Supervisor: Makarova Nadezhda Viktorovna, daytime teacher, OGKUSO SRTSN "Scarlet Sails", Ulyanovsk

Do-it-yourself Smeshariki from natural material and plasticine.

Purpose: The work can be used in the story games "New Adventures of Smeshariki", as didactic material in the classroom or in the design of the exhibition "Gifts of Autumn".
Target: making characters from the cartoon "Smeshariki" from natural material and plasticine with your own hands.
Tasks:
- learn to work accurately with plasticine;
- learn to use natural materials in work;
- learn to compose an image of an object from several parts;
- develop fine motor skills of fingers;
- Raise interest in working with different materials.
Foreword: Probably in every house where there are small children, they know about the existence of Smeshariki: a cartoon, toys from kinder surprises, coloring books ... And when I asked my son what he would like to do today? That his answer surprised me, he wanted to make Smeshariki with his own hands. To make it more interesting, she offered him vegetables and plasticine. He pulled out all his toys from kinder surprises, put them in a row and chose his favorite characters: Nyusha, Losyash and Kopatych.

Progress:
1. We distribute vegetables and characters: Nyusha from beets, Losyash from onions, Kopatych from potatoes.

2. We decided to start with Nyusha. We use white plasticine for the peephole (balls-flat cakes).

3. Red - patch, mouth, eyelids (she's a girl, she should be beautiful).

4. We compose all parts of the face in front of us, imagining how it will look.

5. There are not enough black details in the eyes and cilia.

6. We attach all parts of the face of our Nyusha to the convex part of the beetroot. If it is poorly attached, then we attach the spout to part of the toothpick, and the eyes and mouth to it.

7. We decided to make heart-shaped cheeks for our beautiful Nyusha (cut out using stacks).



8. Let's take care of the hair. We make a cake from raspberry-colored plasticine. We cut out, using stacks, a bang in the form of a heart - on one side, leave the opposite side.


9. We fix the hair on the beet tail, wrapping the tail itself in plasticine.

10. With a stack we make a pattern on a bang and a pigtail.

11. What is a pigtail without a bow?! We take yellow plasticine, divide it into components of the bow: ribbon, bow and the core of the bow in the form of a circle.

12. We attach all parts of the bow to the pigtail.

13. It came to the hands and feet! We make four blanks from yellow plasticine, and four circles from yellow - for hooves.

14. We attach. To make the legs and arms not only hold well, but also move, we use toothpicks.


15. We divide the hooves in half with a stack. Nyusha is ready!

She will drive a cool orange car in the new series!

16. We pass to Losyash from the bow. White eyes, orange nose, red mouth, yellow horns.

17. We compose into a single person. See if everything is in place!

18. Carefully fashion the horns.

19. Hands and feet - will not be difficult. (After Nyusha - Losyash quickly became!) We connect all parts of the body. Compare with a toy from Kinder Surprise... Looks like?! Yes, we are even better!

The moose was also waiting for a chic car!

20. Now - Kopatych. His nose is already different, we sculpt it from black plasticine, a mouth and eyes, just like Nyusha and Losyash.

21. The most important thing is a hat! It took a long time to choose a color... Green or blue?! Still blue! We knead the tortilla around the edges, and leave the middle convex so that the hat is cowboy! Putting all the parts of the face and the hat together.

22. Hands, legs and even a rake decided to give Kopatych!

Every autumn, thematic exhibitions under the general title "Gifts of Autumn" come to kindergartens and primary schools. And the main characters on them are crafts from vegetables and fruits.

From zucchini, pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, melons, watermelons, apples, grapes and other natural material from branches and beds, you can do:

  • Figurines of animals, birds, cartoon characters, people
  • Designs - appliances, houses, household items, dishes
  • Flat paintings and panels with different subjects
  • Flowers and animals in the carving technique (not to be confused with)

Artistic carving of vegetables and fruits

Another technique for making crafts from vegetables or fruits with your own hands is Carving(cutting out). This is when everything superfluous is cut off from the original form and a new figure is obtained, similar to something or someone.

Banana, eggplant and broccoli dog

Zucchini squash shoes

Bell Pepper Frogs

You can also cut flowers from vegetables and fruits. A sharp knife and our master class will help.

Master class "Bouquet of pepper tulips"

The flowers turn out to be very authentic, especially after 12 hours - dried petals close, closing around the centers. But it doesn't spoil the view.

Photo after 12 hours

For work you will need:

  • fleshy bell pepper - yellow and red
  • cherry tomatoes - small and even
  • barbecue sticks
  • patisson (for the base)
  • vase - we have woven from paper tubes
  • mug
  • red cabbage leaves, green hot peppers and viburnum sprigs - for decoration
  • teiplant

With a sharp, not long knife, we cut out the peaks on the pepper, trying to make both halves neat and go to work. We wash one part, where the testicles are, in water, removing the seeds and the core. This can be done by hand.

Now we plant the flowers on a skewer, leaving 2 cm in the middle for the tomato nozzle. We tap the stem.

The side without the base of the pepper is very soft and can quickly slide down the stem. We make a support at the bottom - we strengthen the top with electrical tape, and then on top of it - a green tape.

We put a small squash into the mug - this is the basis for the bouquet. For a vase, you can use a small pumpkin, green zucchini.

Set up a bouquet. We decorate it with cabbage leaves, viburnum sprigs, green hot peppers.

