DIY military crafts step by step: 150 photos of the best craft ideas for children for school or kindergarten


Plasticine tank

As a good option for crafts on a military theme, you can choose a tank model. These combat vehicles are an integral symbol of courage and heroism. During the Great Patriotic War, these mechanisms provided enormous assistance in protecting our country from the Nazi invaders.

To make a plasticine tank you will need:

  • plasticine;
  • cardboard;
  • matches.

You need to assemble military equipment with your own hands according to the following scheme.

  • Knead the plasticine and roll the shape into a trapezoid or rectangle. To save plasticine, you can stuff cardboard inside the figure.
  • Roll two sausages out of molded material and make a border around the body of the machine.
  • Make a circle out of plasticine. This will be a turret that needs to be attached to the hull of the future tank.
  • The match must be inserted into the tower, having previously made a plasticine edging on it.
  • Caterpillars are made from round-shaped “sausages”. Black circles made of plasticine are installed inside them, which will symbolize the wheels of military equipment crafts.
  • All that remains is to decorate the tank with decorative elements (hatch, inscriptions, etc.).

You can do this DIY tank together with your child. Along the way, you can tell your child about historical events in which this technique was the hero. The resulting piece can be given as a gift to dad or other family members.

Peace to the world?

Not all parents, especially mothers, are ready to understand the fact that children not only run, scream, roar and unexpectedly jump out from around corners, but also “take prisoners,” “torture” and even “kill.” Some adults, in their denial of war games, went so far as to suggest celebrating the day of the destruction of the war toy and now it can be found on the calendar (September 7). In the USA, although they do not ban such toys, they have passed a law according to which toy pistols and other weapons must be significantly different in appearance from real ones, for example, in bright colors and have sealed barrels.

But not everyone is so wary of military toys. And now we are not talking about third world countries, where children often have access to real weapons, but about completely civilized and developed ones. So in Japan, on Boys' Day, children are given weapons, and not toy ones, but simply reduced in size, and other items that are directly related to war in the traditional Japanese sense: swords, drums, bows and samurai armor. And this does not surprise or frighten anyone.

In our country, the attitude towards military toys is usually calm. You can easily buy them in any store. And everyone has been playing “war” since Soviet times, even girls. Nowadays, these games, of course, undergo some transformation in accordance with the times, robots, blasters and other attributes that were recently fantastic, but are now becoming more and more real, appear in them. But otherwise, it’s still the same constant “war”.

So what should we do as parents? How should we perceive such games: prohibit them, treat them leniently or encourage them?

Crafts using quilling technique

This art has been known since medieval Europe as the creation of compositions using long and narrow strips of rolled paper. Nowadays people even make them from corrugated cardboard. Using this technique, you can create a three-dimensional craft (car, tank) or stick on an applique.

And now we’ll tell you how to make such a military craft for May 9 with carnations.

We will need:

  • blue cardboard,
  • George Ribbon,
  • quilling strips,

  3. Separately prepare the stems.
  4. Make green oblong molds for leaves and glue them to the stems.
  5. Give the rest of the products a similar shape.

DIY airplane

You can make a military aircraft with your own hands from simple paper. To perform origami you will need a regular sheet of white paper. You can receive a beautiful gift model according to the following instructions.

  • Take a sheet of A4 paper and fold it in half lengthwise.
  • Fold the top corners inside the paper.
  • Fold the top over and then fold in the top corners.
  • Raise the corners up, bend the halves of the central corners inward again.
  • Fold the resulting model in half.
  • Bend the side sheets in the shape of airplane wings.

Plasticine airplane

Military winged equipment can also be made from plasticine. To do this you will need a set of molding material and a little imagination.

  • You need to form a ball from a piece of plasticine. Next you need to stretch it into a sausage. This will be the body of the future aircraft.
  • From a material of the same color (preferably gray or dark green), you need to mold two wings in the form of a rectangle. It is also possible to depict the wing as a triangular figure.
  • Install the pre-formed triangle into the tail of the aircraft. Sculpt windows and airplane doors on the body. You can also decorate the wings and tail of military equipment with a red star.

Felt crafts

Do-it-yourself works made from this material look very unusual and original. To complete them you will need:

  • pieces of multi-colored fabric of different thicknesses,
  • zigzag scissors,
  • needle,
  • thread,
  • office glue,
  • green wire,
  • cardboard.

Master Class:

  1. Cut circles from red or pink felt. For one flower you need 4-6 circles with a diameter of approximately 10 centimeters.
  2. Gather each circle into a thread in the center.
  3. Sew four pieces together. For a more magnificent bud, take more circles.
  4. Cut out the base of the flower in the shape of a star from green felt.
  5. Cut a piece about 25 centimeters long from the green wire.
  6. On the last one, make a loop on top, onto which to string the bud and its base. To ensure reliability of the structure, glue the base to the petals with glue.

For greater expressiveness, the bouquet is tied with St. George's ribbon.

For example, for a postcard you need: two multi-colored stars of different sizes, a St. George ribbon, the words “May 9”, a middle circle, a white rectangle, a base. All elements are glued to a white rectangle, and it is sewn or glued to the base. With the first method, an additional layer is glued or sewn inside the card to hide the stitches.

Armed with these ideas, you can easily and simply prepare crafts for any significant date.

Warship

On Defender of the Fatherland Day, you can give a boat made by yourself. To make it you will need colored paper or a regular landscape sheet. The assembly diagram looks like this.

  • Fold a sheet of paper lengthwise into two parts.
  • Fold the sheet again along the short side. Expand the landscape sheet.
  • Bend the corners at the fold inside the sheet.
  • Fold the bottom into a rectangle. Next, unfold the workpiece and bend it again along the fold line. It should be a square.
  • Stretch the layout in different directions. The combat frigate is ready.
  • Decorate the blank using colored paper. You can also draw patterns and inscriptions with colored pencils if you used a regular landscape sheet.

Therefore, you can come up with a huge number of options to please your loved ones. It is recommended to pay attention to the interests of the person. You can choose a great gift related to your leisure preferences. For example, give a bath set to a lover of extreme relaxation.

It is recommended that a car enthusiast give a nice little thing as a gift for his “iron companion”. This could be a car fragrance or a set of beautiful seat covers.

You can also give shaving foam or a set of new fishing tackle. It is also recommended to simply say warm words of congratulations. After all, attention and emotional support will bring a storm of positive emotions and lift your spirits.

The holiday is coming - how to prepare?

Dates such as February 23 and May 9 rarely go unnoticed by educators. Legal holidays for adults coincide with creative competitions and developmental events in schools and kindergartens.

A child’s request to help with a craft should not come as a surprise to parents, so it’s worth stocking up on:
  • Free time. Yes, creativity cannot be rushed. It is necessary to discuss all possible options with the young family member and provide support at all stages.
  • Inspiration. Photos of military crafts, themed films, lessons - excellent food for creative thought.
  • Materials. Paper, glue, wood, plastic - everything goes into use! Choices should be limited only by reasonable precautions and imagination.
  • Patience. Not every project succeeds the first time - even a children's craft.
