Hello everyone, today we will upload interesting autumn crafts for activities with children in kindergarten. A lot of autumn works can be done by children with their own hands. even in the younger groups of the kindergarten. I will show a photo of autumn crafts for the garden and tell you exactly how quick for the teacher and easy for the kids organize similar activities with children. We will draw with paints, sculpt autumn crafts from plasticine, work with leaves and other natural materials. To make teachers feel comfortable pick up autumn ideas for classes, I laid out all the crafts by the age of preschoolers (younger, middle and older learning groups).

Autumn crafts

for kindergarten

(younger group - 3-4 years)

The easiest way to create fall crafts with young children of three years old is to teach them how to work with the imprint technique. It seems - what's so difficult? Dip in paint and spank. But the fact is that not all children do it beautifully. Here you need to follow the rules.
1) do not spank new print, completely covering the old print(will be an ugly stain).

2) do not place prints of the same color side by side(on the left side of the sheet only red, on the right side only yellow), let the children learn to create a variety of colors.

3) fill all given space sheet, leaving no holes and extra voids.

These rules apply to beautiful works on the theme "AUTUMN FALL" or "AUTUMN TREE".

For leaf fall (on the left photo above) we are preparing stamps from small halves of potatoes. On a cut of a potato, we cut out a LEAF VEIN pattern with a knife. Gouache diluted slightly with water so that the paint is not very oily, pour it into bowls with a flat bottom (lids from cans will do). Each bowl of paint has its own potato, you can’t confuse it - yellow potatoes, we dip only in yellow paint, orange only in orange. Otherwise (if you mix the stamps), the paint will also mix in the bowls - everything will become the same orange.

Can do autumn picture RAIN also in the technique of a stamp, which we will make from a roll of toilet paper, we stick it with our hands and give it the shape of a drop (as in the photo above).

Autumn crafts WOOD with leaves, you can also draw using different stamps. It can be lumps of newspaper, bottle caps, cotton buds and just fingers. The trunk of a tree can be made from a handprint (we paint the palm with brown paint, print it on a sheet, brush over unprinted places with a brush).

APPLE TREE craft - too good job not the subject of autumn in kindergarten. The trunk of an apple tree can be pasted on a background sheet in advance. And set the task for the children to draw apples and leaves.

Apples are drawn very well using the method of imprinting a carrot, or any other round cut.

You can use APPLES, CUT IN HALF, as a stamp-imprint. Then you and your children can make crafts Compote or Apple tree with real apple shapes (photo below).

Kids like it very much junior group- here is such an autumn craft COLOR APPLE. Here we work with our fingers and the most interesting thing in this work is the UNIFORM TRANSITION of color from red to yellow. That is, first we give the child the task to paint over the left edge of the apple with red, and the right with yellow. And fill the middle with prints of both colors (on the yellow side - more yellow, and on the red side, make more red poke with your fingers). This requires intelligence, attentiveness and constant consideration of the proportionality of color on the left and right ... The teacher repeats, the main idea is that there are more reds on the red side, more yellows on the yellow side. At the same time, we fix the concepts of "more, less."

In the autumn crafts COLOR THE LEAF, you can also set the task of distributing the color on the leaf evenly on one side red, on the other yellow, it turns into green, then into burgundy.

If the child does not understand the task and blurts out all the colors into a common smeared mess, do not scold, let new template a clean sheet and try to draw a second leaf with your child, show how colors can COMBINE side by side and not mix into dirt.

You can make a Hedgehog craft from children's handprints. You just need to organize everything correctly (a damp cloth on the table for each child).

Autumn crafts-applications

for the younger group of the garden.

The usual application for children 3 years old can also be interesting and contain logical tasks.

Here is an example of such crafts in the photo below. Contours are drawn on a sheet of paper with bright wax crayons by the hand of the teacher. autumn leaves(orange, yellow, red) each has its own shape. There are circles on the table in bowls - each bowl has its own color. The task of the child is to fill in the contours of the drawn leaves with circles of the RIGHT COLOR and fill in all the places inside the leaves - one in each. Here the mathematical concepts of “forms”, the concept of “one at a time” and counting within the number three are fixed.

Also, children like this autumn craft for the garden - the application CLOTHING THE TREE. Make slits on toilet paper rolls. We insert a green silhouette of a cardboard crown into them. And the children lay the leaves on the glue from any order and direction.

