2. We wind the rolls on toothpicks. To do this, cut one end of the stick in half. We fix the end of the strip there and wrap it tightly.

3. Cut a sheet of yellow cardboard with curly scissors. Then fold it in half.

4. Glue a sheet with verses on the inside of the cardboard.

Poems do not have to be printed. You can write them by hand.

5. Give the red and purple rolls the shape of arrows. And from green we will make crescents and leaves.

Simple crafts for kids in kindergarten on May 9

Now consider easy-to-make congratulations for the holiday. After all, it is often difficult for young children to do them on their own. But under the strict guidance of parents and educators, it is possible to make interesting work with simple symbols. Most often it is a St. George ribbon, carnations, appliqué from fireworks or a star.

Let's take a look at a small composition of napkin balls. We have already seen it with you at the beginning of the notes. And now let's see the progress of work.

We need 2 colors of plain napkins, paper glue, A4 sheet, white thin paper, scissors and a simple pencil.

1. Fold A4 sheet in half. This is a future postcard. Let's draw a star on it with a pencil, inside the nine and the words "May".

2. Now we will roll the balls from red napkins. We glue them along the contour. If there are not enough lumps, finish the new ones.

3. Make 20 circles and bend them in half. These are our petals. Stick them on the glue in the form of flowers. Inside each of them we glue three spools of a different color of napkins. Voila, and you're done!

Here are a couple of simple crafts in the form of applications.

After all, a gift made with your own hands is the most valuable, and especially for veterans. On this day, rallies and concerts will be held throughout the country, and at the end of everything, fireworks will be launched into the sky. Hooray!

Among what I saw on the Internet, I will tell you that there are a lot of cool and unique ideas, all of them are good in their own way. And you can make according to any pattern and bring such treasures to the exhibition to a school or kindergarten and take a prize.

For example, you can choose such a craft in the shape of an asterisk. It is done quite simply, cardboard is taken as the basis, cut out to the desired shape, and then pasted over with self-adhesive sparkling paper. But, and this is not all the necessary decorations, they can be any badges or something else, such as rhinestones or scrapbooking accessories.


You can even stick a St. George ribbon, it will be in the subject here.


I saw even coins are glued. It's up to you, fantasize to get a masterpiece that would conquer everyone. Do not forget to make the desired inscription with wishes on the back.

The next option is a very stylish and cool little thing, take a look. It is made, or rather its second part is in the form of a ladder and decorated in this theme. It made an amazing souvenir.

And the star too, print the template and bend along the dotted lines, it will turn out to be voluminous and very beautiful.


But you can do it not only from paper, but also from other improvised means, such as fabric, such as felt or beads. Remember in the last article by May 9, I showed you

Take a look at this miracle from the video.

Now let's focus on a more voluminous version. After all, the symbol of victory is still a white dove. It can also be made from white paper, or rather napkins or corrugated paper by trimming.

Take a napkin and make small squares out of it, I would say small squares, then circle and draw the bird yourself, attach it to a postcard and draw an outline.


Crumple each square of the workpiece onto a rod, drop PVA glue on the tip and attach to the sheet. And in order to create a red flower, then fold the napkin several times and clamp the center with a stapler, then cut out the circle.


Fluff, while making cuts along the entire diameter of the carnation. A little petals can be lifted for volume.


It remains now to create the stem and leaves.


Well, after finishing this beautiful work. Look just wonderful and spring-like.


Now I propose to make an antique version. To do this, take a red sheet of paper, and make it square.


And roll it up as shown in this picture. You end up with a five-pointed star.


That's how lovely she is.


Then copy this blank from your computer and print it on a printer.


Arrange as you like. And the ribbon with stripes can be picked up.


And glue it somehow interesting with an accordion or ladder.


And also, if you have decorative staplers and all sorts of things for decoration, then you can easily apply them here. It would be desirable).
