The change of seasons and the arrival of the next holidays for all parents whose children attend kindergarten means the need to prepare children's crafts for the garden. Some people find it annoying because they have to spend time that is never enough, but most people welcome the opportunity to be creative and interact with their children. You can give advice to parents and grandparents to stock up on various natural materials during the season, so as not to get into trouble when given an assignment in kindergarten, but to always be fully prepared.
If you go to the sea in the summer, don’t be lazy to collect at least a few pebbles and shells. While walking in the park or in the forest, collect beautiful leaves, prepare twigs, pretty driftwood, pine cones, acorns and chestnuts. If you have your own plot, plant decorative pumpkins; they store well and are an excellent material for crafts.
The leaves can be dried between the pages of a large thick book; it is better to heat the cones and nuts in the oven or scald them to disinfect and prevent the appearance of various pests. It's a good idea to save cardboard cylinders from toilet paper and paper towels, a few plastic bottles and their caps. And, of course, put everything neatly in boxes so that you don’t have to look for it all over the apartment later, and the house doesn’t turn into a landfill.
Children's crafts for kindergarten- these are those that a child must certainly do with his own hands. Of course, they will differ in degree of difficulty depending on whether it is a junior group or a preparatory group. On his own, with the help of his parents, the child can make a drawing, a simple appliqué from paper or using autumn leaves, sculpt a craft or make it from plasticine and natural materials, such as pine cones or acorns. Figures of animals or birds are perfect for this.
The drawing does not have to be done using conventional techniques. The same leaves can be used not only as material for applique, but also as stamps. Paint, and not always of the same tone, is applied to the surface of the sheet and then printed on paper. You can make stamps from scrap materials: the bottom of a plastic bottle, Lego parts, a cube or a wooden block wrapped in thick thread - you can come up with a lot.
New Year's crafts for kindergarten are, of course, a wide variety of Christmas tree toys. The technique and material can be very different: paper, fabric, cones and other natural materials, thermoplastic and salt dough, plasticine.
You can even make edible decorations: traditional gingerbread cookies in the shape of a man, gingerbread houses that look great as Christmas tree decorations. Snowflakes cut out of paper, flat and three-dimensional, made using the quilling technique, garlands, figures of Father Frost and the Snow Maiden, various snowmen - it’s impossible to list everything. They appeared not so long ago, but Christmas wreaths made from a variety of materials are becoming very popular.
Crafts for kindergarten, photo which are given in this material will tell you how you can use unusual materials, for example, pasta, or plastic disposable spoons and forks. Plastic bottles are already so common for crafts that many things are made from them. Materials for crafts can include wooden clothespins, sushi sticks, matches, napkins and much more, if you look around you with an open mind.
Autumn crafts for kindergarten
Autumn crafts for kindergarten can be made in the form of compositions rather than individual products. A cheerful group of hedgehogs going for prey, old forest creatures or curious aliens looking out from a UFO made from a pot-bellied pumpkin - children can make all this with your help from natural materials.
When we think about what winter crafts for kindergarten we can do, we immediately remember the winter holidays: New Year, Christmas and, of course, the holiday of big and small men - February 23. New Year means gifts and various packaging for them, homemade garlands and Christmas trees. Parents can help decorate the group room for the New Year.
Day February 23rd - crafts related to the army and navy: ships, planes, . And for both holidays - greeting cards. An interesting craft for February 23 can be made from burlap and fabric. Of course, this cannot be done without the help of parents. Use a pattern to cut out the parts. The body is made according to the principle of a burlap bag, only you will need to sew up the lower corners to make the craft stable. After stuffing with padding polyester or holofiber, pull the upper part of the bag with a thread.
The top of the cap is made of a cardboard circle covered with fabric. The band can be cut out of fleece in a suitable color and decorated with a star in the center. The canopy is made of cardboard covered with black self-adhesive, but it can also be covered with black colored paper or painted with black paint.