This lesson can be turned into modeling - sticking leaves by chipping off pieces of colored plasticine and sticking them like cakes on cardboard, and then the teacher will put all the cardboard on the trunks and arrange a small exhibition AUTUMN PARK. Looks very nice on the windowsill in the dressing room 25 trees in gold and crimson - all the parents gasp.

Wax graphics

Autumn crafts in the garden

with the younger group.

And here is the technique from which all the children gasp. They clap their hands with delight when they make this autumn craft in the garden. Here, too, there are rules for children that they need to be taught.

The teacher draws silhouettes of leaves on a white blank sheet - with WHITE WAX CHALK (or a piece of candle). Important - the wax chalk should be thick, fat, that is, check in advance which white crayons are suitable for this technique, and which do not work well ... now you will understand what we will check.

When autumn leaves are drawn on a white sheet with white wax chalk, THEY ARE INVISIBLE. The child thinks the sheet is clean. But the teacher says that if the sheet is painted with the colors that Lady Autumn likes, then she will give us a surprise.

On the table, the children already have bowls of gouache with DILUTED WATER. Gouache should not be thick, it should be watery, like colored water. In different containers of the palette - different gouache waters (red, yellow, orange, green). The child dips the brush into the coloring water and applies it to a white clean sheet. And the paint is applied to the paper, but does not stick to waxed places, and the wax contours remain unpainted - white. Autumn gives us magic - its leaf fall. Children are delighted.

Important #1 . In advance, the teacher CHECK ON EXPERIENCE whether wax chalk leaves a sufficiently oily trace. It is necessary to paint over the wax trace with colored water and look at the result. Not all manufacturers make good crayons.

Important #2 . Gouache diluted with water. If you paint with ordinary gouache, the consistency of sour cream, you simply close the wax layer with “this sour cream” and nothing will work. Gauge must be heavily diluted with water to be like colored water. Then everything will be perfect.

Important #3 . Put a sign on a sheet of paper that will indicate the correct side of the sheet (the one on which you need to apply paint). With this piece it happens, that the child sees a blank sheet in front of him, picks it up, twists it, turns it over and puts it on the table with the reverse side (wax down) and then begins to paint this empty side. That's why let something already be drawn on the sheet, for example, a frame around the edges of the sheet. Like the frame of a window in which leaf fall will soon appear.

Important #4 . TEACH A CHILD do not scrape with a brush paper, and lay down the colored water with soft movements - lick the paper sheet with the soft tail of the brush. If a child rubs the sheet with a brush like a washcloth, the wax is erased and a beautiful trace is not obtained (and for many children of 3-4 years old this is a problem - they use the brush as a pencil or felt-tip pen - they scribble strongly pressing the brush against the paper, SCRABBING it). The brush is the tongue of a kitten, you need to gently lick the paper ... lick-lick, lick-lick.

This lesson just works out the skill of gentle painting with paint.

Autumn crafts

For the middle group

Kindergarten

Craft PORTRAIT OF AUTUMN - children really like it middle group. A circle is drawn on a piece of paper. The task of the child is to take a dry leaf from a tree, cover it with paint, and print it along the edge of the circle. Repeat such an imprint several times - along the entire edge of the circle - like a round dance of leaves. Draw a face in the center of the circle. This autumn smiles at us - she likes such a portrait.

In the middle group of the kindergarten, children can make an AUTUMN FOREST craft - just give the child a sheet of paper already tinted in blue and ordinary leaves from trees (not dry, brittle, but freshly fallen). The child first draws the bottom on the sheet, the earth strewn with leaves - it's just a finger pokes yellow-orange-red prints.

And then he “plants autumn trees” and coats the sheet with paint from the wrong side of the sheet, where the rough veins protrude. And while the paint has not dried, he quickly smooths it onto the paper with the handle-leg down - presses it with his palm so that it is well imprinted. If the line-trunk (shank) is not printed, they can be painted on with a brush later.

Leaf prints can also be used in other garden crafts (photo below) - it can be a WINDOW with leaf fall, or a tree crown on a toilet paper roll.

You can use leaf prints as an additional BACKGROUND DECORATION for another craft-application in the garden. For example, you came up with the idea of ​​making an application for a bird. Then we will decorate the background with sky blue, draw the branches. And before gluing the bird, the child covers the entire sheet of paper with leaf prints. And the bird will already be on the background of foliage.

Autumn crafts LEAVES for the garden

(middle group for 4-5 years).

In the kindergarten already in the middle group goes enhanced hatching. We teach the child to pinch the crayon with three fingers and make up and down hatching movements - this is an important part of preparing the hand for writing. Children with an undeveloped hatching skill hardly master the letter, the letters in the recipes are given from with incredible effort.

