Entertaining lessons on sculpting figures from plasticine. Fun plasticine crafts for children 5-6 years old

For children of preschool age, you can come up with many entertaining activities, a special place among them is occupied by modeling from plasticine. Thanks to this type of creativity, parents will be able to instill in their child a love of creativity, develop fantasy, imagination, and fine motor skills. In addition, by making figures from plasticine, the baby learns to be independent.

What is plasticine and how is it useful?

clay was used in kindergartens to make handicrafts : the classes were so exciting that teachers often had to wash tables and chairs stained in a fit of creativity, and parents had to wash the young sculptors themselves.
Everything changed in 1955, with the start of industrial production of plasticine, a new material for children's creativity, which was a mixture of powdered clay, wax, animal fat, and ceresite. Special additives prevented the mass from drying out, allowing it to be reused - it was a sensation! The demand for plasticine was so great that its inventor, Joe McVicker, became a dollar millionaire at the age of 27.

Nowadays, the composition of plasticine has changed somewhat and now it practically does not stick to your hands, is painted in different colors, and is even more plastic. Teachers and psychologists advise starting modeling lessons with your child at the age of 2, and then by the age of 5-6 he will independently come up with crafts and implement ideas with his own hands. The benefits of such an activity for preschoolers are difficult to overestimate.

Mental development

Small children explore the world with their hands; they definitely need to touch the object of interest - a simple action develops the nervous and visual systems, coordination. Rolling pieces of plasticine with your fingers makes both hemispheres of the brain work simultaneously and improves several skills:

Fine motor skills are necessary for the development of speech, stimulation of logical thinking, and the ability to mix colors and change the shape of a craft reveals figurative, abstract perception;
By creating the details of a new craft with their own hands, children 5-6 years old prepare a brush for writing ;
Children who are passionate about modeling learn concentration and perseverance;
The desire to achieve results trains patience and the habit of always finishing what you start.

Having learned to sculpt from plasticine, children 5-6 years old try to remember new interesting images (cartoon characters or people they just like), and then repeat them in detail in their crafts.

Psychological condition

The recommended time for modeling from plasticine at home is evening. A quiet activity reduces the baby’s excitability and helps him fall asleep comfortably. Child psychologists have long taken note of the beneficial properties of modeling:

Passive dialogue . Plasticine crafts will tell you what children are usually silent about. Conflicts in the family, fears, complexes are reflected in creativity;
Overcoming fears . If you give your phobia a physical shell of plasticine, you can simply crush it and change it, fashion it into something joyful and good;
Children, working with plasticine, get the opportunity to express negative emotions (pain, anger, anxiety) in a socially acceptable form, without scandals and hysterics;
Surprisingly, many unsociable, problem children change their behavior due to a common hobby with their peers, they find friends and become more tolerant of others.

Interest, excitement, joy from success, sadness from failure, hope, satisfaction - this is not a complete list of emotions experienced by a child while making crafts from plasticine. Hobby helps to develop a psychologically multifaceted personality capable of deep experiences.

Clay or plasticine?

Undoubtedly, clay crafts are more durable, but there is also more hassle with clay. This includes not only washing the young sculptor after work; if you want to preserve the clay product, then it must be fired after sculpting. Plasticine leaves virtually no marks on your hands, does not require firing or coating after completion of work, and can also be reused.

Species diversity

Initially, there are two types: based on paraffin or wax. They are divided into:

Medium density mass. Used for normal work. Easy to knead, holds any shape;
Soft (waxy). Great fun for kids. It does not need to be kneaded first. Easy to smear;
Sculptural. It is designed for children over five years old. It is designed for modeling wireframes;
Ball. Does not stain hands or surfaces.

At what age do they sculpt from plasticine?

It is believed that it is better to start modeling from the age of 1. Until one year old, the baby would rather try to chew plasticine than become interested in the creative process. But children are all individual, so you can try to show your child the process, and if interest is not shown, then postpone this matter until later.

