The topic of this article is do-it-yourself winter crafts for kindergarten. That is, by the hands of the children themselves. There are some peculiarities here that must be taken into account when performing such crafts. Kindergarten children do not yet know how to perform very complex tasks. Their fine motor skills are underdeveloped, they lack strength, and they have not learned to think abstractly and creatively. Everything has its time.
Therefore, kindergarten crafts should be simple - that is, ones that any child of this age could handle. This is the first condition. And there is a second thing: although the crafts are simple, one of the adults must be present when making them. What if a child can’t do even the simplest craft? In this case, adults should prompt and help. In addition, adults should watch how children follow safety precautions when making winter crafts. Although they are simple, the children still have poor skills, their hands do not obey, and therefore, even with the simplest work, the children can get hurt.
Well, besides, adults should give kids creative ideas for crafts. It can be difficult for children themselves to come up with such ideas. Now let’s talk in more detail about winter children’s crafts for kindergarten.
Subjects of winter applications
The main subjects for winter applications are, of course, winter. It's snow, snow and snow again. Snow on the roofs of village houses, snow on bare tree branches, snow on Christmas trees, and, of course, a snowman. In addition to Santa Claus, deer, polar bears, and penguins are frequent guests of the applications.
Attributes of New Year's fun: skates and skis or winter accessories: warm mittens, hats and scarves are also popular in winter scenes. And, of course, a decorated Christmas tree.
Curly hole punchers to help
If you haven’t yet appreciated the convenience of using shaped hole punches in applique, then it’s time to buy a couple. Perfect little snowflakes that come out with just one click are simply miraculous!
Children will “spank” them with delight, and any applique decorated with such snowflakes will look much more interesting.
Why get dirty with glue?
In many circles, they teach how to prepare gifts for mothers, fathers, and grandmothers for various holidays. The most common are children's applications.
Winter is a time rich in holidays. Or maybe it’s better to learn a song or recite a poem? Mom will be happy with the child’s postcard. But the application contains great functions. This, for example, is the development of fine motor skills, artistic taste, and ideas about the world around us.
What about studying geometric shapes? Developing perseverance and perseverance is an important plus. The child gives vent to his creative abilities, and his individuality is displayed even where the results should be more or less the same. A great idea for creativity is an application on the theme “Winter” for the senior group.
Drawing + applique
The applique can be combined with a pattern. On the Internet there are a lot of pictures for appliqué depicting houses, penguins, snowmen, etc. This template just needs to be printed, cut out and glued to a base of colored cardboard
The best color for a winter background is blue or blue. The drawing is painted with paints or felt-tip pens, and everything that is snowy or white in color is filled in with appliqué.
Deer from disposable tableware
If you have a plastic plate lying around from an autumn picnic, you can use it in a winter composition. Application pictures can be found in the public domain. The work is suitable for all ages. How to do it:
- The plastic plate is cut into two parts (one is made a little larger). Next it is painted brown - this will be the body of the deer;
- horns can be made from colored paper. The child places his hand on the sheet and traces it with a simple pencil. After this, they are cut out with scissors;
- The background of the applique will be blue cardboard - a plate, pre-cut legs and horns are glued onto it.
It looks very interesting and unusual. Quite suitable for a winter competition.
Cityscape
If you are wondering how to make winter applique with your own hands, use the following idea. For a winter cityscape you will need colored paper and cotton pads.
Identical rectangles are cut out of paper of different colors to depict multi-story buildings. On them you need to stick small squares of blue or yellow windows, as if there were lights in the windows, if we are depicting an evening landscape.
For doors, you can use paper in a contrasting color. Half a cotton pad will replace snow-covered roofs.
In order for the composition to look harmonious, the width of the “houses” should be equal to the width of the cotton pad. The picture can be simple, in one row, or with perspective.
Then the rows of houses - “streets” - begin to be glued from the middle part of the sheet, the bottom row of each street is covered with a row of “drifts” of whole cotton pads, moving down, the next row of houses is glued in a checkerboard pattern.
The bottom of the applique is also decorated with “drifts”. A snow-covered tree will add charm to the city landscape; the trunk is cut out of brown colored paper, and the crown is depicted with cotton pads.

