DIY felt finger theater. Patterns, templates, master classes

Preparation of materials

Before starting work, you need to assemble a “utility box”, it will include all the necessary tools and materials that you cannot do without, namely:

• multi-colored soft felt 1 - 2 mm thick (country of production does not matter);
• a simple pencil and pen (professionals prefer self-disappearing fabric markers, in this case colored and white);
• 2-3 crayons with thin edges (since the details will be small);
• 2 types of sharp scissors (with blunt and sharp ends for ease of cutting patterns);
• pins or needles (the thinner the better);
• glue (as an option, “Moment Crystal”; ordinary second glue is not suitable, since it impregnates the felt and leaves marks), or a glue gun (if available);
• hole punch (for cutting out small circles);
• ready-made eyes for fairy tale characters (they are sold in handicraft stores) or beads;

• multi-colored cotton threads for hand and machine sewing;
• multi-colored satin ribbons 5 mm thick;
• thick cardboard measuring 20 cm by 30 cm (more is possible), you will need 2 sheets;
• padding polyester for stuffing the house (sold in Fabric stores).

Felt and working with it implies knowledge of the characteristics of this type of fabric , which will greatly simplify the process of sewing finger theater with your own hands and creating a pattern, namely:

• there are many types of felt (to create small parts it is more convenient to work with soft synthetic felt 1 mm thick);
• You can buy felt fabric in handicraft stores or on the Internet (both in sheets and by the meter). For fairy tale characters you will need many different colors, so it is better to purchase plain felt in sheets;
• felt does not fray or crumble when trimmed, which allows you to avoid processing the edges of the products;
• it is wear-resistant (however, with intensive use, pills form on some types of fabric);
• felt toys are very light due to the porous structure of the material;
• the fabric is very plastic and does not break when bent (hard felt can form creases when bent, so it is used for working with large parts).

How to make patterns

Before you start making patterns, it is useful to get acquainted with the types of finger theaters, which will help determine the direction of work.

Classification of finger theaters:

• A collection of toys that fit onto children's fingers, hiding them inside the doll.

• A set of characters with 2 round holes in the lower part of the body, into which the child’s index and middle fingers are inserted, creating movable legs for a fairy tale or cartoon character.

The first option is more practical and durable; these are the pattern patterns that will be offered in this article. However, if desired, any template can be slightly adjusted by adding holes and sewing the toys using the second method. You can make a finger theater from felt yourself, or find ready-made templates in books on handicrafts or on the Internet.

To make your own pattern, you need:

• determine which characters are to be “brought to life” and find what they look like;
• draw on paper the characters of the required size and all the details separately (arms, legs, cheeks, ears) or print a ready-made template from the computer screen. As a rule, toy patterns consist of the main part and the front parts;
• cut out parts;

A felt finger theater is made in several stages

• attach with pins to felt fabric and cut out according to the design without deviations;
• if the characters are planned to be double-sided, then the number of pattern pieces will double (the main thing here is consistency and not to get confused, first cut out one character and put the pieces together, then proceed to the next one). For beginning craftsmen, it is easier to start with single-sided dolls.

DIY paper finger theater

To make a finger theater from paper, you will need: a printed template, scissors, felt-tip pens or pencils for coloring, and tape.

Print out the paper dolls and cut out a few millimeters from the outlines, except for a small strip around the finger, which you can cut exactly according to the template.

Wrap the strip around your finger to get the correct diameter of the finger puppet ring, secure the strip with tape.

If you want to color your little characters, do it before cutting, or at least before you fold the strip, it will be much easier!

Finger Theater "School"

Among these finger characters you will find a teacher and students.

Funny snakes

Print the template in color or black and white. For children's fingers, you may want to reduce the size of the snakes - use the "Scale" print setting.

Cut out the snake's body along the contour and glue it together, as in the photo.

Here are the paper finger theater snake templates:

Finger theater made of paper - three-dimensional puppets

Scene

For easy storage of dolls, the stage can be made flat in the form of a book spread or voluminous from hard felt. This creates a finished decoration and an envelope for storing the toys.

Stages of creating a flat scene in the form of a book spread:

• Take 4 pieces of felt measuring 20 cm by 30 cm (or larger), 2 of which are green (this will be the inside of the scene) and 2 more pieces of any other color for the cover.
• Make flat one-sided patterns of trees, a house, the sun, clouds (they will serve as permanent decorations for the intended fairy tale (for example, in a “kolobok” it makes sense to sew a house, a path, several trees, grass and the sun).