From one to three years of age, children learn to control their hands; at this age it is good to show the child simple actions with plasticine:

tear off pieces from plasticine;
roll balls;
flatten, crush the balls with your palms or improvised means;
make sausages of different thicknesses;
roll sausages into rings;
combine finished parts into a common craft.

Until the age of three, it is better to use special soft plasticine for babies.

At 4-5 years old, a child already uses his hands quite well and will be able to work with ordinary plasticine, and crafts can be more complex and interesting.

What you need to work with plasticine

In addition to a set of colorful clay, consider a work surface for modeling. To prevent the furniture from deteriorating, you can use a special board for modeling, or replace it with a piece of cardboard, oilcloth, or a regular plastic cutting board.

A spatula for modeling will come in handy when working with a stack. Also having a rough idea of what exactly you will sculpt, you can prepare additional accessories for crafts. These can be natural materials, such as nuts, cones and pebbles, or artificial decorations such as beads, it all depends on the ideas of the authors.

Features of modeling for children 5-6 years old

To prevent your child from getting bored with making crafts from plasticine, you need to create the most convenient conditions for creativity and buy the necessary equipment :

A board made of plastic or wood. It can be plain, but it is better to choose a work surface with a beautiful pattern;
Knife . Usually, a set of plasticine comes with a small plastic knife for cutting pieces and creating decorations on crafts. If the tool is not in the box, use a teaspoon;
Stencils for plasticine. They resemble plastic cookie cutters and can be replaced with them. Purpose - cutting out flat figures from material rolled out on a board;
Oilcloth on the table, apron . If a fidget, carried away, stains everything around with plasticine, it is useless to scold him. It’s better to play it safe in advance by protecting your table and clothes.

Older preschoolers already know how to use a plasticine knife and roll the material into balls and sausages. The time has come for more interesting activities - sculpting simple figures of animals, flowers, people. With the help of your mother, you can master the technique of creating pictures from plasticine. In general, the reasonable participation of parents in the creative process stimulates children, gives significance to their activity and fosters responsibility - looking at adults, the child will try twice as hard. Don't forget to praise your child , your approval is very important to him.

Step-by-step description of crafts

So, everything is ready for work, you can start creating. Let's take a step-by-step look at some simple examples of interesting crafts for kids.

Plasticine hedgehog with seeds

This funny hedgehog is easy to make and looks very creative and cool. To work you will need brown plasticine for the body, beads for the eyes and ordinary black sunflower seeds.

Roll a ball out of brown plasticine.
On one side we pull the ball out a little so that it looks like a drop.
The eyes and nose can also be made from plasticine, or they can be replaced with beads.
Place sunflower seeds on the back of the hedgehog, sharp ends up.
When the entire back is covered with “needles,” place the finished craft on a piece of cardboard. You can decorate the back of the hedgehog with a miniature plasticine mushroom or apple.

Other ideas

What else can be molded from light and pliable plasticine? After watching the video tutorials, you can easily create funny figures. For example, create a lion cub basking in the sun. Or the lazy Seal. Make a muzzle from a gray circle. For the body you need a thick sausage. Insert the backrest into it and connect it to the head. Decorate the flippers and face. The technology resembles the design of a dolphin. Use a sharp stick to create a relief silhouette.

Storing plasticine crafts

The child put a part of his soul into each plasticine figurine, so you can’t throw away a craft, even if it’s far from perfect . Children's creativity must be treated with respect - the neglect of adults greatly hurts young masters.

Of course, you won’t be able to store absolutely all your crafts. Therefore, immediately agree with your child that only the best works , and all the rest will again be turned into mass for modeling. As the “storage” fills up, you can give away some of the exhibits to family and friends, leaving only an emergency supply - figurines that are especially dear to the baby.