Music by A. Vivaldi “The Seasons” (winter)
Troika, troika arrived. The horses in that trio are white. And in the sleigh sits Queen Belokozha, white-faced. As she waved her sleeve, she covered everything with silver.
That's right, guys. This is winter. Look at the posters, paintings. What a beauty! This year Winter came late. He doesn’t want to give a white outfit to the earth and trees.
Let's play. Suddenly Winter will send us white snow.
Game "Cold Words"
Winter, frost, refrigerator, snow, ice cream, blizzard, cold, snowdrift, ice, blizzard.
Well done, children! They came up with good words for Winter.
How many winter months are there? What are their names?
Now let's play the game “December, January, February”
December - hands up
January - forward
February - omit.
How attentive and smart you are!
Guys! Many artists loved to depict winter. They choose very beautiful or somewhat unusual views of nature.
But the beauty of nature can be conveyed not only with colors, music, words (A.S. Pushkin “Winter Morning” ), but also with the help of paper. Yes Yes.
What is the name of the art when images are created from paper? (Applique) Today you and I will also turn into artists and create. Let's create a winter landscape from paper. Now let's rest a little.
Fizminutka
A blizzard blows over the fields, over the mountains, over the forests. Look to the right, to the left. Bullfinches are sitting on the branches. (flapping their “wings” ) It’s very cold in winter. The birds want to go home (squat) We will feed the bullfinches (sprinkle food) It will be more fun for the birds (jump in place, clapping your hands)
Examining a sample
Based on what form we will create a winter landscape today? That's right, based on a circle (cardboard plate).
- What is in the center of the plate? (house) What parts does it consist of? What colour is he?
- What is located to the left of the house, what is shown on the right?
- What is the best way to arrange these details on a plate?
- What colors of paper do we use?
Now let’s prepare the handles for appliqué.
P/g "Winter walk"
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (we bend our fingers) We went for a walk in the yard (we walk along the table with our fingers) We sculpt a snow woman, (we “roll” a snowball) We fed the birds with crumbs, Then we rode down the hill (we move with the index finger of our right hand on the left palm) And they were also lying in the snow (shake off palms) Everyone came home in the snow, ate soup and went to bed.
Teacher's explanation
First, we cut out the elements we need for our work. We lay out the house.
- What color is the house?
- We will make a house from a rectangle and a triangle.
- Which elements do we have first, and which ones later?
- What will we use as snow? (cotton wool + napkins)
- How will we cut down the trees?
Independent activities of children
The teacher prompts, corrects, and helps those children who need help.

Applications based on ready-made templates
A wonderful template for a winter applique in the form of a penguin or snowman can be downloaded on the Internet. An interesting effect is obtained if you use foam tape rather than glue to glue parts. This way the parts do not fit tightly together, and the image becomes more voluminous. The main thing is to think in advance about the sequence of gluing the parts.

OD on the three-dimensional application “Friendly family of snowmen” using the technique of folding paper with an accordion with children 5 years old
Teacher of the highest qualification category Kurnina Lyubov Vladimirovna MBDOU kindergarten No. 54 “Teremok”
Kovrov, Vladimir region.
Dear colleagues, I bring to your attention a photo report from the OD on the three-dimensional application “Friendly Family of Snowmen”
with 5-year-old children. The basis…
Applications from “palms”
Children's favorite hand appliques are also popular in winter themes. Green “palms” make a wonderful Christmas tree, which children can decorate to their taste with ready-made stars, bows (such shaped hole punches also exist), sparkles, buttons, sequins, and anything else.
Do you remember the poem “It was in January.”? Tell it to your child while you glue on ten bunny faces peeking out from under the Christmas tree paws.
Velvet applications
Among the various photos of winter appliqué, there are many interesting options using multi-colored velvet and woolen threads. You can cut a mitten or a hat from velvet. The top of the hat can be decorated with a real pom-pom made of thread or a cotton ball; the bottom of the mitten can be covered with scraps of cotton wool, which will depict a fur edge.
You can embroider a snowflake on a mitten with woolen thread or depict a knitted pattern with pieces of multi-colored velvet. And the hat can be striped from different colors of velvet.
Large story collage
Older children can create a “Winter Fun” applique. If a large group of children has gathered, you can make a large collage. To begin, draw a pencil sketch depicting hills from which skiers will roll, ice slides for sledding, a skating rink for figure skaters or hockey players. Mark places for fir trees and birches.
It is good to imitate the crown of birch trees with crumpled pieces of a white napkin. For Christmas trees, use triangles of green paper or quarters of cotton pads.
Figures of people can be drawn with pencils and felt-tip pens and cut out. We cut out skis and ski poles from strips of colored paper, and ice cubes or “cheesecakes” from bright circles. The blades of the skates can be completed.
When working with children, the main thing is not to dictate any rules to them, but only to introduce them to the possibilities of using different materials, to offer some idea, and then the uncontrollable children’s imagination will do everything itself.
Tissue paper polar bear
The original craft was made from tissue paper. It is thin, folds well and is very easy to use (doesn't cut your fingers). However, if you don’t find one in the house (which is very likely), you can use a similar packaging option. When buying new equipment, you can find white thin paper inside the box; you don’t have to throw it away right away. Also for work you will need a 0.5 liter plastic bottle, white paint, and a skein of black thread. Instructions:
- Take a disposable paper plate, which is then painted white.
- Next, the bottom of the bottle is cut off, about 5-6 cm.
- The cut bottom is glued in the middle of the plate. It also needs to be painted white.
- The bottom is the nose of the composition; by measuring out a little space, eyes are made from black skeins of thread, and they are also glued to the plate.
- Next, the plate is completely covered with glue until it sets - sprinkled with scraps of tissue paper.
What paint to use is up to everyone to decide for themselves; the standard is gouache. The main thing is not to leave the composition near the battery to dry. Due to the high moisture content, the work will appear crumpled. A black bear nose can be made from a pompom.