Therefore, catch the moment - while the child is small, you can put a bunch of useful "devices" into him, which will then make his life much easier, and not only at school.

Here everything is simple. The teacher traces a real maple leaf on a piece of paper. Cut out these leaves. And on each we draw veins - which divide the sheet into sectors.

In the classroom, children are shown how to paint over each sector of the leaf with chalk - and how beautiful it becomes. Children will enjoy creating their own coloring designs.

You can cut out small leaves for children. Let them paint each of them in any autumn color. And they will decorate the crown of a tree made with their own hands.

You can draw veins on the paper contours of the leaves with WAX WHITE CHALK (fatty), and then paint with gouache diluted with water, or watercolor. Then the sheet will be painted over and the white wax strips will not take the paint. And you get a very beautiful craft with autumn leaves.

Leaves painted by children can become elements of a large COLLECTIVE APPLICATION, it can be arranged on a separate stand (above the lockers in the locker room) or on the window.

Crafts AUTUMN TREES

For the middle group of the garden.

In this autumn craft for the garden, the most difficult thing is not coloring, but laying out the branches. The branches for the trees are cut by the children themselves. The teacher gives each child a rectangle of brown paper. With the help of scissors, the children of the middle group cut this piece into strips-twigs. And now one branch must be laid centrally as a crown trunk, and the rest of the branches to the sides of this central axis.

A beautiful autumn craft for classes in kindergarten is shown in the photo below. We draw the outlines of trees and a lawn with a hillock on a white sheet of paper. We cut out the contours of the trees along with the lawn and paste them on a sheet of black paper. Next, the child will paint over these white areas with gouache, diluted with water or watercolor. On a dark background, the paint will look brighter and richer.

Leaf applications

Autumn crafts for the garden.

In the middle group, children can already work with dried leaves - they will no longer crumble fragile dry leaves in their hands, but understand that they need to be very gently smeared with glue and gently pressed against a sheet of paper. Crafts for the middle group of kindergarten should not be difficult. Just an autumn tree (the trunk is a handprint). Each child should have a wet cloth on the table, with which he can wipe his palm from the paint, first with one side, then turn the cloth over and wipe it with the other side.

Here is a series of beautiful autumn crafts with turkeys, where the tail is made from leaves. We attach the leaves to plasticine or thick PVA glue (or double-sided tape).

Autumn crafts

for garden

(senior group, 5-6 years old).

In the older group of kindergarten, you can make complex MOSAIC crafts. The duration of the activity class in this age group is already 25 minutes. And this time is enough to lay out a mosaic silhouette on the theme of Autumn (hand-made pumpkin, acorn, owl, umbrella with rain).

The pieces of the puzzle are cut by the children themselves. First, a square of paper is cut into strips, then each strip is chipped into cubes.

Important. Be sure to use colored double-sided paper for such crafts. So that the color is on both sides of the pieces, so that they do not turn over with the white side. And in the bowl it will be easy to find pieces of the desired color.

stained glass technique

Crafts for the garden on the theme of AUTUMN.

Draw the silhouette of an autumn leaf on a piece of paper. We draw the same silhouette on the reverse side of the sheet (as if through the sheet). Child task senior group the garden is filled with colorful pieces paper napkin, so that the entire outline is covered with a colored mosaic. Next, cut out with scissors along the contour, which we see on the reverse side of the sheet (it was not in vain that we drew the second contour). And we get an autumn leaf completely filled with colored mosaics.

Pieces of a transparent napkin can be replaced with crepe paper - it is also transparent and lines drawn with paints or markers can be seen through it (as we see the tree crown on the autumn craft below).

Autumn crafts in the garden

Senior group.

WITH PAINTS

A very beautiful autumn craft TREES ON THE SHORE, when the trees are reflected in the water. Such a craft is possible for children 5 years old. Just for the older group of kindergarten. Because it is at this age that children are able to quickly manage with a brush.

First you need to fold a sheet of paper in half. Children of this age already have the experience of evenly folding a sheet of paper. And they will gladly do it themselves.

If the teacher has not formed this skill in children in previous design classes, let him fold the leaves himself, in advance, before class. Wasting precious minutes learning to fold and scolding those who can't do it right is a useless waste of time allotted for a drawing class.

In short, we have a sheet of paper - it has a horizontal fold. Now the child takes green paint on a brush and draws grass. We put the gouache in a fat layer - and quickly print it on the reverse side of the sheet - FOLDING THE SHEET IN HALF along this finished fold line.

