Every minute they try to occupy themselves with something and are always looking for interesting activities especially during summer holidays. Making children's crafts is a useful way to keep your little one busy.

With the help of adults, the child creates whole works of art that in adulthood will remind him of his childhood. A group of preschool boys and girls often gathers, where a master class is held, here you can find out what creativity and fake are and how to make it step by step for a beginner.

Paper- the most popular material for creative pursuits with kids younger age. When creating crafts, the child learns to handle scissors. Working with glue for the first time will seem difficult for a child, but over time this skill will improve.

At the same time, the development fine motor skills fingers. The process of making crafts forms patience, diligence, perseverance. Children 3-4 years old perform all paper work under the supervision of an adult.

Craft "Hares"

You need to start with the manufacture of light crafts. Most children 3-4 years old already know how to cut simple shapes out of paper with scissors.

For creating crafts, the child should cut out several strips of the same width. If it will be difficult for him, then first draw the contours of the strips using a ruler.

The hare's head is a strip of paper glued into a ring. Ears - glued two strips to the head. For the paws, take a wide strip and make small cuts at both ends. Slightly bend and glue the head on the body. We draw eyes. To complete the composition, the rabbits can be placed on the grass - green paper.

Crafts "Caterpillar" and "Bird"

Many different animals can be made from strips of paper. Here, for example, is a caterpillar. Caterpillar made from strips of paper of the same width. The color of the paper can be both monophonic and different. The blanks are also glued into a circle (ringlet).

Next, the rings are glued together, and a paper caterpillar is obtained. Eyes, horns are cut out of paper and glued on the head. The insect is placed on a green piece of paper. Using a hole puncher, we make several holes on the leaf, so we get the “eaten” leaf by the caterpillar.

Craft " birdie» is made from strips of the same width, but different lengths. The strips are cut from different colored paper. Again, glue each blank into a ring.

Craft "Lion"

On orange Draw a circle on paper and cut it out. On it, the child draws the eyes, nose and mouth of the future lion. We cut multi-colored strips of different lengths. Glue them along the edge of the circle as often as possible. To get "curls" - a lion's mane, we twist the paper with a pencil. To complete, you can invite the child to cut out a few thin strips - these will be the mustache of a lion.

Paper applications for children 3-4 years old

Crafts with children 3-4 years old can be made in the form of applications.

  4. Then the baby glues the stem, core and palm leaves.