The main thing is the face. Before gluing on the eyes and nose, move the pieces to achieve the desired expression. Make the nose from a wooden bead or pull a ball from a fabric of a suitable color stuffed with filler. The eyes are ready-made plastic, but you can also make them out of paper, like an applique. The eyelashes are embroidered, and the mustache is made from a bunch of threads pulled from burlap. You can tint your face with dry blush or lipstick.
Handles made of cloth or fleece sit on glue. One of the hands needs to be glued to the cap. In general, there are a lot of ideas, and each craft will look individual. You can find shoulder straps in a military store or make an imitation yourself: take a drawing from the Internet, simply print it out and stick it on a piece of cardboard.
Autumn crafts for kindergarten They are distinguished by the use of a large number of natural materials, which is not surprising. Vegetables, berries and fruits, which are abundant in autumn, bright autumn leaves, pine cones, acorns - excellent material for crafts.
Typically, kindergartens hold craft competitions in the fall. The child will be able to make an applique of leaves, people and animals from acorns independently with your tips.
For crafts from vegetables and fruits I will need your help, because I will have to work with a knife. Of course, children draw in kindergarten, and children’s drawings do not necessarily have to be done using traditional techniques with paints or pencils. Autumn leaves can serve perfectly as stamps when depicting an autumn forest. Such a panel can be made from the leaves themselves, but the design turns out interesting and no less effective. In general, stamps can be made from many available materials. For example, cut off part of the leaves from a head of Chinese cabbage, and use the cut as a stamp.
Although children, regardless of the season, make various crafts, winter for kindergarten- this is the time when they are forced to spend more time indoors than usual due to cold and bad weather.
You can explain to the kids how birds need our help and make a variety of them. By making them, children not only improve their manual skills, but also get used to taking care of our little brothers. In fact, making a feeder to support birds is very important, because in cold climates during frosts the death of birds is very significant.
And the scope for creativity here is simply immense. Feeders are made from a variety of things: wood, boxes, plastic bottles and even computer parts. Wooden feeders are good because they are strong and durable. But not every parent can handle a tree. Cardboard is good because you always have it on hand, but it requires protection from wet weather.
True, a cardboard feeder can be easily replaced with a new one, and decorating it will give your child great pleasure. Plastic bottles are a compromise option. Such feeders will withstand adverse weather conditions better than cardboard ones, and they are quite simple to make. Of course, the help of parents will be necessary, because you will have to use a breadboard knife. The choice of material is yours, as long as the feeder is made.
Crafts for kindergarten children can be game and educational aids, thanks to which the child will be able to explore the world around him in classes with a teacher, decorations for the group room for holidays, posters, etc. The interaction between parents and educator will help to find themes and forms of implementation.
In kindergarten, it is mandatory to study the rules of the road. There is no need to talk about the importance of this issue, because the lives of children depend on it. In the game, all information is remembered much better.
Crafts traffic rules for kindergarten
Crafts traffic rules for kindergarten can be a model of a street so that it can be used to simulate various situations in motion and remember road signs. It won't be difficult to do it.
You can draw street markings with gouache or acrylic on a sheet of cardboard, make houses out of cardboard boxes, diversify the cityscape with trees and greenery, and, of course, make traffic lights and various road signs. The easiest way to find signs is on the Internet and print them out.
Sometimes Soyuzpechat kiosks sell paper layouts with rules that contain signs. A stand for a sign can be made from a plastic bottle cap and a sushi stick, and the structure can be secured and weighted with plasticine from the inside of the cap.
Houses can be made from small cardboard boxes or simply glued together from cardboard and painted on the facade. Trees are also made from cardboard or, if available, from suitable natural materials. The grass can be represented with green paper or finely cut green threads and glue them onto a surface coated with glue. The texture of the soil can be easily created by sticking grain or
tea leaves
In general, such a layout will turn out to be as detailed and close to life as your desire and creative capabilities will suffice. The traffic lights and road signs can be separately made quite large so that the teacher can use them during the teaching session. There are several options for making a traffic light so that you can change the color.
