Applique machine for junior, middle and senior groups - a selection of interesting photo ideas, tips and master classes

Applique technique

One of the most attractive activities for children is appliqué. Kids are delighted with the brightness of the paper used and the variety of materials; they really enjoy cutting out figures, laying them out and gluing them. There are quite a lot of types of applique according to the execution technique. Let's look at what a machine made in the most familiar way (from paper), but using different types of manufacturing, will look like.

Tear-off applique “Funny Car”

This method allows you to convey the texture of the image and create the image in bright colors. For this work you need multi-colored candy wrappers, cardboard, scissors, a brush, and glue.

Execution sequence:

• do not tear the candy wrappers too finely;
• Glue the resulting pieces onto the base (cardboard, landscape sheet), trying not to leave gaps, and let dry thoroughly;
• on the reverse side draw the outline of the car;
• carefully cut out the silhouette according to the design;
• turn over, finish the job by gluing the wheels, windows, headlights.

The resulting work can be a wonderful gift in the form of a postcard. By the way, you can diversify the picture with flowers and trees made in the same style.

Overlay applique

This technique makes it possible to create a multi-color image. The main point in this type is the preparation of templates from colored paper. Fragments are superimposed and glued layer by layer onto the drawn outline of the car. It is very important to follow the sequence of performing such an application. First, large-sized elements are glued, and smaller ones are glued onto them.

Ideas for younger ones

Among the most interesting topics and works, applications on the environment should be highlighted. It is so important for children at a young age to contact the world around them and develop their perception. To encourage this topic, you can create abstract applications from geometric shapes.

Traffic light applique

For this simple work we need a rectangle and circles of colored paper of the appropriate color. All children need to do is trace the figures on cardboard, carefully cut them out, and apply them to a sheet of cardboard using glue.

Applique Machine

An applique machine made of colored paper for kids is one of the most favorite themes! It will be especially interesting for boys. For this application, you can create a ready-made template and distribute it to children. Children cut out the car body according to a template (everyone can make a car from their favorite color), after which wheels and other additional parts are cut out. The entire detailing process depends on how detailed your vehicle will be.

Applications from postcards

For this kind of application, it is enough to circle any stencil on cardboard and stick the application mosaic on it. Old postcards or photographs will work great. To do this, you can finely cut pieces of the postcard, after which the material is applied to the adhesive surface. It turns out to be quite an interesting abstract work. You can make a fish, a leaf, fairy-tale characters or your favorite cartoon characters.

Mosaic (modular application)

This technique is based on geometric figures of different sizes, colors, and textures.

Let's try to make the “Truck” applique using the mosaic method. What is needed for this:

1. Prepare the necessary parts. They can be made “by eye”, or adhere to certain sizes. Colored paper is used for this work.
2. We lay out the blanks in front of the baby and help him choose the priority parts.
3. Together we lubricate each part of the truck and stick it on a sheet: the long rectangle is glued first and smoothed out thoroughly (the kids do this process very diligently);
4. Next, the cabin is glued - first we glue a rectangle in a vertical position, and then a square (car hood);
5. then we decorate the cabin with windows;
6. Finally, we glue the circles - wheels.

The work is not at all difficult, the kids enjoy doing it. A small nuance - in order to interest the child in the upcoming process, involve him in the preparation (put on an apron, prepare the necessary things for work and the workplace itself). During the manufacture of the truck, you can recite all the actions, examine the figures, and pay attention to the color and size of the parts.

Symmetrical applique

This technique is good because the child will clearly see (and try to do it himself) the receipt of two completely identical samples. Using this type of application, you can make an application from the series: cars that help people.

"Important Fire Truck"

Together with the children, prepare and cut out the necessary parts using the paper folding method. The sheet is folded in half and a certain contour is applied. By cutting out and unfolding the sheet, you will get absolutely identical parts, for example, absolutely even, round, identical wheels, rectangular windows, doors, cabin, stairs. The preparatory stage of this technique is very attractive to children. They are very serious about making the correct machine parts, so this type of transport is extremely important in difficult firefighting situations.

War machine

If a child is interested in military equipment, then he will be interested in assembling some kind of military vehicle.

In this case, there are two options for a military vehicle.

The first option is using the finished printout presented below:

The second option is to create a car based on the principle of a fire engine.

To create such a car, various boxes are also selected, connected to each other and painted or covered with paper of the required color.

Tape appliqué method

This method is somewhat similar to the symmetrical technique of visual activity. The difference is in the number of identical figures. To get the selected silhouettes, you will need a sheet of paper (width and length selected in accordance with the intended image), fold it like an accordion, draw an outline and cut out the image.

This method complements the application itself well. For example, a truck is carrying New Year's gifts to children. The truck is made using the most common technique - gluing templates, but using the tape method you can create a background: an alley of fir trees or trees.

Silhouette applique

This method is used when working with older children who are proficient with scissors.

"Ambulance"

To complete this work, you must first make sketches. First, the outline of the car is drawn, carefully cut out and glued to the base. Then we draw the wheels, cut them out, and glue them to the car. In the same way we make windows and a red cross. Alternatively, the car can be drawn with wheels.

