Hello everyone, today we will be uploading interesting autumn crafts for activities with children in kindergarten. So many autumn work kids can make it with their own hands even in the younger groups of kindergarten. I will show you photos of autumn crafts for the garden and tell you exactly how to quick for the teacher and easy for the children organize similar work with children. We will paint, sculpt autumn crafts from plasticine, and work with leaves and other natural materials. To make it convenient for teachers pick up autumn ideas for classes, I arranged all the crafts by age of preschoolers (junior, middle and senior groups of education).

Autumn crafts

for kindergarten

(younger group – 3-4 years)

The easiest way to create autumn crafts with young children three years old is to teach them how to use the print technique. It seems – what’s so complicated? Dip it in paint and splash it. But the fact is that not all children do it beautifully. Here you need to follow the rules.
1) don't spank the new print, completely covering the old print(there will be an ugly stain).

2) do not place prints of the same color next to each other(Only red in the left corner of the sheet, only yellow in the right), let the children learn to create color variety.

3) fill out all given space sheet, leaving no holes or unnecessary voids.

These rules apply beautiful works on the theme “AUTUMN LEAF FALL” or “AUTUMN TREE”.

For leaf fall (in the left photo above) we are preparing stamps from small potato halves. On the cut of the potato, we use a knife to cut out the pattern of VEINS OF THE LEAF. We dilute the gouache slightly with water so that the paint is not too thick, pour it into bowls with a flat bottom (lids from jars will do). Each bowl of paint contains its own potato, do not confuse yellow potatoes, dip them only in yellow paint, orange only to orange. Otherwise (if you mix stamps), the paint in the bowls will also mix - everything will become the same orange.

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

Autumn craft TREE with leaves, you can also draw it using different stamps. These could be lumps of newspaper, bottle caps, cotton swabs, or just your fingers. A tree trunk can be made from a handprint (paint the palm with brown paint, print it on a sheet, and use a brush to paint over the unprinted areas).

Craft APPLE TREE - too good job not the theme Autumn in kindergarten. The trunk of the apple tree can be glued onto the background sheet in advance. And give the children the task of drawing apples and leaves.

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

You can use the APPLES THEMSELVES, CUTTED IN HALVES, as an imprint. Then you and your children can make a Compote or Apple Tree craft with real apple shapes (photo below).

Children really like it junior group– here’s an autumn craft: COLOR THE 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 of painting the left edge of the apple red and the right edge yellow. And fill the middle with prints of both colors (on the yellow side - more yellow ones, and on the red side make more red fingerprints). This requires intelligence, attentiveness and constant consideration of the proportionality of colors on the left and right... Teacher repeat, the main idea is that there are more reds on the red side, and more yellows on the yellow side. At the same time, we reinforce the concepts of “more, less.”

In the autumn craft COVER THE LEAF, you can also set the task of distributing the color evenly over the leaf: red on one side, yellow on the other, 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 him new template a blank sheet of paper and try to draw a second leaf with your child, show how the colors can STAY next to each other 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-appliques

for the younger group of the garden.

A regular application for 3-year-old children can also be interesting and contain logical tasks.

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

Children also like this autumn craft for the garden - applique DRESS A TREE. We make slits on toilet paper rolls. We insert a green silhouette of a cardboard crown into them. And children place leaves on the glue in any order and direction.

This activity can be turned into modeling - sticking leaves by peeling off pieces of colored plasticine and gluing them like cakes on cardboard, and then the teacher will put all the cardboards on trunks and arrange a small exhibition AUTUMN PARK. It looks very beautiful on the windowsill in the locker room - 25 trees in gold and crimson - all the parents gasp.

Wax graphics

Autumn crafts in the garden

With the younger group.

Here's a technique that makes all the kids gasp. They clap their hands with delight when they make this autumn craft in the garden. There are also rules for children that need to be taught to them.

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

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

On the children's table there are already bowls with gouache DILUTED IN WATER. Gouache should not be thick, it should be watery, like colored water. In different containers of the palette there are 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 the waxed areas, and the wax contours remain unpainted - white. Autumn gives us magic - its leaf fall. The children are delighted.

Important #1 . In advance, the teacher CHECK BY EXPERIENCE whether the wax chalk leaves a sufficiently greasy mark. You need to paint over the wax mark yourself with colored water and look at the result. Not all manufacturers make good crayons.