Make holes in the cardboard base, and let the circles be double-sided: on one side the background color, on the other - red, yellow or green. A thread is glued between the halves of the circle, and the circle is glued loosely so that it can be turned to the hole with one side or the other.
The second option, in terms of manufacturing technology, resembles paper Christmas balls, which are glued together from many multi-colored circles. Glue a colored circle onto the lower half of the round window, bend it in half, and onto the upper half a circle of the background color. The free halves of both circles are glued together. When raised, the window is colored; when lowered, it has a background color.
Crafts for kindergarten pictures, wall panels, plot compositions and individual toys can be made using a wide variety of techniques.
Not difficult make a craft for kindergarten from plastic bottles. It could be an airplane, a funny pig, a hedgehog or a penguin. To make a penguin, we will need two plastic bottles, the lower parts of which are cut to the desired size and inserted into one another. For convenience, several vertical cuts can be made near the part of the bottle inserted inside.
Next, take acrylic paints and paint the toy. For the hat we make a pom-pom from threads and glue it. The scarf is made from braid, a piece of fleece or other suitable fabric. It will also cover the seam connecting the bottles. To prevent the scarf from moving, you can grab it with glue in 2-3 places or place it on a strip of double-sided tape. The design of such a toy can be very diverse.
To cover the body, make wings and paws, colored paper or thin cardboard is suitable. The shape of the bottle can dictate the shape of the toy; there are bottles with an expansion at the bottom. But this is not all the possibilities of using plastic bottles. Among other things, they can be used in non-traditional drawing techniques; the bottom of the bottle can serve as a stamp.
Parents' crafts for kindergarten, in addition to those that you perform together with children on given topics, may concern the territory of the kindergarten, as well as decorating the group for various holidays. These can be stands, posters, collages.
Kindergarten is a place where a child is actively socialized, encountering a group for the first time in his life, learns to make friends, live according to a routine and, of course, develops. Therefore, its importance for the formation of personality is invaluable. In kindergarten, children often make crafts - this is not only interesting, but also useful, because it develops imagination and fine motor skills.
What kind of crafts for kindergarten can you make with your own hands?
You don't need any complicated components for this. You don’t even have to buy anything - you can use old containers, paper, sewing scraps and natural materials. Such crafts can be seasonal. For example, if you are going to the sea in the summer, bring smooth pebbles and shells from there. The stones can simply be painted - there is room for children’s imagination to run wild, and anything can come out, from a landscape and a ladybug to a grandfather’s portrait.
And shells give generally limitless scope for do-it-yourself crafts for kindergarten! They can turn into cute animals, fancy flowers, and even if you just cover a plastic bottle with shells, you’ll get a great jar for small things! Usually in such cases glue is used, but in the case of children it is better to glue it yourself or use plasticine - it is safer and easier to work with.
Autumn crafts
Autumn means not only bright colors and ripe fruits, but also a large selection of natural materials for DIY crafts for kindergarten! While walking with your child in the forest or park, you can collect rowan trees, colorful leaves and cones, and then “revive” them using your imagination. So, from autumn leaves you can make funny applications in the form of animals, trees and even entire compositions. To do this, you just need to stick them on a sheet of durable paper in the order you need, and complete the remaining details with pencils or a felt-tip pen. You can simply draw on the leaves - what if the patterns on them remind your baby of something? And to prepare the leaves for work, they need to be dried under pressure.
A beautiful DIY craft for kindergarten made from leaves and salt dough:
A good craft material is pine cones. You can use them to make funny people, animals, bouquets and baskets. Cones are combined with twigs, acorns, plasticine and other natural materials. The simplest and most popular such craft is a hedgehog. Here you have options: a combination of a plastic bottle on which a muzzle is made, and the bottle itself is covered with cones, or a small hedgehog made from a single cone, at the base of which an acorn cap is glued and decorated with “eyes” made from peppercorns or cone seeds. For crafts for kindergarten, you can make a plasticine hedgehog body with your own hands.
