Santa Claus made of colored paper
Competitions for the best creative works among students and parents have begun in schools and kindergartens. The New Year theme is quite extensive. In some groups it was decided to make a mitten from scrap materials, in others - a Christmas tree, in others - New Year's toys. My daughter and I have already knitted a mitten with fairy-tale characters (a scratching mouse, a jumping frog, etc.). There are up to a dozen different paper Christmas trees at home. So, today we’ll make a simple New Year’s toy. It will be Santa Claus.
Children of primary school age can cope with a craft made from colored paper without outside help. Children are not yet able to do this kind of work.
So for crafts preparing:
Let's start by designing the fur coat and hat of Santa Claus. This is a complete element. You need to form a cone out of red paper. There are different ways to create this geometric figure. Someone cuts out a circle and then glues it into a cone. We got used to twisting a cone from a rectangular sheet. We level the base with scissors.
Next you need to make a fur trim for the hat and fur coat. We will need two white stripes approximately 10 mm wide.Let's bend the strip in half lengthwise, and use scissors along the edge opposite to the fold, cutting a narrow short fringe.
Glue the fur trim to the bottom of the fur coat. We immediately decide on the height of the hat and mark the edge of the headdress with a white border.
Next, cut out an elongated trapezoid from a landscape sheet and carefully round all four corners. Immediately cut thin long strips into the resulting figure - a beard. At the end of the work, we will go through each hair with the blade of the scissors to fluff up the snow-white beard.
Using gouache, watercolors, felt-tip pens or pencils, we draw the face of Santa Claus. A distinctive feature of the hero's appearance is thick eyebrows and a mustache.
We will also cut out the hair for our craft from paper. No difficulties.
All that remains is to glue all the parts into place. Santa Claus made from colored paper is ready. Of course, if you wish, you can continue the work, in particular, design the hero’s arms and legs. However, the craft also looks great in its presented form.
Let's put Santa Claus next to the paper Christmas tree. The tree is made of multi-colored (white and green) palms. We will place tinsel next to the children's crafts. It's a pity that there were no silver items at home. We will correct any misunderstanding this coming weekend. You still have to prepare for the matinee.
Let's demonstrate the result of a New Year's children's craft in close-up.
That's all, let's say goodbye. We wish everyone a fabulous New Year!