Important #2 . Dilute the gouache with water. If you paint over with regular gouache, the consistency of sour cream, you will simply cover the wax layer with “this sour cream” and nothing will happen. Gausha must be very, very diluted with water. so that it looks like colored water. Then everything will turn out perfect.

Important #3 . Place a sign on a sheet of paper that will indicate the correct side of the sheet (the one on which you want to apply paint). With this craft it happens, that the child sees a blank sheet in front of him, takes it in his hands, twirls it, twists it, turns it over and puts it on the table with the back side (wax down) and then begins to color this blank side. That's why let there be something already drawn on the sheet, for example a frame around the edges of the sheet. Like the frame of a window in which leaves will soon appear.

Important #4 . TEACH A CHILD do not scrape the brush across paper, and put the colored water in 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 will be erased and a beautiful mark will not be obtained (and for many children 3-4 years old this is a problem - they use the brush like a pencil or felt-tip pen - they scribble, pressing the brush tightly to the paper, SCRATCHING it). The brush is the kitten’s tongue, you need to gently lick the paper... lick-lick, lick-lick.

This activity just develops the skill of gentle painting.

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 child’s task is to take a dry leaf from a tree, cover it with paint, and stamp it along the edge of the circle. Repeat this 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 is autumn smiling at us - she likes this portrait.

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

And then he “plants autumn trees” and coats the leaf with paint from that wrong side leaf where rough veins protrude. And while the paint is not dry, he quickly smoothes it onto the paper with his stem downwards - presses it with his palm so that it makes a good imprint. If the line-trunk (stem) is not imprinted, they can be painted on with a brush later.

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

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

Autumn craft LEAVES for the garden

(average group for 4-5 years).

In kindergarten, already in the middle group, there is intensive practice of shading. We teach the child to hold 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 undeveloped shading skills have difficulty mastering writing; letters in copybooks are written with incredible effort.

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

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

During the classes, children are shown how to color each section of a leaf with chalk - and how beautiful it becomes. Children will have fun 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 your own hands.

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

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

Crafts AUTUMN TREES

For the middle group of the garden.

The most difficult part of this autumn garden craft is not the coloring, but the arrangement of the branches. The branches for the trees are cut by the children themselves. The teacher gives each child a rectangle of brown paper. Using scissors, children in the middle group cut this piece into twig strips. And now one branch needs to be laid centrally as the trunk of the crown, and the remaining branches to the sides of this central axis.

A beautiful autumn craft for a kindergarten activity 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 outlines of the trees along with the lawn and paste them onto a sheet of black paper. Next, the child will paint over exactly these white areas with gouache diluted with water or watercolor. On a dark background the paint will look brighter and more saturated.

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 very gently spread them with glue and gently press them to a sheet of paper. Crafts for the middle group of kindergarten should not be complicated. Just autumn tree(trunk is a palm print). Each child should have a wet cloth on the table with which he can wipe the paint off his palm, 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 senior group of kindergarten you can make complex MOSAIC crafts. Duration of art activities in this age group It's already 25 minutes. And this time is enough to lay out a mosaic silhouette on the theme of Autumn (craft pumpkin, acorn, owl, umbrella with rain).

The children cut the mosaic pieces themselves. First, cut a square of paper into strips, then each strip is cut 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 it will be easy to find pieces of the desired color in the bowl.

Stained glass technique

Crafts for the garden on the theme AUTUMN.

On a sheet of paper we draw the silhouette of an autumn leaf. We draw the same silhouette on the back side of the sheet (as if through the sheet). Child's task senior group garden is to fill with colorful pieces paper napkin, so that the entire contour is covered with a colored mosaic. Next, use scissors to cut along the contour that we see on the back side of the sheet (it was not for nothing that we drew the second contour). And we get an autumn leaf completely filled with colored mosaics.

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

Autumn crafts in the kindergarten

Senior group.

WITH PAINTS

A very beautiful autumn craft TREES ON THE SHORE, when the trees are reflected in the water. This craft can be done by children 5 years old. Just right for the older group of kindergarten. Because it is at this age that children can quickly handle a brush.

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

If the teacher has not developed this skill in children in previous design classes, let them fold the leaves themselves, in advance, before the lesson. Spending precious minutes learning to fold and scolding those who cannot do it straight is a waste of time allotted for drawing lessons.

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

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

Children love making the AUTUMN BRANCHES craft. We take empty branches without leaves. Using colored paper, we cut out the outlines of the leaves and use plasticine to attach these leaves to a dry branch.

