How to make an autumn craft "Umbrella"?

An autumn craft for the Umbrella kindergarten always looks very attractive. Even kids can make an umbrella out of paper or any natural material. Consider also making an umbrella for school step by step.

With their own hands, making a simple craft in the form of an umbrella is within the power of children of any age, it is so simple. In addition, there are a great many options for the manufacture of such products. Let's pay attention to some of them.

In order to make an umbrella-shaped applique, you need to stock up on cardboard, colored paper, scissors, glue, pencils or paints.

This is the easiest thing to do for a kindergarten. The work includes several steps.

• A rectangle should be cut out of colored paper, then folded with an accordion. Any small child can do this. True, for this you need to try - the folds should be even, of the same size.
• Now you need to bend the accordion in half and glue the sides together. In principle, the umbrella has already turned out, if the accordion is stretched.
• Next, we need two clouds - we will carefully cut them out of blue or light blue paper.
• Raindrops are easy to do. The technique is called "break applique". And no scissors are needed. With your hands, you must first tear the paper into thin strips, and then tear them into small pieces. The edges will turn out blurry, uneven - like real raindrops.
• It's time to put the applique together on a piece of paper or cardboard. First, we will glue the accordion-shaped umbrella. The pen can be drawn, and can also be made in the form of an applique. Place clouds above the umbrella, and then drops of rain.

This master class will help the children make a voluminous and beautiful umbrella. For this you need to take a sheet of colored paper, glue, pencil, scissors.

• First, cut out a circle from colored paper. We divide it into 6 segments. But to complete the umbrella, only 4 pieces will be needed.
• We fold each of the segments into a cone-shaped bag. We glue it so that it does not turn around.
• We glue 4 such cones to the base so that their sharp ends converge at one point.
• The cone umbrella is almost complete. With a triangle of colored paper, you need to mask the top and make the handle of the umbrella. You can decorate the craft at will.

And here's how to make a rainbow voluminous umbrella.

You will need the following materials and tools:

• double-sided colored paper;
• cocktail tube;
• scissors;
• pencil;
• glue.

Stages.

• The first step is to cut 15 paper circles of different colors. The diameter of each is 10 cm.
• Each circle is folded in half, then again in half - you get the fourth part of the circle. Thus, we add all the circles.
• Glue the quarters together, as shown in the figure. It is important to match colors like on a rainbow.
• We close the circle by gluing the extreme parts together. That is, the first and last quarters.

It is interesting for both adults and children to work with materials that nature gave us. Such crafts are simple, suitable even for preschoolers.

Such an umbrella is made from real maple leaves. They can be collected in the park, in the forest and dried. The advantage of this material is that such autumn leaves are very diverse both in shape and in color and shade. Making an umbrella - this attribute of a rainy autumn - is suitable as an independent work on the theme of "autumn" for a kindergarten or school exhibition.

Let's take a look at a simple and easy-to-understand step-by-step guide on how to make a craft to get inspired by your creative mood. Here is a list of everything you need to create an autumn leaflet applique.

You will also need:

• velvet wire;
• a sheet of cardboard;
• scissors;
• glue.

In the step-by-step instructions, we have described all the steps for creating an applique from dry maple leaves. Together with your child, you can easily make this craft and not get confused in the creative process.

Let's consider each stage of work.

• First you need to form a velvet wire umbrella cane. To make the cane look like a real one, bend it at the end.
• Cut out a semicircle from a sheet of cardboard. This is the main part of the umbrella, and subsequently we will attach our leaf decor to it.
• Maple leaves and rowan berries will be used as decorations.
• To fix them, you need to coat the semicircular base of the umbrella with glue, on which we attach the leaves. And to make the umbrella brighter, we take leaves of different colors. You can stick berries on top for beauty. Or whatever your fantasy tells you.

For crafts, not only leaves are used, you can also decorate an autumn umbrella with flowers. To do this, you will need to take any master class on making an umbrella from cones, and place dried flowers in the cones. If everything is glued on top of velvet paper, for example, then such a craft can act as a postcard or simply become a panel on the wall.

Crafts on the theme of autumn should be done in a good mood so that the work will please children and adults. It is important to devote a certain amount of time to this activity, not to rush anywhere. Then everyone will get only pleasure from creativity.

When working with plasticine or glue, cover the work surface with an oilcloth, newspaper or a special board for creativity. And the freelance artist himself should be dressed in an apron and oversleeves. Then there will be no problems with extra washing or cleaning.

It is very important to teach your child how to use scissors correctly and safely.

• The tool must be in good working order, firmly attached, well adjusted and sharpened.
• Scissors can only be used in the workplace. If you need to put them, do it with the rings towards you. Serve them to someone - rings first.
• During work, the movement of the blades must be monitored.
• Do not leave scissors open. Store them in a case with the blades down.
• And, of course, use the instrument for its intended purpose, do not play with it, do not bring it to your face.