It will soon become clear that the “gold fund” collects a lot of dust and needs protection. Available methods for preserving plasticine crafts:

Plastic containers . Large, convenient containers with transparent walls are ideal for storing plasticine figures: they provide a good overview and protect from dust;
Varnishing . If the craft is intended for active play, it can be coated with hairspray - once it hardens, it will give rigidity to the figurine. A similar and more durable option is nail polish;
Photo . An album with photographs of plasticine crafts and their author in the process of creation will delight the whole family for many years. In digital format, crafts will live a long, happy life, and parents will have the opportunity to gradually get rid of products that have lost their presentable appearance. Such a separation is the least painful for children, because the result of their efforts was appreciated and perpetuated.

Consumables

As with any other activity, you need to first prepare all the necessary elements. The main thing is that you need high-quality mass for modeling in a preschool educational institution. It is convenient to create any kind of toys from Playdo. Now it is in greatest demand. Airy plasticine leaves your hands clean. It is softer and does not crumble. It is very convenient to work with him. Additional tools:

Special board;
A small rolling pin for rolling out. They also have curly patterns;
Various molds.

Stores sell ready-made kits that contain everything you need, even more. Mixers, toasters, pizzeria - these are some of the popular sets.

Plasticine butterfly step by step

A bright butterfly craft will be an excellent gift for someone close to you or will simply decorate a collection of plasticine exhibits. To make it you will need a set of high-quality soft plasticine, a board and a modeling knife. Children 5-6 years old will quickly complete the task under the unobtrusive guidance of adults.

Body

Orange block of plasticine split with a knife into 5 parts - a narrow strip and 4 cubes. The photo shows notches in the places of the future incision;
Make three even balls and one oval from the cubes . Roll the strip into a thin sausage , cut in half
One of the balls will become the head of a butterfly. First you need to go to him attach eyes, made from flattened circles of white and black plasticine. Then carefully place it on your head horns from parts of the sausage, smooth the joints with your fingers. With a knife designate mouth;
Connect body parts and the head, pressing well, but not flattening the parts. The body should be docked tightly.

Wings

You will need two pieces of plasticine - a larger blue one and a smaller green one. Divide both . Roll the halves into and flatten into droplets;
Connect the wings - the lower ones should be slightly smaller than the upper ones;
From small pieces of plasticine of different colors, mold decorative elements - stripes, circles, drops, etc. Symmetrical decorate the wings. The photo shows a design option;
Attach the wings to the body. The butterfly is ready!

Compositions for modeling with children in kindergarten on the theme of winter, autumn, spring

Modeling from plasticine for children 5-6 years old should contain compositions from different seasons. This allows children to learn, understand and remember the characteristics and differences of natural seasons.

Below are examples of autumn and winter compositions.

Composition “Autumn”

This master class will show you how to convey the mood and colors of late autumn:

To depict a leaden sky, you need to mix dark and bright colors. To do this, we combine the following colors of plasticine: gray with black, yellow with purple, blue with black. You will also need a blue piece.
Using our fingers, we begin to spread yellow-violet plasticine on the paper from the upper corner, and draw a blue stripe below.
Above the blue color, smear a dirty yellow spot with your finger, stretching it in all directions like the meager rays of the sun.
Fill the sky completely with a gray-black and blue-black mixture to represent looming clouds.
Along the bottom of the sky, extend the blue stripe for contrast.
For the ground, a mixture of brown, white and yellow plasticine is used. This mass must first be kneaded in your hands, then spread on the bottom of the cardboard.
Completely fill the empty space with this mixture until the blue stripe appears.
Sculpt dark brown branches and a flat tree trunk, as well as yellow and orange foliage.
Stick branches and trunk as a tree on the left and a bush on the right. The branches should be inclined to the right, as if they were being bent by a strong wind.
Stick yellow leaves on the branches and under the tree.

Press down each leaf with a stack so that a stripe remains in the form of a vein.
We add orange leaves to the bush, and also go over them in a stack.
We sculpt additional details: brown stump, beige honey mushrooms, black birds.
All of them are attached to the picture.
Add rose hips to the bush.