There is no need to paint each leaf separately. We simply paint a sheet of paper in streaks with wet paint, allowing the colors to mix freely and flow beyond each other. 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’ll get several pieces at once.

You can paint a sheet not only with a brush, but also with a toothbrush - splashing drops of paint by running your finger along the brushes. At the same time, you need to tilt the brush so that the spray does not fly into your face, but onto a sheet of paper.

You can plant a bird or a bat on such an autumn branch.

The OWL crafts look beautiful on the branches, and under the branches there is the HEDGEHOG craft or the autumn-red FOX.

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

Crafts WITH SCISSORS

For the older group.

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

Blanks for the snail are also cut along the contour. A strip of paper is rolled up like a spital into a tube, then unfolded into a relaxed twist. And glue it onto the back of the snail.

Or you can make a snail from plasticine. This is also a quick and beautiful craft for the older group in the kindergarten - it involves modeling and cutting with scissors.

You can make a worm that gnaws on a leaf and a roll of toilet paper. Like the one in the photo below. A simple and very cute craft for children. Everyone loves the smiling worm.

These are some interesting autumn craft ideas for kindergarten classes. Now your autumn won't be boring. After all, every activity can give a child a colorful mood – as bright as this autumn.

Hello!

Today I again propose making crafts in an autumn theme. Look out the window and see how many colorful leaves are already lying there. Memories and lines from, for example, these immediately grab you:

“Suddenly it became twice as bright,
The yard is like in the sun's rays.
This dress is golden
On the birch tree’s shoulders...”

This time of year is good because there is something to craft from. Because you can take any and then you have, for example, a little man made of pine cones, or maybe you love it? Then you can also easily make a souvenir for an exhibition, for example.

You can even take ordinary leaves and create a masterpiece on paper. In general, the list can be endless. So let me introduce you to a bunch of cool and beautiful ideas about this theme.

I hope you will be inspired, and once you decide, you will immediately start making crafts with your children. After all, guys at any age really love such work, be it junior schoolchildren or preschool children.

In my previous note, we have already considered many options for what you can make with your own hands from various types of materials, it can be natural, fruits, vegetables, and even waste. This time I will show you a few more options, which are also no less beautiful and attractive.

And perhaps I’ll start with a non-traditional, but a paper-plasticine miracle. Take cardboard and make blanks of maple and oak leaves. You will also need glue for the work. ceiling tiles, disk cd.

Take plasticine of different colors in your hand and roll it into a ball.

Advice! You can use modeling dough instead of plasticine.

Roll out with your hands, as if painting the surface of the leaves.

Glue the finished blanks onto the disk using glue.

Mask the middle with oak leaves and roll up the red rowan berries. This is such a cool masterpiece with an autumn theme.

Do you want to create something extraordinarily cool from real rowan berries? I propose to make a picture of rowan in the form of a squirrel. You need to draw the image of a squirrel on cardboard (from under a box, thick) and then cut it out.

DIY crafts for kindergarten on the theme “Autumn” (all new items)

With preschool children, you can simply use your imagination. Take and lay out magical multi-colored trees from plasticine balls. And indeed it will be Golden autumn.

In addition, you can also use paints and cotton swabs for hygiene; you can use them to create paintings and scenes on any topic.

Agree, there is nothing difficult about this, just sit there and put it on a piece of paper.

Another fun work from scrap materials, made at home, such as millet, is what the author offers.

You can also make pictures from rice and semolina, or pasta, in the same way.

Everyone knows that kids love to play with signets, so why not take advantage of it. Dip dry leaves wounds from the ground and dip them in liquid paint, you will get an excellent print.

You see how brightly and elegantly you can decorate any drawing.

Or you can go another way, put leaves (either real or paper) and use them as stencils, that is, paint directly on them, you will get prints.

Works made from palms are popular. Well, let's use this idea.

You need to take a disposable white paper cup and recolor it green color. Make a barrel out of a toilet sleeve and glue it to the plate.

Draw the children's hands on cardboard and cut them out.

One of them Brown glue on the trunk.

And then, in this order, everything else.

Alternatively, you can make the work in the form of acorns and even squirrels, cool!

Kids also love to use natural materials in their creations; for example, you can get by with pumpkin seeds. Print out a picture of wheat or rye on an A4 sheet of paper and decorate it with these branches. Doesn't it look creative? And most importantly, it’s simple and charming!