Paper applique is the most familiar, familiar and easy way to make an attractive craft with your baby. However, there are many types of this fine art that use completely different materials.

Seeds and cereals in application

Special attention is paid to the development of fine motor skills, as they play an important role in the development of the baby’s speech. Therefore, kindergartens use various themes of cereal appliqué.

“Naughty bus” - semolina applique

What you need to prepare for this craft:

• semolina;
• cardboard, size and color are selected individually;
• PVA glue and brushes;
• simple pencil, paints, gouache;
• markers.

Draw a bus on cardboard with a simple pencil. This will allow, if necessary, to adjust the silhouette. Then we will outline the outline with a felt-tip pen to clearly highlight all the elements and details of the transport. We glue the parts separately with a brush, sprinkle them with semolina, let them dry and thoroughly shake off the remaining semolina. At first we work together with the child, then you can invite him to do the work on his own. When sprinkling the cereal, you need to draw the baby’s attention to ensure that the contours outlined with a felt-tip pen do not fall asleep. This will come in handy when applying paint. When the bus is ready, we begin painting. You can first select an illustration with a funny bus. We use paint or gouache. The work will look more interesting if you make a frame from the same semolina and paint it.

Working with semolina will give your baby a large number of indescribable tactile sensations. In the process of making this application, variations are possible with various cereals and seeds.

Appliqué lesson in the senior group

The implementation of applications in the senior group is based mainly on a combination of different geometric shapes

This is interesting. Applique is a very ancient art form. Initially, our ancestors used it to appease the gods and performed it on animal skins as a basis. For the image itself, fur, leaves, etc. were used. In the Middle Ages, applique became the property of knights, who, by making amulets, protected themselves from the enemy. Today, appliqué is considered an integral attribute of children's creative development.

Applications are perceived by many adults as one of the ways to keep children busy and to please their relatives with touching crafts - they say, the day in kindergarten was not in vain. But in fact, the role of this type of composition is much more significant. After all, the application develops

• logical thinking (by reinforcing the concepts of geometric shapes, children try to transform them from one to another, for example, from a circle to a hexagon);
• creative abilities (as well as a sense of composition, because the children will have to correctly and beautifully distribute the details on the base sheet);
• ability to work in a team and benefit from the experience of other people;
• the ability to independently cut out parts;
• develops finger motor skills and visual acuity;
• promotes neatness.

Tasks

The teacher’s goal is to involve children in the preparatory stage as much as possible, as this develops in them

• responsibility for the quality of the result (if you haven’t prepared some detail in advance, then the craft may not work out at all);
• ability to plan your work;
• sense of time (when you need to calculate how much to spend on preparation so that there is time left for creativity).

Preparatory stage on the topic

Children should definitely be involved in the preparation of appliqué classes, so they will develop responsibility for the results of their work

The imagination of a kindergarten teacher can only be compared with the imagination of the child himself.

Materials

To make applications as part of the study of modes of transport, in particular trolleybuses, you can use

• paper;
• cardboard (including thick paper, which is used for packaging men's shirts);
• pieces of fabric;
• plasticine;
• natural materials (for example, leaves, pine cones, acorns), etc.

These materials can be used both for making the trolleybus itself and for the base for the picture. To decorate or decorate a trolleybus (for example, an advertising banner on the body), you can offer sequins, adhesive rhinestones, colored confetti, etc.

Of course, without the material and technical base there will be no work. So little creators need to be provided

• comfortable chairs standing near the tables;
• necessary supplies (scissors, glue, tablecloth for creativity).

What size parts are appropriate?

Despite the fact that children in the older group are almost adults, it is still difficult for them to work with crafts whose dimensions exceed the parameters of a standard A4 sheet. So in the case of a trolleybus, you should limit the size of the base and the figure itself. Since in the process of work it is necessary to repeat information about geometric shapes, the size of small parts should be such that children can not only turn, for example, a circle into a hexagon, but also be able to count the angles of the resulting figure without covering it entirely with their own fingers. So the optimal applique size is A4 for the base and ½ A 4 for the trolleybus itself.

What can children do?

The guys in the older group already have an idea of ​​​​working with applications: they often do it in class. So it is quite reasonable that the preparation of parts and accessories falls on their shoulders. Thus, kids can be given a number of instructions.

• Prepare the necessary tools. Usually this is a special box in a closet in a group where scissors, glue, brushes, etc. are located, that is, the guys just have to take it out of the box and lay out everything that each “creator” needs.
• Organize your workspace. Cover the tables with oilcloth and position a chair so that it is comfortable to sit and work.
• Cut the blanks according to the pattern suggested by the teacher. If we are talking about paper applique, then these are circles-wheels, a rectangle-interior, squares-windows, as well as strips for rod-collectors (what we call “horns”).

Motivation

As a motivating task, you can illustrate the movements of finger gymnastics with a short poem about a trolleybus

In order for the preparatory stage not to absorb all the enthusiasm of little artists, the little ones need to be properly motivated before starting to perform the actual application. There are several options that can be used alone or in different combinations.

