Cones can be decorated in the same way. But for the cones, let's prepare something cooler. Pour some sparkles into the semolina. Now coat the corner of the cone with glue and sprinkle with cereals with sparkles.


You can do without semolina at all, take some sparkles of golden color. And then according to the familiar scheme. Into the glue and then into the sequins.


Using white acrylic paint, you can make these cones in the snow.


Add a couple of beads and a bow and you get a beautiful Christmas tree toy. Further, the decorated cones can be combined on our candlestick.


Now I propose to make beautiful Christmas trees from big cones. You will need small pots, acrylic paints, small stars, and hot melt glue.


We attach the cones to the pot, paint them white or green. And on top we attach a small star.



By the same principle, you can make a bigger Christmas tree. We make a cone out of cardboard. The height depends on the number of buds. We attach the cones to the cone with glue. Decorate with beautiful bows and beads.

Try to make such an unusual Christmas ball out of colored cardboard. We cut several strips of the same length and width. Next, we lay them out so that they all connect in the middle. Then we make a hole and put everything on a thread in the middle of a piece from a cocktail tube. There is a small bead at the top. Everything is simple and easy.

We propose to do creative work and return a little to childhood, when any fluff is a ballerina, any - a box - a house, but, any leaf is something magical and unusual. In childhood, the imagination is very well developed. It is better to make crafts on the theme of winter with your own hands for kindergarten together with the kids. Children can suggest and come up with a lot, but the technical side of the issue is up to adults. Further in the article you will find descriptions of crafts on the theme of winter, which are made by hand for kindergarten and a lot of ideas and tips. It remains only to select the evening and, together with your favorite toddlers, start to create magic!

We associate winter with snow, snowflakes, snowdrifts and, of course, with the New Year. Crafts for a competition or exhibition for a kindergarten on the theme of winter, which you can easily do with your own hands, just should reflect these ideas. Based on this, we will select ideas and material for their implementation.

You can make a panel or drawing. But it may not be a simple drawing, but made in an interesting technique. Here's what you can fill in a canvas for a drawing or a panel on the theme of winter:

  1. Drawing with semolina.
  2. Cotton pads applique.
  3. Cotton wool applique.
  4. Drawing from a white crushed eggshell.
  5. Sugar drawing.

All these types of design and applique work involve gluing the ingredients onto a base with a pattern applied with glue.

New Year's installations are a favorite type of creativity for kids. For him, you can take an empty unnecessary box, and cut off 2 walls from it. There will be a floor with two corner walls. This will be the basis for an amazing fairy-tale landscape or scene. Snow can be made from cotton wool, houses and trees from cotton swabs or rolled up newspapers, painted with brown paint, a kind of logs. Further in the article will be given a master class of one of these installations.

DIY winter-themed crafts for kindergarten can be made from paper or empty plastic bottles, from burnt out light bulbs, and in general from everything that you find at home. Next, consider a penguin from an empty plastic bottle and doggies from light bulbs.

And also crafts on the theme of winter for kindergarten can be done with your own hands from threads, photos of such crafts with a description later in the article.

Craft "Winter's Tale"

And now we propose to consider a photo and a detailed description of how to make some DIY winter crafts for kindergarten.

We craft from what is at home

We suggest using for crafts everything that is unnecessary in the house, for example, a burned-out light bulb. If there is a big sweetheart, that's very good. Let's turn her into a real New Year's penguin. What is needed for this magic:

  • burned out light bulb (preferably larger);
  • acrylic paints or gouache and brushes;
  • some firt or fabric in black, red and white;
  • ribbon;
  • glue (use a heat gun, if possible).

So let's start:

  1. We paint the entire bulb white and let it dry well.
  2. Draw the front part with a pencil: the face and the belly, which will remain white, the rest is painted black, except for the place where the bulb is screwed into the cartridge. We paint this place with red paint. Let it dry.
  3. We draw on the eyes and beak, let it dry.
  4. Cut out oval wings from black felt or thick fabric and glue on both sides.
  5. Cut out the red rectangle for the scarf and cut the ends, tie the scarf.
  6. We attach a ribbon to the crown and glue it over with a strip of white felt or fabric. You can stick a pompom on the top of your head.

The funny penguin is ready.

Penguin from a plastic bottle

Now let's see how to make a penguin or Santa Claus from a plastic bottle. The circuit is very similar and simple. For the craft, you will need 2 empty identical bottles. Cut off only the bottom from one, and cut the second in half and glue the bottom of the first eggplant to it with tape or glue. It turned out to be such a block.

Now paint it white and let it dry. Then, in the same way as with the light bulb, we draw the outlines of the front part for the penguin or the face, if we are making Santa Claus. We leave them white, paint the rest either black (for a penguin) or red (for Santa Claus). Then we draw the face and draw other necessary details. We put on a cap and a scarf, if we made Santa Claus, then we glue a beard out of cotton wool or felt. These are such interesting crafts you can do with your children from unnecessary things.

Panel "Snowman from cotton pads"

What a winter without a snowman! Children are very fond of making snowmen in the yards and poking around in the snow, rolling lumps for him. But they will also really like to make such a winter hero at home from improvised material. What you need for the creative process:

  • thick cardboard for the base in blue or blue;
  • cotton pads;
  • colored paper or thin felt;
  • White paper;
  • paints and a brush;
  • scissors;
  • PVA glue.

