Plasticine airplane for children 5-6 years old in step-by-step instructions
Plasticine is very convenient for crafts. Let's invite the kids to make fast planes out of plasticine for February 23rd. Such gifts are suitable for both very young children 2-3 years old and older ones. Step-by-step instructions will help you quickly make the components for the flying objects, and once you connect them, try with all your might to hold them together. In practice, such airplanes quickly pick up speed and fly high in children's hands.
How to make a military plane from plasticine
Give your children a special delight from modeling from such an interesting and practical material. For a military aircraft, simple plasticine will do. But it is quite hard, so you will have to first knead it in your hands for further comfortable work.
There is also soft or airy plasticine that can be used in crafts for younger children. But domestically produced plasticine makes the figures stronger and more durable. Therefore, we will make a military aircraft from it.
In order to obtain military coloring and smooth transitions at the borders of colors, you need to roll up thin flagella of blue, green and yellow. Then wrap it around the finished part, knead and roll until the desired effect is obtained.
We sculpt the fuselage, wings, propellers and cockpit separately. Afterwards we simply connect the parts together.
By analogy, you can make a fighter like this:
Or a military plane with shells
But children in kindergarten make such crafts.
You can make a plasticine applique as a gift.
Or make the fuselage from a pine cone or an Activia bottle.
If the kids really like helicopters, then offer to make such an aircraft from light plasticine as a gift for dad
And the latest model of an excellent aircraft.
How to make a tank from plasticine
Sculpting a tank from plasticine is very interesting and entertaining. And how much pride increases when the powerful Soviet T-34 tank appears in your hands. What about the guys when they can make such serious equipment themselves? Now we'll look at a few things that will make the tracks and wheels look like the real thing.
First of all, knead the plasticine well so that it becomes softer and more flexible. If you want to achieve a protective color, then we use the same technique as with the plane above. Knead light brown and dark green colors and lightly mix with the main color until we achieve a smooth transition.
First of all, we form the body of the tank. We will proceed from its size with other details so that the proportions are respected. We also immediately make the tank’s turret, slightly narrowing at the front.
Next, we roll 4 small balls, which will later take the place of the running wheels, and ten large ones.
The next step is to flatten all the balls to make wheels 0.5 millimeters thick. In order to make supporting knitting needles and screws from the side, you can either use the edge of a plasticine knife to make cuts from the center or push it with the tip, applying the knife sideways. In the photo you will see different options.
Let's make a caterpillar belt. To do this, we roll out a long strip of black plasticine and make notches at equal distances to simulate the fastening of the track parts. Now we distribute the wheels: two small ones at the edges and five large ones in the middle. Our tank must be powerful and passable! We go around them with a caterpillar belt and repeat all the same steps for the second chassis.
Next we connect it to the body. You can simply press it, but if there are doubts that the structure will withstand further pressure from hands, then insert toothpicks or matches into the body on the sides and fasten the wheels to the protruding tip.
We will make protective tank wings from thin strips to prevent dirt from getting into the tracks. And of course the gun. A simple wooden skewer is suitable for this. Cut it to the required length and coat the entire surface with plasticine. Then we install it in its place and our tank is ready for battle.
Here is another master class in pictures on how to make a tank from plasticine. We make the wheels in the same way as in the first option. Also the caterpillar belt.
We use a cast assembly with an elevation. This will be our KV series tank. His tower is high. We make protective equipment from a contrasting color.
Making a tank from corrugated cardboard in kindergarten and school
A tank is one of the most common gifts that guys prepare for their dads, grandfathers and friends. Tanks can be of different configurations. This is a great opportunity to learn about the famous T-34 or the powerful Tiger. Moreover, such powerful all-terrain vehicles can be made from paper, socks, toilet paper rolls, and cardboard. It is crafts made from the latter material that we will consider here. Corrugated cardboard is very interesting in creativity.
Almost the entire craft will consist of twisted strips. Since you won’t find them ready-made in stores, you’ll have to work hard to cut them. Let's take blue and green colors for contrast.
A small but powerful tank will be possible even with this number of wheels. Roll four wheels into pucks: two small and two large. We coat them with glue so that in the future they do not press into the side. We also glue them together
Now we need to design the caterpillar track. Also using glue, we go around the wheels with a strip of corrugated cardboard several times.
It turns out like this. Very similar to real tank parts.
Take green cardboard and press the folds with a pen.
Glue the caterpillar tape, stepping back a little from the edges.
If desired, glue on wings with mud flaps and external fuel tanks
We also make the tower out of cardboard. Only here you need to cut the strip so that one side is narrower and the other wider. When rolled into a roll, it will be convex. To make a cannon, we twist the corrugated cardboard not across the accordion, but along it.
There are also such tank configurations
Again, from some material you can not limit yourself to just one type of crafts. Helicopters made of corrugated cardboard can be excellent gifts for February 23
And even a submarine
Look how much you can make from this wonderful material.
