafts in the kindergarten on the theme of "winter" with our own hands from improvised material, the photos and descriptions of which are given below.

Penguin from a plastic bottle

Be sure to make this wonderful penguin with the children, and maybe even a couple. If you don’t send him to the kindergarten for an exhibition, then such a cutie can be put at home under the Christmas tree along with Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. It is done simply and quickly.

Let's prepare everything you need:

• two plastic bottles of the same size.
• glue (preferably a thermal gun, it glues very quickly).
• acrylic paints and 2 brushes (wide and thin).
• some yarn for knitting.
• scraps of fabric.
• you can use any filler or weighting agent inside the penguin, or do without it, the penguin will be light, but still stable.

Let's start creating a penguin:

1. You need to cut the bottles as in the photo below, leaving one bottom from one bottle and the lower part a little higher from the other bottle.
2. We glue 2 parts from the bottles. The bottom will be the cap, and the higher part will be the penguin’s body.
3. We paint the entire structure white and let it dry thoroughly.
4. We outline the outline of the abdomen, the one that will remain white. Let's go over it again with white paint, and paint the rest up to the cap (up to the top part) with black paint. Let it dry.
5. Now we paint the hat in any color and with any ornament. First, paint the cap in the main color, let it dry and draw in the details.
6. Draw a muzzle: 2 dots of eyes and a triangular beak.
7. We make a pompom from threads. We wind more thread on the fork. We tie the wound threads on one side and cut them on the other side. We received a pompom. Glue it to the top of the head.
8. Cut a strip from the fabric. This is a scarf, we tie it on a penguin.

This is an easy-to-make and effective kindergarten craft on the “winter” theme, and a detailed photo will help you make it with your own hands.

Girdyanda

Another wonderful craft for kindergarten that you can make with your own hands from scrap materials. This is a garland or Christmas decorations made from light bulbs that have already burned out.

For it you need:

• burnt out light bulbs;
• acrylic paints;
• any scraps of fabric or felt;
• braid and rope for the base of the garland.

Let's get started:

1. First we need to think about who we will make from each light bulb. It can be snowmen, Santa Clauses, dogs, penguins and any other living creatures.
2. We decorate the light bulbs to match the chosen character. You can refer to the photos provided.
3. We complement the look with ears, scarves and caps made of fabric or felt. No special pattern is needed for these toys, just cut out a piece of a suitable shape and glue it on.
4. Now we attach a braid to each toy light bulb and, if desired, collect it on a garland.

Healthy lifestyle in everything

Winter is not the time to sit at home, escaping the cold, infections and colds. Winter is a time for active outdoor play. Skiing, sledding, snowball fights, fortresses and snowmen - that's what you can't imagine this time of year without. Let's reflect this in the crafts in the kindergarten on the theme "winter", which we will do with our own hands (photos of such crafts below).

Funny and mischievous skiers can be made using the templates given below. They need to be transferred to paper, cut out and decorated. Give them ski skewers in their hands and put (glue) them on skis from ice cream sticks.

You can make several of these skiers and hang them on a ribbon or place them on cotton wool drifts. To do this, take a lid from a cardboard box and glue cotton wool into it, and glue skiers on top. The craft can be supplemented with Christmas trees made of green paper rolled into a cone.

Here are some more ideas for kindergarten crafts on the theme “winter”:

• you can make a Christmas tree from palms cut out of green paper;
• and the same palms can be assembled into a wreath;
• snowman made of yarn balls. To do this, you need to inflate 2 balloons and wrap them in polyethylene, wrap them with white threads dipped in PVA glue, let them dry and burst the balls, pulling them out from the inside. We glue both balls one above the other, decorate them with a cap and a nose made of an orange paper cone, and tie a scarf to it;

• you can use twigs painted with white paint and make a wreath out of them, decorate them with any beads, sequins, pendants you have at home;
• The craft can be made from plasticine. It could be a winter landscape. Sprinkle it with foam crumbs;

• Another version of plasticine crafts is a panel. To do this, you need thick cardboard, we apply a small pattern on it and decorate it not with paints, but with plasticine, rubbing the desired color into the necessary areas;
• very good and cozy crafts are made from threads. We do them like this. You need to chop woolen or acrylic threads of different colors into fine crumbs (cut finely). Draw a drawing with large details on paper. It could be a Christmas tree and a snowman, for example. Now we coat each part separately with PVA glue and sprinkle with crushed threads of the desired color. We do this with each detail separately.