Crafts made from paper and cardboard
Paper is the simplest and cheapest material, but under the magical hands of children it turns into anything, from the simplest appliqués to three-dimensional compositions. It can be cut, twisted, folded, creating interesting things like leaves for decorating a kindergarten.
They need:
- colored paper (green or multi-colored “autumn”);
- scissors;
- glue stick.
We make two types of leaves. For “birch” ones, we bend the paper in half, draw and cut out the fold diagonally, fold the resulting workpiece like an accordion, fold it in half, as shown in the figure, and attach a “leg” made of rolled paper. We do the maple ones in exactly the same way, only we draw the fold and cut it out in a herringbone pattern.
You can hang such DIY crafts for kindergarten from the ceiling by stringing them on a wire or thick thread, or collect “bouquets” from them and place them in jars.
The next paper craft is more complicated, but how much fun it will give your child to make it!
So, voluminous vegetables and fruits. They will need:
- colored paper of appropriate shades;
- cardboard;

- scissors;
- a simple pencil;
- glue.
Manufacturing process:
You can easily create a whole flower arrangement from paper - an excellent gift for your beloved mother or grandmother and just a beautiful thing. It requires:

Miracles from plastic bottles
A lot of interesting things can be made from empty plastic containers. For example, a funny animal - in our case it’s a penguin, but think about it and make anyone yourself.
We needed:
- empty plastic bottles;
- scissors;
- glue;
- acrylic paints.
Manufacturing process:
- First, wash and dry the bottles. Then we cut off the neck of one, and only the bottom of the second (it’s better if an adult does this!).
- We “put” the bottom on the top of another bottle, fix it, glue it, and let it dry.
- It's time for creativity! Color the bottle to your liking - let it be an owl, a frog or a bear, not necessarily a penguin. After drying, you can add decorative elements.
And this DIY craft for kindergarten - a bright, cheerful bee - will serve as a good decoration for a group or territory. Make it with your children.
It requires:
- a small bottle (like drinking yogurt or juice);
- a larger bottle - we will cut out wings from it;
- acrylic paints (yellow and red);
- black electrical tape;
- toy “eyes” - they are sold in handicraft stores;
- needle with strong thread;
- scissors;
- silicone gun (optional).

This magical plasticine
Bright and flexible, it easily takes any shape and that’s why kids love it so much. Plasticine is an excellent material for DIY crafts for kindergarten. They can draw “pictures” on paper and cardboard, create compositions using plasticine printing (from small plasticine balls) and traditionally sculpt various figures.
Here's how to create a simple painting from:
- plasticine;
- a sheet of thick paper or cardboard;
- pictures with large details (from some book you don’t mind);
- tracing paper.
Manufacturing process:
You can also sculpt the cutest little animals from plasticine. For example, a giraffe. You don’t need anything special for it, just orange, black, brown and white plasticine, as well as a toothpick for the “neck”.

Parents of children attending preschool are aware that every holiday is necessarily accompanied by children's crafts for kindergarten. Maybe to some this task will seem like a waste of time. But for most, this is still an entertaining and creative process, as well as an opportunity to spend time with the child with interest.
It is important to keep natural materials in stock in accordance with the season, and then any task for the production of work will not be taken by surprise.
Reserves of natural material
When traveling to the sea, you can collect small stones and shells. When walking in nature, stock up on beautiful leaves, pine cones and twigs. You can plant decorative pumpkins in your summer cottage - this is a good raw material for products that can be stored for a long time.
You can store the leaves in a book. It is better to keep the cones in the oven and pour boiling water over them, thereby destroying all the bugs. It’s also better not to throw away toilet paper or paper towel cartons, and save plastic bottles with caps. Make room for these items by placing everything neatly in a box.
Crafts for kindergarten are something that a child must prepare with his own hands. The degree of difficulty is determined based on the age category.
