Bird applique: 120 photos of ideas for children's crafts and bird patterns for applique + instructions on how to make it yourself

Types of applications

Before you start learning how to make beautiful appliqués with your own hands, you should understand what types of this technique exist.

Mosaic applique - first the contours of the image are drawn, then parts of geometric shapes and different sizes are glued inside it.
If you twist colored paper into a spiral, the technique is called quilling.
For symmetrical applique, before cutting out the part, the paper blank is folded in half.
A multi-layer applique is one that is created from parts of different sizes, small ones are glued onto large ones.
If you trace the palm and use this figure as a base, you will get a palm applique.

Owl creation technique

Take cardboard - it will be the base.
Glue a twig cut from colored paper.
Now paint the background with paints, you can paint with your fingers.
Glue clouds, moon and other background elements as you wish.
Using the templates, trace the outline of the owl on the branch with a pencil.
Tear off pieces of paper and glue them inside the outline.
Make a second layer on top of the first.
You can draw the eyes and beak with felt-tip pens or make them out of colored paper and glue them on.

Interesting ideas and application patterns on the topic “Birds” in the preparatory group

Children are very fond of fantasy works, for example, interpretations on the theme “Fairytale Bird” (photo 4, 8, 14, 18). They like to choose colors and shapes of feathers according to their wishes. In this regard, the work “Firebird” (photo 8) is interesting, where the feather on the tail is represented in the form of a cascade of droplets. The “Bird of Happiness” applique looks unusually effective (photo 18): the bird is all shiny and shimmers due to the bright candy wrappers from the endowment, the decor made of lace fabric looks elegant. Photo 14 - collective work, each child painted a feather to his or her taste, and together they made the tail of a magical bird. Fantasy works also include the composition “Festive outfit for an owl” (photo 17).

Three-dimensional compositions, which we see in photos 1, 5, 6, 7, 13, 15, 20, always look beautiful. A similar effect is achieved by partially gluing the silhouette of a bird, as well as using the technique of applique from strips, applique from lumps of napkins or pieces of torn colored paper.

A charming craft is a cockerel made from dry leaves (photo 2); this application is usually done in the fall. Another rooster is also made of non-traditional material - fabric (photo 16), the variety of patch patterns gives it a bright look.

Children will probably be happy to start making crafts “Sovunya” - a character from the cartoon “Smeshariki”; it is made of simple parts, but looks quite original.

Preschoolers also love group creativity. In this regard, the works in photos 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19 are interesting (the children created the composition as a whole group or worked in a subgroup). Such activities, without a doubt, unite the guys, force them to be more attentive to each other, and jointly enjoy the results of their work. The basis of such compositions is usually prepared in advance by the teacher. This could be a tree with many branches on which the birds will be located, or a painted feeder where the birds will happily dine. Oh, where water is depicted in an unusual way - using blue and red strips of paper that convey reflections.

Photo: domestic and wild birds - rooster, cranes, firebird, swan, owl, duckling, etc.

The process of creating such a craft perfectly develops the imagination, because the character is magical and very bright.

To make the head and body, cut out a ten-centimeter square piece from colored paper.
Form a square into a triangle and bend along the larger side.
Now expand the square - it is divided into four sectors.
To get the body of the bird, glue both edges overlapping.
The belly is the larger side, and the smaller side is the back.
To create a chic ponytail, cut nine nine-centimeter strips - curl them or leave them straight.
Glue three stripes to the back, six will serve as material for making wings also on the back.
You can also make both the tail and wings using the palm technique.
You can cut out eyes and other small details from colored paper or draw them.
Attach the bird to the background on a branch of colored paper, decorate the background by painting it and gluing parts from colored paper.

To do this, there must be an adhesive layer on the cardboard sheet, as well as spot-applied glue on the leaves.
First, form the shape of a tail, then a larger leaf that stands out in shade - this will be the body of the firebird.
Paws and eyes can be made from colored paper or cardboard.
The magic bird is ready!

other methods

Tear-off - the picture is assembled from small multi-colored pieces. This technique trains perseverance because it takes much longer than the others. Additionally, fine motor skills are developed, since working with small elements is very painstaking.

Volumetric - the nest is often depicted on a paper plate or papier-mâché craft. The materials from which the product will be made can be very diverse: cotton wool, feathers, threads, dry grass, felt, paper, etc. It all depends on the child’s capabilities and imagination.

The combinations are countless. The miraculous embodiment is practiced not only in kindergartens, but also by art history professionals.

Progress of the lesson: -We go on a trip to a forest clearing. We'll go by car. How does he signal? (Children enter the group in which images of birds are pre-attached) -Listen, guys, who sings so beautifully? (Birds) -Where did they hide? Let's find them and see what kind of birds flew to us. This is a magpie. It is also called the white-sided magpie because its sides are white. This is a little sparrow. Nimble jumper. How does he tweet? Chick-chirp! -What kind of bird is this? In a red riding hood, he knocks and knocks on wood with his sharp beak. (Woodpecker). -And this is a titmouse - she has a yellow belly. All these birds live next to us both in winter and summer. - But this bird flew to us from the south. This is a swallow. It flies very quickly, catches midges, mosquitoes and other harmful insects. -Look, guys, what is this unusual bird? Where did she come from here? I think I know: this bird was made by children from another kindergarten and sent to see the world. Is it really beautiful? -Yes! - Do you want me to teach you how to make such beautiful birds? And when you do them, we will let them fly to other kindergartens to visit the children. -Let's first figure out what the bird will consist of. I will show, and you name the parts. - Head. -Which smoothly passes into the body. - Wing. (why do you need a wing?) -Tail. (why do you need a ponytail?) -Eye. (why do you need an eye?) -Beak. (why do you need a beak?) - Now show me quietly how birds fly? The birds flew, flew around and sat down quietly at the tables so as not to make noise in the forest clearing. -Look at what lies on the table in front of you. 1. A twig depicted on a leaf. 2. The body of your future bird. 3. Wing. 4. Tail. 5. Round little eye. - The first thing we do is put a twig in front of us. Then we smear the body with glue and “plant” the bird on a branch. The bird's head is at the top, and the tail will be at the bottom. Glue the wing and glue the tail. Then glue the eye and beak. -Our birds are ready, let's put them on a common tree, and they will sing clear songs for us. -Oh, how loudly the birds sang, what do they want? I think I know. They invite us to play the game “Sparrows and the Car.” (game) - What did you learn to do in the forest clearing? — Did you like our trip?

-It's time for us to return home: wave goodbye to the birds and

we get into the little car.
