Mosaic of balls

A similar technique for children's plasticineography is available to most children. When the child learns to independently roll small spheres from the material, offer him the task of filling the pre-drawn outline with these multi-colored lumps, without pressing the plasticine too much to the surface. This activity perfectly develops imagination and fine motor skills. When performing the exercise, you will be able to color the most fantastic drawing, giving it volume.

Any errors in the work can be easily corrected - you just need to move the colored ball to the right place.

A little about plasticine painting

This type of art appeared relatively recently, at the end of the last century. Before this, artists sculpted three-dimensional figures from plasticine. This material was often used, and is still used today, by sculptors to quickly make any shape.

Initially, only children mastered the technique of plasticine painting. The artists considered it self-indulgence. But kindergarten teachers enjoyed smearing plasticine on cardboard with their children. This process develops fine motor skills, imagination and helps strengthen the muscles of the hands. But over time, plasticine painting went beyond the kindergarten, and today it has many fans among adults. True, professional artists still consider this type of art too primitive. But in fact, it is not primitive, but decorative. And it definitely has a right to exist.

Useful tips

The most important thing in the process of sculpting with young children is not only to teach them how to perform basic sculpting techniques.
The main thing is that they should have fun. Perhaps some of the children will quickly get tired of modeling and will gladly switch to another game. Some people, on the contrary, are very passionate about creative work. Before sculpting, it is important to ask a child who is four or five years old what he wants to sculpt. You can offer your own option and not interfere with him, if he expressed a desire to make the figure himself, choosing an animated character as the theme, perhaps it will be some kind of fixie, and perhaps even an animatronic Freddy

Plasticine sculpture develops children's creative potential, and we should refrain from any negative criticism, on the contrary, they will encourage creativity as much as possible

If a child is experiencing frustration, it is important to address this by encouraging more practice and experimentation.

In addition to being engrossed in play, a child begins to understand cause and effect when he picks up play dough and manipulates it to change shape. This stimulates the child's creativity and tickles his intellect. From a scientific point of view, sculpting creates many new synapses in the brain, activating neurons through the senses used at work.

How does modeling affect a child’s development?

Modeling from plasticine is a fascinating artistic activity that is not just great entertainment for children. Her goals are much bigger. The possibilities of the material as an artistic project are diverse and important for the social, cognitive, emotional, and physical development of the child.

Health and emotional background of the individual

Playing with plasticine is one of a number of sensory games that play an important role in a child’s development. Sight, smell, hearing, touch, taste are all included in sensory play. In fact, it is more than just touch, sensory exploration is a child's way of exploring, discovering, classifying and making sense of the world.

Playing with plasticine helps develop fine motor skills in a child. During modeling lessons, small muscle groups in children's fingers, hands and wrists are trained and strengthened, helping to facilitate the process of learning to write. The control over finger movements used when modeling from plasticine is actually the same as the ability to hold a pen and write with it. Without well-developed fine motor skills, a child may have difficulty not only learning to write, but also performing other tasks such as turning the pages of a book, cutting, drawing, squeezing glue out of a tube, tying shoelaces, or zipping up a zipper.

Modeling calms a child during an “emotional crisis” - it helps regulate internal discomfort, be it boredom, anxiety or another type of excitement. Creating figures, be it a bunny or a kitten, or any other animal, allows kids to feel competent and proud of their achievements (“I can roll out”, “I made a smesharik”). During modeling classes, children communicate with each other, describe what they are doing and how, observe the actions of their comrades and compare actions and objects, which teaches interaction with each other and joint actions.

Mental and Personal Development

Through playing with plasticine, children express their ideas, satisfy their curiosity, analyze and solve problems, and learn symbolic thinking. While playing with play dough, children listen and talk to peers or adults, which helps them expand their vocabulary as they describe their actions, make up stories about their creations, use ideas from books they read with their parents, and refer to what they see in Everyday life.

Psychologists say that children live to play; they learn to understand the world through play. When they play, they explore, control or change their environment, and learn to concentrate on something - all of which provide a preparatory stage for later academic achievements. A child's learning depends very much on his ability to feel and touch.

The benefits of drawing with plasticine

Children intuitively try to diversify their daily activities, since they need to learn a lot, learn almost everything on their own.
This is useful for all-round development. Replacing learning activities with creative experiments allows you to improve cognitive skills, awaken the ability to dream, imagine, and think outside the box. Drawing is an accessible and most favorite type of activity for children of any age. The means of fine art have no restrictions: you can use pencils, sand, plasticine, or just your finger, moving it along the frosted glass. The process actively develops fine motor skills in children. When using a brush, the hand learns to hold a pen for writing; working with sand allows you to enhance tactile sensations, incredibly calming the baby. Modeling with plasticine strengthens the fingers, encourages accuracy, giving scope for creative imagination.

What you need to have

It is advisable to select plasticine that is pliable and soft enough so that the child can change the shape of the element without effort. A wax or other safe mass will do. There is no need to look for multi-colored products - the main thing is that the shades mix well and are bright. Be sure to buy white and black materials to demonstrate to your little one how the transformation of color saturation occurs.

At the first stages of classes, you need to prepare for work:

  • rolling board;
  • images printed on cardboard or plastic;
  • sticks, molds;
  • decorations to give the drawing a festive look;
  • pastry syringe (it’s easy to squeeze out sausages);
  • wide tape (useful for gluing a drawing before work, so that it becomes convenient to quickly correct mistakes);
  • wet wipes to wipe plasticine-stained hands.

Recommendations from psychologists and teachers

Plasticineography is designed for children of junior, middle and senior groups. It is necessary to choose the right teaching methodology so that children will not only find it interesting, but also simple enough to understand.

Basic teaching methods:

  • Display of finished works. Here it is important to interest the kids by showing them the illustrations, as well as the actions that they will have to perform.
  • Verbal technique. You should talk to children, clearly explaining all actions.
  • Practice. You need to perform the exercises first in a playful way, showing techniques for processing plasticine, and then experiment with simple drawings.

For middle and senior groups, classes are conducted to improve the knowledge acquired, and I am allowed to make fantasy drawings.

A child loses interest in work if:

  • he was given low-quality material (plasticine that was too hard, greasy, or had a strong odor);
  • he is left to his own devices (you must definitely help and talk with him);
  • too high requirements (jobs should be selected according to age);
  • long lesson (it is necessary to take breaks).

Children drawing together on cardboard with multi-colored plasticine can strengthen their relationships. You just can’t single out someone’s work as the best. It should be explained that everyone sees the world in their own way, and it is as diverse as their images.

How to draw with plasticine?

  1. The size of the first drawings should be chosen small - ¼ of a landscape sheet.
  2. The very first drawing with plasticine will be very simple. “Draw” with your child a blue sky with white snowflakes or a yellow sun, a green field with daisies, a dotted ladybug.
  3. Then you can draw window pictures (with a frame made of plasticine strands), for example, on the theme of the seasons.
  4. If an appliqué design is being made on glass, the preparatory work will have to be done by the mother. First, we take the picture onto glass and outline the contours with gel or paint from a tube.
  5. Before starting to spread, knead the plasticine well.
  6. We paint over the background gradually, pinching off the plasticine in small pieces, but using long strokes. To smear the main background (a thin layer of plasticine), we alternately use the index finger and thumb.
  7. You can learn to mix colors (no more than 3): either apply strokes of different shades alternately, or first mix plasticine of different colors into one cone.
  8. After work, wipe the handles with a dry cloth, and then wash the handles with warm water.