The autumn composition is ready.

Composition “Bullfinch”

This master class on sculpting a bright three-dimensional composition of a bullfinch on a branch:

Cover the cardboard with a thin layer of a mixture of white and blue or blue plasticine. Blue and white plasticine should not be mixed until completely homogeneous; it is necessary that marble stains and inclusions remain visible.
Roll out a long sausage from a brown block, tapering towards one end and widening towards the other end.
Prepare a lot of thin green threads from plasticine as spruce branch needles.
Stick a brown branch approximately in the center of the picture, approximately diagonally.
Next, fragments are torn off from the green threads, bent in half and attached to a branch as Christmas tree needles. This is the only long process in creating a composition.
The entire branch must be filled with needles.

You can add more branches below and above the main one, keeping in mind that the central part of the picture should be left for the bullfinch.
To make a bird, you need to fashion 2 thick cakes: black for the body and red for the breast. Give them the desired shape.
You will also need one gray wing with 4 thin white stripes.
Fasten the torso to the chest and attach the wing to it.
Attach a white eye circle with a black pupil and a triangular yellow beak to the head.
Attach the bullfinch to the background above the branch.
Make a brown foot and attach it to the bird and a spruce branch.

The winter composition is ready.

Modeling from plasticine is a good way for preschool children to usefully spend part of their free time.

Application

Children 5-6 years old like to make voluminous applications from plasticine sausages along a contour drawn with a simple pencil. A more complex option is to sculpt flat shapes and attach them to a sheet of cardboard.

Athlete

Let's look at the technology for making crafts for boys. How to make a football player out of plasticine mass? How to blind him? Don't panic if your child sets such a task for you. After reading our lesson, you can easily complete the task together. It doesn’t matter which team your son is a fan of, he can change the color of the uniform at his discretion. Let's show it using blue paraphernalia as an example.

We create an oval lump from blue timber. Deforming it with our fingers, we try to give the silhouette of the body.
The triangle makes shorts. The stack needs to be cut in the middle to show the pant legs.
We attach short sleeves to the shoulders.
Roll out flesh balls into hands. We draw finger stripes. We attach them to the body.
By adding white stripes along the end parts of the tracksuit.

All that remains is to build the legs and white knee socks. Black sneakers will complete the look. You can complement the composition with a soccer ball. Every boy will be delighted with such a useful activity.

How to make animals from plasticine. Master Class

Modeling from plasticine for children 5-6 years old is no longer difficult, since most of the techniques have already been mastered. With the help of step-by-step instructions, a child of this age can easily sculpt a cute figurine of this tiger, consisting of simple parts.

The sequence for creating a tiger is as follows:

1/3 of a block of bright orange plasticine is cut off. Both resulting pieces are rolled into balls.
The small ball will be the tiger's head. From the second ball, part of the plasticine is pulled out into an oblong body.
Using a toothpick or match, connect the head and body together.
From the second block of orange plasticine, 1/3 of the part from which the hind legs are made is also cut off. This part must be kneaded and divided into 2 equal pieces, which should be shaped like a cone. Form feet on the wide side of the cone.
For the front paws, a piece of plasticine is rolled into a sausage, then cut into 2 parts. Paws with thickened feet are made from them.
Stick the paws to the tiger's body.
Roll up and stick to the body a long tail made of thin sausage.
Make small round ears with indentations and attach them to the head.
Use white cakes and a nose from pink plasticine to create an animal's face.
The tiger's eyes are made from round cakes of white, green and black, stuck on top of each other. You can add highlights around the edges of the eye.
Attach a white chest made from a strip of plasticine on which wool is drawn in a stack to the neck.
White cakes are glued to the hind legs as pads and toes.
Now you need to create black stripes. A very thin sausage is rolled out of black plasticine, short sections of which are stuck all over the tiger's body. Also, claws on the hind legs are made from them and glued into the indentations of the toe pads made by the stack.
Using a stack, make cuts to mark the toes of the front paws. 15 Use a toothpick to make dots on the white part of the tiger cub’s face.