Crafts with the addition of decorative elements

You can add decor from other materials to vegetables and fruits: plasticine, foamiran, feathers, material, as well as beads, buttons, berries.

In this way, piglets from potatoes appear:

Pumpkin Fashionista:

Watermelons and pumpkins make wonderful samovars, teapots, flower vases, clocks and funny Halloween masks.

And "Cross" offers you another master class.

Master class "Wise turtle"

Tortilla does not need to be introduced. This is a well-known character in the work "The Golden Key", which is loved by all readers. The turtle is a symbol of wisdom, so we will make a fairy-tale hero.

We will need:

  • half a head of cabbage
  • large dark green cucumbers (without pimples)
  • wooden toothpicks and 3 skewers
  • base - flat plate and greens
  • floral wire
  • cap fabric, braid, needle and thread
  • scissors for cutting toothpicks
  • eyes

Let's start with the shell. Cut the cucumbers into circles of equal thickness. Divide the toothpicks in half with scissors or a knife.

If you break the toothpicks with your hands, you will get uneven shaggy edges, and they will spoil the overall picture of the shell.

We attach each circle to the base-cabbage with 3 wooden "carnations". This is enough to hold the cucumber.

For the head, cut off the end of the cucumber of the required length. We select so that the head and neck are similar - rounded, even.

For the beauty of crafts, we decorate the place where the neck is attached to the body with a cucumber “washer”: we make a circle from a cucumber, remove the middle and put it on the neck blank.

In the body, we will provide a place for the neck and select some leaves from the cabbage.

When the whole shell is ready, we will strengthen the head and neck of the turtle here on skewers.

We make eyes, turn the wire in the form of glasses. We make a cap from a circle of fabric.

We make legs from four columns of cucumber, fasten to toothpicks. Set the turtle on a flat plate. For beauty, cover it with red cabbage leaves. You can use any greens.

For the entourage - tagetes flowers, and the image of the wise and somewhere even flirtatious turtle Tortilla is completed!

An excellent and long-lasting turtle option is made from green zucchini squash.

Secrets and subtleties of creating crafts

  1. Before starting work, all vegetables must be washed, dried, and then used as material for creativity.
  2. Wooden toothpicks, skewers, floral wire will help in this.
  3. Be sure to keep in mind that crafts made from vegetables or fruits have a short shelf life. Soft tomatoes and juicy cucumbers, for example, quickly “leak”, and this must be taken into account when composing compositions.
  4. It is better to use "long-term" vegetables and root crops: potatoes, pumpkin, zucchini, cabbage, onions.
  5. Ideally, crafts should be prepared immediately before the exhibition, if time permits.
  6. It is best to install each craft on a base / stand. Otherwise, the composition will not have a logical conclusion.

For the manufacture of crafts, you need to choose even and intact zucchini

Autumn crafts from zucchini

squash ship

To make a ship, you can take both a large and a small zucchini, wash it and dry it. Then, without first removing the peel, cut off the upper part in the longitudinal direction. The remaining workpiece should be approximately 2/3 of the original volume.

Then you need to carefully remove all the pulp and grains. For the manufacture of the flag and anchor, it is advisable to use some bright vegetables, such as carrots, tomatoes, red peppers. The steering wheel and the porthole also need to try to make catchy.

beautiful ship

From the cut part of the zucchini, you can build a semblance of a ladder. All additional parts are well fixed with toothpicks. For decor, you can use grass, flowers - it all depends on the preferences of the child.

A ship with scarlet sails made of cardboard

The most beautiful flag is made from white cabbage leaves. They can be pre-painted with gouache. If there is no cabbage at home, you can use a bright cloth attached to a wooden twig.

Zucchini penguin for school

When making a penguin, you will have to work a little more with a sharp knife, so a small child cannot do such a craft without the help of adults. To make it easier, it is advisable to take a plant whose walls have become a little soft due to the fact that it was cut a few days ago.

On the sides of the zucchini, you need to make cuts in the direction of the "tail" and bend the resulting ovals to the sides. They will act as wings. In the center, you can cut a small tummy. Then the penguin will be very cute.

The eyes of a sea bird can be made of plasticine or small buttons, the beak - from pieces of a plastic bottle, carrots or beets - whoever has something at home. There is no perfect manufacturing scheme here. To make the craft unique, you must definitely bring something of your own to it, so feel free to experiment.

Plane and helicopter from a small zucchini

If you need to make an autumn craft from a zucchini, you should think about creating air transport - an airplane or a helicopter. Both of them are very easy to make from this plant.

Do-it-yourself airplane

For an airplane, you will need two medium-sized zucchini. The first one will serve as the base, so you don't need to cut it. It is good if it has a thin tip bent upwards. The second must be divided into three parts. The middle one can be immediately put aside - it will not be needed. In the remaining two, deep oval cuts should be made in the center so that in the future they tightly fit the main part of the craft.

To keep the wings from falling, they can be propped up with skewers or toothpicks. The screw can be made from zucchini peel and carrots.

Helicopter from a zucchini

If you plan to make a helicopter, you can try to find a plant that resembles this type of transport in shape (as shown in the photo). Then it remains only to attach bright details from carrots to it and take the autumn crafts to an exhibition at a school or kindergarten.

If all the zucchini that are at home are round, you should not be upset - you can also make funny helicopters out of them.

Funny helicopter do it yourself

You need to put the plant on its side, cut off the peel from the front to get a kind of glass in the cabin. Make cuts on the sides in the form of windows. Attach blades on top.