Survey

To begin with, you should ask the kids how they get to the kindergarten. After the answers “by car”, “by bus”, etc. follow, we can move on to the conclusion that all these types of modes of transportation are called “transport”. And the last “bridge” to the topic: a task to list the types of transport known to children.

Riddle poems

Children love to answer in chorus.

For example,

I'm running, holding on to the wires

I will never get lost!

- Oh, what a long mustache! You can get hooked! Why don't you, my friend, shave in the morning!? -What are these strange words? I don’t have a mustache, but two! “The most important thing for us is the mustache!” - Everyone will say troll-boo-sy!

Fairy tales

This is one of the most effective techniques not only to motivate children to complete a task, but also to develop the speech of little toddlers.

The Tale of the Sad Trolleybus

Tale about Trolleybus

Pictures, posters depicting a trolleybus

Visualization is a mandatory element when working with applications. Moreover, these should be both drawn versions and photographs depicting real trolleybuses.

Observation

If possible, during a walk you can watch real trolleybuses, discuss their design, talk about current and wires. If this is not possible, then you can devote a few minutes of play time to looking at toy trolleybuses and comparing them with already known buses.

Lesson note plan

In the lesson notes on application, it is necessary to indicate the time allotted for each stage.

First, we formulate the goals and objectives of the lesson. For example, goals: to continue work on constructing geometric shapes according to a model, to teach how to cut circles by cutting off corners from square shapes, to develop an interest in artistic activities.

Tasks could be the following: teach children to make circles from squares, continue to develop the skill of working with scissors, and instill neatness and accuracy in work.

As for the formulation of a mandatory element of any lesson in the senior group related to speech development, on the application it can be vocabulary work (familiarity with the concepts of “gasoline”, “ground transport”, “schedule”, “stop”)

After the introductory part, we move directly to the course of the lesson, which includes three stages:

• introduction or motivation - rhymes, fairy tales (no more than 7 minutes);
• the main part is doing crafts together with the teacher (18 minutes);
• the final stage is summing up, the teacher praises the children, a spontaneous exhibition of works is formed on the magnetic board (5 minutes).

Example of a summary

If there is very little time for the application, then you can invite parents to complete the task at home: find suitable pictures and stick them on the base cardboard to make a trolleybus

Straw applique “Car”

This beautiful material turns the product into a real work of art. An important point is its preparation for work: assemble, open, and dry in time. Then the scrap is cut and ironed. Straw appliqué is best done in small groups. Each team can choose their own car.

Execution steps:

• select a sketch;
• each detail is located on tracing paper;
• the prepared straw must be glued to the front side of the tracing paper;
• the strips are folded in such a way that the gaps are not visible and extend beyond the contour lines;
• turning the entire workpiece over to the wrong side, the excess paper with straws is carefully trimmed with scissors;
• All parts of the product are laid out against the background, glued and given time for final drying under pressure.

At this time, you can look at the cars they have chosen with your children, talk about their purpose, remember the verse about cars, and play with toy cars.

Dry plants are excellent preparations for application

How to glue a racing car

The second version of the car could be a racing car.

Such a model will be created with great enthusiasm. To make the toy interactive, it is recommended to use ready-made templates.

To create a racing car using ready-made templates, a kind of patterns or developments, there are a huge number of blanks.

They differ only in their complexity.

There are templates where it is necessary to connect a small number of parts at the design stage.

There are also templates; you will have to cut a huge number of them in order to get an interesting work at the end.

To create a racing car, print one of the selected templates, preferably in color.

Next, we cut out the blank with all the details and prepared joints.

We glue the joints with glue.

Of course, the best option would be to create such a car from thick cardboard. After all, with the help of a cardboard toy, a child will be able to play.

Unusual applique for children

Cotton appliqué is a rather unusual form of fine art. Classes develop the child’s artistic horizons, instill not only hard work and perseverance, but also accuracy during work. They are excellent exercises for improving fine motor skills. The scope for children's imaginations is unusually wide, and it can increase significantly if the cotton wool is tinted.

For this type of application you need special cotton wool (100% cotton), velvet paper, a stationery knife, tracing paper, paper clips, scissors, and transfer paper. This process takes place with the mandatory participation of adults.

"A funny car on a winter day"

Choose a picture of a funny car. You should consider in which places the cotton wool should remain white, where to use colored cotton wool, and where to make the cotton wool a non-fluffy material. This application can be done in different ways.

First method:

1. Use tracing paper to copy the drawing and attach it to velvet paper with paper clips. Next, the adult cuts out the outline of a certain part with a stationery knife.
2. We fill the cut out part with cotton wool (some of the material can be pre-painted in different colors), while the weight of the drawing remains on the paper.
3. This is how we do all the work. Preference is given to unpainted cotton wool, since the machine went for a walk on a winter day.

Second method:

1. Using carbon paper, we transfer the picture onto the base, try to ensure that the outline is an extremely clear imprint.
2. If necessary, use an eraser to remove any dirt from the base.

This winter picture will look best on a blue or blue background. You can make snow, a snowman, and snow-covered trees from small pieces of cotton wool. The result will be a real winter landscape.

Use the applique to create together with your child. On special websites you can get acquainted with a catalog of proposed ideas and see photos of finished works.