The plasticine tiger is ready.

Insects

Your child will be able to make these plasticine crafts on their own. The technique will be very simple. We tear the mass into several pieces and roll it into balls. You need to make sure that each subsequent one is slightly smaller than the previous one. You will need to make two or more blanks - it depends on what kind of insect you decide to sculpt.

If you need to make stripes, roll out the rope and make it flat. To do this, use the body of a ballpoint pen. Eyes and wings are made using the same principle.

Octopus

A child can make such a craft from plasticine in just 5-10 minutes. To do this, you only need to prepare two parts.

Roll into a large ball. Then roll up a long rope. Divide it into five equal parts. Using a clay knife, turn the flagella into tentacles. Add spots to the octopus. Place the tentacles under your head and flatten them. We make a face with a knife or a needle.

Panda

Sculpting a panda from plasticine is a little more difficult, but children can still cope with this task. It's okay if the figurine turns out a little crooked the first time - everything comes with experience.

Roll into a ball and flatten it. Using a clay knife, make indentations for the eyes and work them in black. Add more indentations and place a tiny piece of plasticine or beads in them.

Roll a small ball - we will use it to make the panda’s cheeks and nose. Flatten the plasticine and place it on top. We do the same to shape the nose.

We sculpt the panda's body from a ball. Roll the plasticine into a rope to form the legs. Connect the parts. You can use water.

Owl

Sculpting an owl from plasticine is very simple and fun - not only children, but also you will like it. The figurine turns out so funny that you don’t want to destroy it.

We will need three colors of plasticine. We form the body from a large ball - flatten it a little. Each paw is assembled from three small strands. We roll out the owl's chest and wings from balls of the same size and give them the required shape. We do the same with the eyes and beak.

If the parts don't want to fold, help them with a drop of water. Using a plasticine knife or a needle, make small indentations on the body of the toy - these will be feathers.

Use two flagella to create a “hairstyle” for the owl. Place it on a plasticine branch or on a regular pencil.

Penguin

Even a preschooler can make a penguin. If the child is small, you need to take a large piece of plasticine to make the craft more neat.

Roll three balls: black, white, yellow. Flatten the black plasticine into an oval, and roll the white plasticine into a thin layer and place it on top. We will make the eyes with a knife for plasticine, and from a yellow ball we will make a beak and legs.

Decorate the plasticine penguin figurine with a heart or flower.

You can also make very cute penguins from polymer clay.

Dragonfly

We sculpt this cute dragonfly from plasticine in three colors. You can immediately prepare a piece of cardboard and draw a flower on it so that our beauty can sit where she is supposed to sit.

Roll two even balls. We will make a tourniquet from one: it is thicker at one end and becomes much thinner towards the other. We form the eyes with a plasticine knife. And let your dragonfly smile - this can be easily done with the sharp end of the tool.

We make wings from small balls: we form pear-shaped ropes out of them, and then flatten them. All that remains is to put everything together. By the way, you can even decorate a postcard with such plasticine crafts.

Dog

If you mold a dog, you can even play with it a little: put it down, sit it down, put it down. For this craft, one color of plasticine is enough for us.

Let's roll two balls. The first thing to flatten into the puck is the nose. We will attach two tiny ropes to the second one - this is the head with ears. We'll use a marker to make the eyes. We connect the two parts of the plasticine head.

We sculpt the body of the figure from a large piece of plasticine. It will be difficult for small children to attach paws to the toy, so it is worth helping them. We make them from strands.

We connect everything into one figure. The larger it is, the more options you have to play with it.

Turtle

This is a little more painstaking work, but the child must still cope with it. If the craft seems too complicated, do it in a larger size - it will be easier.

We need to roll two balls from plasticine: small and large. Flatten the larger one and form a shell with your finger. From the second blank you need to draw a pear-shaped figurine.