After weed, the child takes a different color - yellow. And we draw the crown of one yellow tree. A spot above the grass - and quickly bends the sheet so that this spot is reflected below. Next, we do the same with other spots-crowns. Then we do the same with the trunks.

Here's another paint job AUTUMN UMBRELLA. We take a semicircular piece of white paper. And fold it like a fan (starting from the center). Then we expand this detail and draw gouache stripes on it. Then we fold the top again along the previous fold lines. And we form an umbrella applique. Also crafts on the autumn theme. And it's easy to do in kindergarten in the classroom.

Children like to make crafts AUTUMN BRANCHES. We take empty branches without leaves. And we cut out the contours of the leaves on colored paper and attach these leaves to the dry branch on plasticine.

No need to paint over each leaf separately. We simply paint a sheet of paper in stains with wet paint, allowing the colors to mix freely, to flow beyond each other's borders. And then fold this dry sheet of colored paper several times (like a snowflake) and cut out the shape of leaves from this fold - we get several pieces at once.

Painting a sheet can be done not only with a brush, but also with a toothbrush - spraying drops of paint by swiping your finger over the brushes. In this case, tilt the brush so that the spray does not fly in your face, but on a sheet of paper.

On such an autumn branch, you can plant a bird, or a bat.

On the branches, crafts of an OWL look beautiful, and under the branches, a craft of a HEDGEON or a red-haired chanterelle like autumn.

This simple craft just right for the garden. The teacher rolls a half of a cardboard sheet into a tube and fastens it in advance with a stapler or double-sided tape. The child only presses the upper edge of the bell (front and back) with his hands to get protruding ears-corners (like the owl in the photo below).

Crafts WITH SCISSORS

For the senior group.

At the age of 5-6 years, children already have a year of experience in operating scissors. And so they can cut complex contours. For example, they can cut out such an oak leaf. The teacher on a rectangle of colored paper draws a leaf, veins on it. The child cuts out the paper with scissors.

Snail blanks are also cut out along the contour. A strip of paper is folded like a spiral into a tube, then unfolds into a relaxed twist. And glue it on the back of the snail.

Or a snail can be molded from plasticine. Also a quick and beautiful craft for the older group of the garden - here is modeling and cutting with scissors.

You can make a worm that gnaws on a leaf and a roll of toilet paper. Like in the photo below. Simple and very cute craft for kids. Everyone loves the smiley worm.

These are such interesting autumn craft ideas for kindergarten classes. Now your autumn will not be boring. After all, each lesson can give a child a colorful mood - as bright as this autumn.

Children get excited when recognizable images are obtained from improvised materials (cones, leaves, acorns): a cheerful puppy, a dragonfly jumper, a small perky bird. Making such crafts is very simple, but first you need to find a suitable natural material. It is best to harvest natural material for a walk. Let the child himself select the most interesting cones, acorns and pebbles, you can look for interesting twigs of a bizarre shape. Here are some interesting crafts:

Before proceeding with the manufacture of crafts, it is necessary to dry all natural materials properly. It is necessary to harvest cones, acorns and leaves for crafts only in dry weather, when there has been no rain in the forest for several days. If you start harvesting on a rainy day materials will get wet and soon become unusable.

For gluing parts, it is best to use PVA glue. If the PVA glue does not hold very well, you can also use plasticine. But you need to take plasticine quite a bit so that the junctions of the parts are invisible at first sight. Having made several crafts, you can place them on a "clearing" made of colored paper. To do this, you need to take a cardboard box and paste over it from the inside with green colored paper. A fabulous forest clearing for animals and birds is ready!

Unusual rose buds

A bouquet of autumn leaves - a beautiful craft for grade 1

Roses from yellow and red maple leaves will look chic, surprising and unusual. We propose to understand how this can be done. For a bouquet, you need to use only fresh, not dried leaves. You can take yellow, orange and red. The leaves are folded and twisted in turn in a certain way, gaining the volume of the flower.

2. We twist it into a rather tight tube. This will be the base of the bud, so you can roll it tighter.
3. We apply the next sheet to the base of the resulting bud, fold it back, without pressing it, so that there is volume and wrap it around the bud. The ends should be pressed to the bottom.
4. We also wrap the next sheet, placing it where the junction of the previous petal was.
5. And so we form a magnificent rose from several leaves.
6. When the flower has reached a beautiful volume, we wrap it with a thread at the base.
7. We make several of these buds and collect them in a bouquet of our own free will.

In the photo below you can see how to make such a rose step by step.