Here is an example of the scenery for the fairy tale “At the Order of the Pike”:

• Sew the decorations onto the green pieces of felt.
• Sew 2 sheets together along the inner edge (like the binding of a book).
• Sew the cover to the finished inside of the stage and trim the edges (decorate with braid).

This is roughly what it should look like:

The advantage of a flat stage spread is its versatility for several fairy tales at the same time with similar scenery (only the characters change).

And if the decorations are not sewn on, but placed on Velcro tape, then there are even more options. An example of such fairy tales: “Kolobok”, “The Three Little Pigs”, “At the Command of the Pike”, “Turnip”, “The Thirtieth Kingdom”, “Geese-Swans”. An example of such a theater from one scene and the characters of 3 fairy tales is given below.

Stages of creating a three-dimensional scene from hard felt:

1. Gather materials: 3 large sheets of hard felt, 30*30 cm (or 30*20 cm) in size and 3 mm thick (it is possible to use thinner felt, but for strength and stability it will need to be sewn to cardboard).
2. Draw a pattern on paper of the desired shape of the scene (front part and two side parts), transfer it to the fabric, trace it with a marker and cut it out with a stationery knife or scissors.
3. Decorate the main facade of the stage with lace curtains or fabric.
4. Connect the three parts of the stage together with seams.

This is what the approximate result should be.

House for finger theater

If you plan to sew a finger theater for a fairy tale, the action of which mainly takes place in a house (for example, “Teremok”, “Three Bears”, “The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats”, “Masha and the Bear”, “Hen Ryaba”, “Zayushkina’s Hut”), then it makes sense to make the scene in the form of a house book.

Like in this photo:

And if you want to complicate your task, then you should try making a three-dimensional house from felt. Like in this picture:

How to sew a three-dimensional house - step-by-step description (guideline photo above):

1. Prepare materials (felt in 4 colors (light brown for the house, gray for the roof, orange for balconies and green for the large base), 2 types of braid for curtains).
2. Make a paper pattern of all parts of the house (according to the table):

1. Cut out all the details of the house according to the pattern.
2. First you need to sew windows, a door and a balcony onto the square walls of the house.
3. Sew curtains on the windows from braid, decorate the balcony with lace.

When sewing on the balcony, form a pocket so that later you can put a finger toy there.

1. Sew the walls of the house from 6 parts and fill it with synthetic padding.
2. Sew a balcony onto the front part of the roof and decorate it.
3. Similarly, sew a roof from 2 triangles, a base and a roof. Also fill with padding polyester.
4. Sew the roof to the base of the house.
5. For greater stability, it is recommended to sew the house to the base (which is made from 2 large identical sheets of green felt, between which cardboard is inserted and everything is sewn together at the edges).

Paper finger theater: benefits for child development

Speech development

As children interact with and play with the puppets, they organize their thoughts and improve their language.

Children naturally develop sentence structure and use active vocabulary to express their points of view. Their interactions often reflect their experiences and knowledge of the real world, giving children the opportunity to better understand this information through play.

Development of imagination

Dolls are the main toy for role-playing games and allow children to improve their creative imagination.

When a child plays, stories and characters with personalities emerge. They may feel happy, sad, or sassy and stupid.

With animal dolls, kids can simply waste their time meowing like a cat and mooing like a cow. This is, of course, good too!

The process of finger play offers a leap forward for their creativity, and as role play progresses, children will develop their language and storytelling skills without even realizing it.

Development of fine motor skills

When children manipulate finger puppets to make them move, changing their position from finger to finger, children's fine motor skills are involved.

The act of playing with dolls is also beneficial for hand-eye coordination.

All these useful skills are developed while playing with finger puppets. And if a child helps you make a finger theater out of paper with your own hands, he improves:

• cutting and gluing skills,
• motor skills,
• graphomotor skills
• creativity,
• perseverance.

turnip

Everyone's favorite children's fairy tale "Turnip" is represented by the following characters: grandmother, grandfather, granddaughter, cat, dog, mouse. The action takes place in the garden near the hut. Accordingly, the ideal stage would be a flat composition in the form of a fold-out book with a hut, trees and a large turnip (you can see how to make such a scene at the beginning of the article).

Example scene above.

An important aspect before starting work will be the step-by-step production of characters in order to maintain their sizes (animals should be correspondingly slightly smaller in size than people).

Grandparents, Granddaughter

The sewing algorithm for Grandmother and Grandfather is described in detail in the fairy tale “Ryaba Hen”. To sew a granddaughter, you should use the description of the creation of Masha from the cartoon “Masha and the Bear”.
