Application for the younger group on the theme “Spring”
From the age of 2, children are able to work creatively with paper and natural materials. Thematic applications and crafts give younger preschoolers an idea of the changing seasons and the awakening of nature.
Snowdrops
To make cute snowdrops, you need cotton pads, colored paper and cardboard. The application does not require templates, but if necessary, an adult must help the child.
The process of making the first flowers of spring:
- Take pale blue cardboard - this is the spring sky.
- Cut out leaves from green paper.
- Shape the cotton circles into snowdrop buds and make petals.
- Using a green marker, draw flower stems on the cardboard.
- Glue the leaves and buds.
Spring sun
To make rays of bright sunshine, the child uses his hands, places them on a cardboard base, and the adult traces his fingers with a pencil. If the cardboard is not colored, but white, the preschooler paints the resulting rays with a yellow or orange marker, or gouache paint, and cuts them out with scissors. You should get at least 6 blanks.
Next you need to cut out a large yellow circle - this is the sun. Glue it to the sky-colored cardboard, leaving the edges unglued. You can also use a plastic plate and paint it with yellow gouache. To complete the application, all that remains is to slip the rays of your hands under the edges of the circle and glue them. To make the resulting sun really look like spring, you can draw eyes and a smile on it.
Chestnut flowers in spring
To make an applique, you need blue cardboard, a branched tree branch, and popcorn without dye.
The branch needs to be pasted onto the sky background. For better adhesion to the cardboard, press the workpiece with a weight. Glue roasted corn flakes to the branches - these are chestnut flowers. Leave the application to dry.
Greenery in spring
It will be very interesting for preschoolers to grow fresh herbs on their own; with the help of crafts, they will learn how nature comes to life in the spring.
Give the pupils egg shells with the top cut off and prepare the planting substrate. Let each child draw a funny face on his shell. Then he will pour soil inside, moisten it with a spray bottle, and plant the greens. You can use a lawn mixture: it takes root well and germinates quickly. By placing the shells on the windowsill in the spring, children will watch the seedlings develop every day.
Early spring
Tree branches collected on a walk can be used to create a spring landscape.
Children cut out the earth from brown paper, the remaining snow here and there from white paper, and the spring sun from yellow paper.
All this is glued to cardboard.
They also stick on branches, which become young trees in the landscape composition.
Finally, all that remains is to glue pre-cut small green leaves to the branches.
Original crafts for March 8
Not everyone will immediately believe that you used cardboard egg packaging for this craft.
If you come across candies packed in paper baskets, do not rush to throw them away.
You can make an unusual photo frame from thin twigs
Another original surprise is a homemade necklace. Even a child can handle it by giving his mother or sister such an unusual accessory.
If you are making a fastener, you can cut a not very long rope for the base. But if the clasp is not planned, we measure out such a length so that you can then put this decoration over your head.
We fix the colored thread on the rope with a knot and continue winding. We fix it with glue.
Decor may vary.
We fix the thread with wire, winding the required amount onto the rope. He cuts it off with pliers.
Decor in the form of tassels made of bright threads will look original.
An old board can be used to create a beautiful, unusual panel. To do this you will need several dozen nails, thread and wire.
Application on the theme “Spring” in the middle group
Among preschoolers of the middle age group, the lesson on applique “Spring” from scrap and natural materials is of great interest.
Spring landscape made of plasticine
The teacher draws a simple spring landscape with a pencil on white cardboard sheets. Distributes blanks to students. Children take multi-colored plasticine, tear off pieces, smear them on cardboard, creating a picturesque landscape composition: blue sky, bright sun, soft green grass, a running stream with a homemade boat on it, blossoming leaves on trees, flying beetles and butterflies.
If you have natural material - pebbles, shells, cones, pieces of bark, then you can use that too. Mother-of-pearl beads and rhinestones are also suitable for decorating a landscape.
Salt dough spring
Instead of plasticine, you can use salt dough to create a spring landscape. Children will enjoy working with the new material and will learn its properties. To prepare the dough, you need white flour and finely ground salt (you can even grind it into powder with a mortar) in equal proportions. Water should be added little by little as you stir, so that the mixture does not become too liquid.
The benefit of salt dough is that it discourages the child from trying everything he works with. After licking the material a couple of times, the baby will no longer want to put anything in his mouth.
You can sculpt anything you want from salt dough: flowers, leaves, ladybugs, butterflies. For ease of work, it is advisable to have stacks and a rolling pin on hand, as well as a bowl of flour for wiping your palms. Children glue the molded blanks onto cardboard to create a three-dimensional “Spring” applique.
It takes at least 2 days for the application to dry. It needs to be placed where it is dry and warm. The dried applique can be beautifully painted. You can use watercolor, gouache, acrylic, even oil paints.
Mimosa
A mimosa branch is a symbol of spring; it can be made from millet cereals. Let the children draw branches on white cardboard with a brown felt-tip pen, cut out tree leaves from green paper according to a template, glue them, and draw the outlines of the inflorescences with a pencil. The teacher should help the students by showing illustrations of a real mimosa. The inside of the contours must be lubricated with glue. To complete the application, all that remains is to generously sprinkle the glued surface with golden millet.
Maslenitsa
Introducing students to Maslenitsa, held at the beginning of spring, the teacher can offer to make a thematic application that reflects the attributes and mood of this folk holiday.
The base is a circle made of cardboard, it symbolizes pancake - the main Maslenitsa dish. To it at the bottom you need to glue an “accordion” made of multi-colored paper - this is the fluffy skirt of Maslenitsa. Above it is necessary to glue the hands and head in a scarf. To finish, draw a smiling face for Maslenitsa.

Today in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk it was very cold, it was raining, we had nowhere to rush.
We got down to business, and this is what we came up with.
During a quiet hour, I made blanks for the appliqués: I cut out clouds, St. George ribbons, and flowers. Well, we traced the bird-palms together, and I immediately cut them out in front of the children. Pigeons are birds of peace!
I tried to tell the children, in a form they could understand, what Victory Day is: this is a holiday that everyone loves, expects, there will be a lot of flowers and balloons. All people will go to the parade, and in the evening there will be fireworks!
Most children like to glue, many are ready to re-glue everything! How glad they were that this was not all, we would still glue flowers.
I am glad that the children understand, are trying to finish the work, are already running to the reception with drawings, and know that we are going to do an exhibition.
Today Arkasha’s mother, Elena Anatolyevna, joined us. Looking at the photo, you can see how happy the son is that his mother is gluing flowers with him. Happy moments!
The work turned out wonderful! Simple, but completely independent, I only helped to glue the ribbon evenly in the beak.
- Dove - a symbol of peace
- You are a symbol of peace and goodness,
- My Dove is white and free!
- Remind people it's time
- End the war already!
- Fly above the clouds!
- Let everyone hear us:
- Only peace is more important than all fundamental

Studying anatomy
Older children will be interested in studying human anatomy using the applique as an example. This game will not only develop fine motor skills and perseverance, but will also introduce children to the structure of internal organs.
Depending on age and level of training, the number of organs may vary. To play you will need:
- template (contours of the human body);
- organs (brain, stomach, lungs, liver, heart, intestines and others);
- diagram with the location of organs on the template and their names;
- glue.
The essence of the game is to introduce the child to internal organs.
- Each organ is taken in turn. Its name is clearly pronounced and shown on the diagram where it should be located. For older children, the purpose of this organ is explained.
- The child takes the organ shown and glues it onto the person’s stencil for appliqué.
- The actions are repeated with each organ.
If this is not the first time an acquaintance with the internal structure of a person occurs, then the child can be asked to independently glue the organs onto the template.