Read the finished description with materials and description below:

Do you want to use only colored paper? So you will need to cut strips different color and a couple of laps. Decide on the sizes yourself.

Fold each circle in half.

Then draw the trunk and make the crown of the tree, cut it as shown in the photo with scissors.

Glue the trunk on white paper, and the crown, that is, two circles with each other, only asymmetrically.

What is missing is, of course, colorful leaves! Cut them out in red, yellow and green.

So, what else, but here's what. You can take disposable paper plates, these are sold at a fixed price or in any hardware store. Paint them in the desired color, for example brown, and then let them dry. Cut out the body of a hedgehog or other animal from white cardboard, draw parts of the body, and let it hold a pine cone or acorn with its paws.

Probably the most primitive, but also so bright souvenir from cotton pads. Dilute the paint in a glass beaker and take pipettes. Carefully paint the discs with them. Let them dry.

And then glue it to any background, wow, beauty! And my mood even lifted, it was so bright and cool!

In my classmates I came across another such landscape, only it was made in a different technique.

Original works made from cones and acorns

Of course, forest or waste material is always in great demand. Especially in the autumn period. Because the gifts of nature can be found on paths and in parks and forests. If you have a desire to create something ingenious from ordinary pine cones, then here’s an idea for you, go for it.

Pour into a cup acrylic paint and dip each piece. After drying it, place it on any tray covered with oilcloth.

Then, from durable cardboard, you can even use a box, cut out a ring and decorate it with cones, they are glued with a glue gun. Just be careful not to get burned.

Carry out this procedure only together with adults.

Try to glue the cones tightly to each other so that there is not much space between them.

Here's a wreath for you, isn't it cute? I really liked it. By the way, you can use it as

You can also make a bouquet from them, who would have thought, but it looks so beautiful, especially if the vase is made by your own hands.

I recently showed you a lot of ideas about what else can be done on this topic. These can be bunnies, hedgehogs, owls, foxes, etc. and any other animals. Here are a few more ideas for inspiration.

I would like to show you one more video. In it you will see a bunch of new products this year. Enjoy watching.

As for acorns, there are also creation options from them. People or animals are usually made, but also cutlery and cups. Additionally, matches or twigs are used.

Well, if you want to distinguish yourself, then make an original thing, this is a brooch. Good luck.

Crafts “Autumn Fantasies” for school (grades 1-4)

And now I propose to complete a craft according to this master class in the style modular origami. Wow, I’ve been asked for a long time to show how you can quickly and easily make maple leaves like this out of paper. So take note, because it is with these blanks that you can decorate the interior of a group, class, and even at a gala event, a matinee.

And then please, take it and fantasize. Here's how they decorated it on the Country of Masters website.

The next option, which is loved by younger schoolchildren, is of course the main character - a hedgehog.

In order to create it, you will need everything that you see in the picture below. This is colored paper, a glue stick, a felt-tip pen.

Take brown colored paper and fold it in half. Cut along the fold line with scissors, you will get two rectangles.

Then glue them together to form a stand.

After the glue has dried, draw and make round edges on the workpiece. Cut along the line. Using pink paper, also draw outlines in the form of a semi-oval.

It is also necessary to cut out round-shaped ears and paws from it. Place in correct ratio parts as shown below and glue to the base. Scatter real dry leaves or cut them out of colored paper.

Now all that remains for the hedgehog to do is make the spines; make cuts along the edge of the brown paper.

Draw the eyes and face. Your fabulous little animal is ready.

Using an accordion, make the work in the shape of trees. Look how original it looks.

Also, one of the favorite characters among children at any time of the year remains. I suggest making it this time from a CD. And again the paper will have to be folded like an accordion, in general, look at the instructions in the pictures and create.

What an unrealistically charming sun it turned out to be; my spirits lift when I see it.

And if you don’t have colored paper, then use napkins, although take them in a single color. Cut into small squares and roll each piece into balls.

Draw any still life, in this case the author depicted trees and a river. And sit and painstakingly glue each ball until the whole image is formed.

Next idea, work from cotton swabs, which, as you can see, were originally painted, their heads, in the desired color.

And for those who want to comprehend quilling, or are deeply interested in it, I would like to invite you to consider such a masterpiece.

Here's another fascinating idea, look how cool the author came up with it. Do you want to make it happen? Then let's get down to business. It will turn out to be just a living corner.