Push through two dents with a special knife. We make indentations in the plasticine for the eyes and nostrils with a needle or awl. We also roll the paws and tail in the shape of a pear. If the parts do not hold together well, moisten the plasticine or your hands with water (just a little).

Snail

We make the snail from just two parts. Roll out two ropes from plasticine: one of them should be long. We give the first one a curved shape, and the second one we twist into the shell.

Antennae can be made from thin wire or fishing line. Draw the snail's eyes with a marker.

Princess

You need to be as careful as possible and try hard to create such a beauty. We start with a beige oval. It should be sharpened on one edge to highlight the chin. Press down gently, creating hollows for the eyes. We create the face itself: eyes, nose, mouth. We make a cone for a skirt from a turquoise block.

Note!

What craft materials to use for creativity: non-traditional, foamed, soft or natural pieces made by yourself

The hem is made in the shape of a bell. Show off your waist by cinching your figure. From short pieces we weave a yellow braid for Elsa from plasticine. Recommendation: In fact, the pattern of sculpting a person is quite complex; in the preparatory group, children will cope together with the teacher.

We connect the neck and chest with a beige layer. Add puff sleeves to open parts of the arms. We draw stripes on the skirt and decorate it with numerous homemade rhinestones. After connecting all the details together, adjust them to achieve a natural look. The hairstyle can be complemented with a crown.

How to make food from plasticine. Master Class

You can make any culinary product from colored plasticine. In addition, plasticine food can be cut into pieces, which is much more interesting than toy food sets made of rubber and plastic. Making pizza, then cutting it into pieces and serving it to dolls and family members will be very interesting for the child.

Step-by-step plan for sculpting a plasticine pizza:

Mix brown and white plasticine until light brown. Divide the piece into 2 parts.
Roll one part into a ball, then flatten it into a flat cake. Roll out the other part into a long rope.
Place a thin beige cake onto the light brown crust. A tourniquet is attached along its edge.
Next, the pizza filling is created. To make sausage, roll out a layer of burgundy plasticine and place thin white flagella on it.
This layer must be rolled into a roll and rolled out in your palms so that it becomes dense.
Then it is cut into rings.
Round cakes are created from red plasticine, which are cut in half as
tomato slices. The texture is drawn on them using a stack or a toothpick.
Asparagus pods are rolled out of green plasticine.
Sausage is laid out on the crust, then tomatoes and asparagus.
Slices of champignons are molded from light plasticine. The relief of a mushroom is applied to them in a stack.
Numerous dots are made on the sausage using a toothpick for texture.
Olive fruits are molded from black plasticine. For shine, you can apply colorless nail polish here and there. It should not get on other ingredients.
For onion rings, pieces of pink and white plasticine are mixed, then rolled out into a sausage. It is divided into small fragments, which are twisted into rings and then flattened.
The pizza is decorated with mushrooms, olives and onion rings.
If desired, it can be cut.

A little more complicated: caterpillar

When the apples begin to turn out, you can begin assembling the caterpillar. It consists of several balls, two eyes and horns and a smile. Accordingly, we will need to roll several balls of bright colors. Balloons of the same color or several different colors are suitable.

Future eyes are smaller balls. You can make each eye out of balls of two colors, then you will get pupils. Horns are small tubes. A smile is an even smaller tube.

We collect large balls in one chain, for which we press the balls against each other with a slight crumpling. It can be connected in a straight line, or with slight bends - at the request of the child. You can make several different caterpillars.

Then we attach eyes and horns and a smile to the first ball.

Caterpillar

How to mold a human head from plasticine. Master Class

Modeling a human head from plasticine tells children 5-6 years old the body proportions.

By taking your child through a step-by-step master class on sculpting a man’s head, you can develop the child’s ability to detail, since the head has many details. If something didn’t work out the first time, plasticine makes it possible to correct all the shortcomings.