We start sculpting a snowman:

  1. First, let's make the landscape around. Cut out 2 colored rectangles from felt or paper, glue them onto cardboard. Cut out the brown tree trunk and glue it on.
  2. We glue snow roofs or cotton pad halves to houses. We make the base of the snowman from two cotton pads. We glue a felt or colored paper cap and a scarf to the snowman.
  3. We glue discs as snowdrifts and snow on tree branches.
  4. Cut out small snowflakes from white paper and glue them at random.
  5. Now it remains to draw the details with paint: the face of the snowman, the windows.

A wonderful winter panel for the kindergarten is ready.

Winter panel made of semolina or sugar

Another fascinating and interesting version of a picture or panel on the theme of winter is drawing with semolina or sugar. Kids will be delighted with this activity. In order to make such a panel, take colored cardboard, PVA glue, a simple pencil and sugar or semolina.

On cardboard, draw any winter drawing with a pencil. For children in the kindergarten, the easiest is possible. Then cover all the details that should be painted with glue. Now pour boldly and thickly semolina or sugar over the whole picture. It must be left in this form until the glue dries. Then just pick up and pour out all the remnants of the grains that have not adhered.

You can make a panel with a winter scene from plasticine with your child. To do this, you will need thick cardboard as a base, plasticine and a simple pencil.

On cardboard, you need to draw a simple winter story. Mom can help here. It can be a landscape, a tree, a snowman, or any animal. And then decorate the picture, but not with paints, but with plasticine, as if rubbing small pieces of the desired color, filling in the details of the picture. The child will cope well with this, only under the control of the mother.

A similar panel can be made from thread crumbs. Everything is exactly the same until the moment of coloring. Before coloring, you need to finely cut the threads of different colors and place each color in its own container. Then coat each element of the pattern with PVA glue separately and apply crumbs from threads to it. So we fill in all the elements of the picture.

Crafts from threads

Snowman made of thread

You can try to make a beautiful, delicate and large snowman out of threads. What is needed for this:

  • two balloons and polyethylene;
  • white cotton threads;
  • PVA glue;
  • branches for pens;
  • cap and scarf for decoration;
  • buttons for the peephole;
  • orange paper for making the nose a carrot.

We start tinkering:

  1. We inflate the balls and wrap them in plastic.
  2. We wrap the balls randomly with a thread smeared with PVA glue. The thread must be passed through a tube of glue and wound.
  3. Let the balls dry and pop the air base, take out the balloons from the inside through any gap.
  4. We glue together 2 balls, put the snowman on a stable surface. To do this, you can glue a ring from a strip of thick cardboard.
  5. Now we decorate the snowman with a cap and a scarf, glue twigs instead of hands.
  6. Glue the buttons in place of the eyes and nose with a carrot from a cone twisted from paper.

In general, you can decorate such a snowman at your own discretion.

Christmas trees from balls of thread

And now we will make a cozy, home and New Year tree from balls of thread. For this you need:

  • threads of different colors. Better to take wool blend or acrylic;
  • thick paper, from it we will make a cone base or a purchased foam cone;
  • any beads or flowers from ribbons and tulle for decoration;
  • thick wire;
  • a pot or empty low jar;
  • fabric, mesh or tulle for decorating the pot.
  • jute rope.
  • glue in the gun.
  • gypsum.

We start to create:

  1. Making the base. First, bend a nice little piece of wire for the tree leg and wrap it with jute rope.
  2. Dissolve the plaster in a bowl and transfer the required amount to the tree pot, stick in the leg and wait until it dries.
  3. We decorate the pot with a cloth, decorate with a cone or a flower.
  4. Now the tree itself. We make a cone out of paper or take a ready-made one from foam and put it on the leg.
  5. We wind balls from different threads. Children can be involved in this activity, they will willingly help.
  6. We glue the cone with balls tightly, leaving no gaps.
  7. It remains to decorate our cozy woolen beauty. We glue beads, fabric flowers or whatever you want.

You can make such a Christmas tree without a base from a pot and a leg, just a cone from balls. It is both easier and faster. You can add sisal balls to the balls, if any, or make balls from coffee beans by simply pasting over dense lumps of paper colored brown with coffee beans.

Winter new year wreaths

Such wreaths are classics of the genre. They decorate the room in winter, preparing for the new year. They can be made from everything that is at hand, they can be used:

  • spruce branches;
  • cones;
  • chestnuts;
  • pieces of paper or cardboard;
  • acorns;
  • bay leaves;
  • dried flowers;
  • coffee beans;
  • paper flowers:
  • flowers made of fabric or ribbons;
  • just branches;
  • Christmas balls of different sizes;
  • the same skeins of thread and so on.

To make a wreath, the main thing is to understand the principle: first we make a base from cardboard or buy a foam ring in a store for creativity and decorate the base of our own free will. On the base, you need to stick the selected elements tightly, you can combine them, and then decorate with a ribbon bow on the side and hang on cords.

A wreath like this can be sprayed with glitter varnish or spray paint with gold or silver paint.
