Winter house
The white sheet is torn into small pieces - this will be snow. This activity is great for developing fingers. Ready-made house templates are printed and cut out. The house is pasted onto the main background, the roof is decorated with cotton wool. Nearby, snowdrifts are created with cotton material.
And at the final stage it is decorated with a previously prepared paper snowball.
Products made from cotton wool
Cotton wool discs have a good texture for making winter applique pictures. And thanks to the light shade, you can create a snow woman and snowdrifts from them. Circles are very popular in preschool institutions.
Corrugated paper
Winter applique senior group can include corrugated paper. Ready-made winter-themed templates are pasted over with pieces of multi-colored paper. Embossed paper should be cut with scissors rather than torn. The material is glued using PVA glue.
Green paper is perfect for creating Christmas trees. The material is finely chopped and glued to a light base. After drying, triangular shapes are cut out of the sheet. The parts are glued onto cool-colored cardboard to form a tree.
Snow and snowdrifts are painted on with white paint. Using a hole punch and light paper, create falling snow.
Application in the middle group on the theme “Autumn”
Preschoolers of the middle age group begin to get acquainted with geometric shapes, they form the idea that the outlines of natural objects can be similar to figures. For the lesson, prepare a set of colored paper, PVA and scissors. The cardboard base can be of any color.
Application technology "Autumn":
- Cut a strip of green paper and glue it to the bottom edge of a thick base - this will be grass-covered ground.
- Choose from a selection of paper in fall colors: red, purple, yellow, light brown, burgundy, orange.
- Encourage children to cut out different geometric shapes. Emphasize that the shapes must correspond to the actual shapes of the trees. Let the pupils look out the window and say what shape the crowns have: triangular, oval, round. Moreover, it is not the same, but in some trees it is more elongated or wider.
- Once the shapes are cut out, have the children glue them onto the cardboard along the center axis, parallel to the previously glued “ground”. Some figures should be slightly higher - these will be tall trees, others lower. They can be partially overlapped.
- When all the figures are glued, all that remains is to draw on the trunk and branches with a felt-tip pen.
Application for younger groups
Melted snowmen can easily be made with small children. The younger group cuts out on their own, because the work does not require accuracy. Next, the figures are glued onto colored paper.
A simple mitten applique is also good for the preparatory group. A mitten figurine is cut out of thick cardboard in advance, and a snowflake is cut out of a snow-white sheet. The two parts are secured to each other and the work is ready.
What and how to make an applique from leaves
What we need:
- 1. Natural material: leaves of various sizes, shapes and colors (they can be dried in advance), twigs, flowers, herbs, seeds.
- 2. Colored paper, felt, glue, scissors, paints, pencils, cardboard.

How to work with leaves:
To start working on crafts from leaves, they must first be dried. This can be done between the leaves of books, or using an iron. Store the leaves between the pages of books or newspapers.
Craft "winter"
A technique for depicting a winter landscape using small balls and a glass will be very entertaining for a child. To work, you will need several balls and a cylinder-shaped object, such as a cup.
A colored sheet is placed in the container, and the balls are dipped in white paint. Painted figures are poured into a glass and covered with a lid. Shake well and you will get a colored sheet with white streaks.

A wide variety of materials are used for winter nights. Therefore, this application is suitable for schoolchildren. For better results, just watch the video and repeat the finished master class. The result will be a nice decoration for your apartment.

The final stage will be painting with gouache. Blue or black would be perfect for it. For snow, you should choose white, and light blue should be used as a shadow. Draw black stripes on white birch. For the house and fence you should choose the desired shade of brown.

- The next application will be a combination of several main symbols of Defender of the Fatherland Day - the state flag, military equipment and medals. At the first stage, you need to make blanks from cardboard, as in the next photo.
- Then you need to make a marking on a sheet of cardboard: using a pencil and a ruler, divide the sheet into three equal parts horizontally. This will be the basis of the applique and flag.
- Now we cut out rectangles from white, red and blue paper, the dimensions of which correspond to the markings on the cardboard. Glue the colored paper blanks tightly onto the cardboard.
- Using templates, we cut out silhouettes of military equipment - a ship, an airplane and a tank - from colored paper.
- We glue the blanks to the flag so that each piece of equipment is on the same stripe of the flag. We make sure that the colors of the equipment and the flag stripes contrast with each other.
- Now we move on to the next part of the application - the medals. Using previously prepared cardboard templates, we cut out a solid blank for the medal from yellow paper.
- Then we glue a star and numbers on top of the medal, also pre-cut from colored paper according to templates.
- To make the medal more voluminous and dense, glue it to cardboard and cut it out. You can also decorate the medal by additionally coloring it with felt-tip pens.
- At the last stage, we glue the medal onto the flag and make a congratulatory inscription with felt-tip pens.
Forest trees
For work you need sheets of blue, green, yellow and brown paper. The parts are initially cut out from newspaper, then from colored material. For the background, blue paper is used, ideally velvet.
Dashes mark the points for the location of the cuttings. Each tree is carefully fixed one by one to the base using glue. Excess glue is removed with a napkin. For snow you will need white paper
You can decorate trees with multi-colored confetti. To ensure accurate work, you should wait until each tree dries individually. With this approach, the glue will not smear across the background.