Step by step sculpting:

A ball is rolled out of beige or pale pink plasticine, which is given the shape of a human head and an oval face with a chin and forehead is formed. This is done using techniques of pressing and pulling with the fingers in the right places.
From the side of the face, symmetrical recesses for the eyes are made with the flat side of a plastic knife.
A small piece of plasticine is attached to the center of the face, from which the nose is formed. It should start from the bridge of the nose, gradually increasing the tubercle. The junctions between the nose and the face must be smoothed, then the nostrils should be made with a toothpick.
Next, using a stack of pink plasticine, the lips are drawn.
The oval whites of the eyes are attached to the eye sockets.
Blue circles with black pupil dots are molded onto the eyeballs.
Thin sausages are used to attach the upper and lower eyelids.
Small oval ears are added to the head.

Brown eyebrows are applied.
A set of slightly flattened brown sausages is used to make a hairstyle that covers the crown, temples and back of the head.
To sculpt an older person, you need to add wrinkles to the face using a stack, and make the hair gray with small strokes of white plasticine.

Appetizing donut

For work, prepare:

a plastic mass of bright colors;
stack-bulk, spatula.

Let's start our master class.

Form into a yellow ball.
Flatten it by pressing the center with a round tip.
Remove excess from the back side.
Make a cake from the pink mixture.
Cover the main workpiece with it. Make a hole.
Roll out different plasticine flagella. Place them in the freezer for a few minutes.
Removed from the cold, the parts are cut into small pieces. This will be the sugar sprinkle.
Decorate the top of our baked goods with it.

How to make a dinosaur from plasticine. Master Class

Dinosaurs are unusual animals that lived in ancient times. During the modeling process, the child can be told facts about their life and varieties.

Step-by-step diagram for sculpting a dinosaur:

Cut off a third of the green block of plasticine and roll it into a ball-shaped dinosaur head. Next, a triangular shape with soft corners is created from the ball.
For the body you will need a whole block of green plasticine. It must be kneaded thoroughly, then given an oval shape, which should be transformed by stretching into an oblong drop.
Using a toothpick, both parts are connected together.
To make massive dinosaur paws, you need 4 green balls of the same size.
Sausages are rolled out from the balls, then the legs are formed.
The paws need to be connected to the body; to do this, their edges should be slightly flattened.
Making a large collar for the dinosaur. To do this, roll out a cake from a piece of green plasticine.
An arc-shaped strip is cut out of it in a stack, then a zigzag pattern is created along the edge with a jagged stack.
The collar is glued to the top of the dinosaur's head and the scalloped edge folds back nicely.
On the head near the collar we attach a pair of beige horns.
A green horn is glued to the nose.
Triangular green plates are attached along the back and tail.
Now you need to make a two-color plate. To do this, roll a piece of brown plasticine into a sausage, which is then wrapped in a thin black cake.
From the resulting part you need to form a rectangle and cut it into 7-8 strips.
Stick them on the back of the dinosaur and press it into the body.
Attach white eyes with black pupils to the head.
Along the entire surface of the back of the ballpoint pen, the dinosaur skin is given relief.
In a stack, stripes are drawn along the collar, the line of the mouth and the tips of the paws.

The dinosaur is ready.

Progress of the lesson

Tell the children about the Dymkovo toy: “This toy originated in ancient times in the village of Dymkovo near the city of Kirov. In winter, the houses of craftsmen were full of clay, bags of chalk, boxes of paints, boxes of eggs, and jars of milk. That's pretty much all you need to make clay toys. The craftsmen knew how to turn a piece of clay into a duck or a rooster.”

Consider a duck whistle with your children. Explain how to attach a beautifully curved neck and a high-raised head to the body, and pinch the tail. Attach thick short legs-stands to the base body. Remind that the joints of all parts must be moistened with water and smoothed.

Invite the children to become Dymkovo craftsmen and sculpt such a duck.

When the toys are dry, they should be coated with water-based paint or white gouache mixed with a drop of PVA glue, and during a drawing lesson the ducks should be painted with Dymkovo patterns.