With skillful direction, the child will be able to create an applique, a drawing, or mold a plasticine product on his own. Using natural materials in the form of leaves and cones.
The do-it-yourself craft ideas for kindergarten below will tell you how best to use non-standard tools, for example, pasta or plastic dishes.
Plastic bottles can already be classified as standard materials; the possibilities for working with them are endless. Use matches, napkins, and sushi chopsticks, they are all great tools.
Products in the autumn version can be executed as compositions or as independent works. Perky hedgehogs, old forest men or alien creatures in a flying saucer - all this can be done with children's hands using raw materials given by nature.
Winter style products
In winter, we have associations of New Year holidays, and we also don’t forget about Defenders of the Fatherland Day.
On February 23, military-themed products will be relevant. You can make greeting cards. Excellent products are made from fabric, but parents must take part in the creation, as cutting is necessary.
The body is made of fabric, and the corners at the bottom should be stitched, this is necessary for stability. Next, fill the bag with padding polyester and tighten the thread.
All that remains is to create the face. The nose can be made from a beige bead. You can use ready-made eyes or create an applique. Embroider the eyelashes and make antennae from threads tied into a bun. Add tone with blush or lipstick.
We make the hands from fleece or cloth and glue them on. As an option, attach one handle to the cap. The ideas are endless, you can complement the work with shoulder straps.
Works in autumn style
Products in autumn style are distinguished by the fact that materials given by nature are used for production. Leaves, cones and acorns of these raw materials are in abundance in the fall, which is perfect for crafts for a kindergarten plot.
As a rule, work competitions are held in the autumn. The child can create the applique on his own with a little help from his parents.
For products made from vegetables and fruits, a knife is used, so work must be carried out strictly under supervision. Paints are often used in kindergartens. But you can also replace them with material, for example, autumn leaves will serve as stamps for creating a forest.
Note!
You can tell the kids how much their help is needed for the birds and make a feeder together.
This not only promotes creativity, but also fosters a sense of caring for animals.
In winter, the death rate of birds is very high, because due to frost it is difficult for them to survive, so care will be taken when creating the feeder.
For the feeder you need: wood, a box and plastic bottles. Wooden feeders are distinguished by their durability. But not everyone can handle this material. Cardboard is easy to use, but it will not stand up in wet weather.
In this case, the cardboard feeder can be periodically updated, and the baby will like its decoration. Plastic is the most unpretentious material. Easy to work with and will withstand rain. The work uses a breadboard knife, so the process is carried out under the guidance of adults.
Note!
Street layouts
You can create situations that convey the meaning of reality; such a game will help you master traffic on the road and study signs. Street markings can be painted on cardboard and houses can be built from boxes. Decorate the cityscape with greenery and, most importantly, make road signs and traffic lights.
Road signs can be printed from the Internet. A stand for the sign can be made from a plastic bottle cap and a sushi stick, and fastened with plasticine.
Houses can be easily created from cardboard boxes or glued together from cardboard and painted on the facade. Trees are created from cardboard or natural materials.
If you finely chop green threads and sprinkle them on cardboard, previously coated with glue, you will get grass. It is easy to create soil using grain glued to the surface.
Note!
One side has a background color, and the other has three traffic light colors. Glue a thread between the halves and the circle is easily glued so that you can rotate it to the hole on one side or the other.
Bottle craft
Wall panels, plot compositions and toys can be made using various techniques. It’s very easy to make crafts from plastic bottles for kindergarten.
You can make a baby penguin. To do this, you will need two plastic bottles, with the bottom cut to the required size. And the part is placed one inside the other. For convenience, several cuts can be made in the inner part.
Using acrylic paints we paint the toy. We make a pompom from threads to decorate the hat.
The scarf is made from braid or fleece; it will successfully hide the junction of the bottles. To make the scarf stable, you can place it on glue or double-sided tape. For the wings and paws, colored paper is used.
