Crafts for February 23 in kindergarten are, so to speak, an annual celebration of children's creativity. By this day, the children will definitely be making something with their own hands to congratulate their fathers and grandfathers on the holiday. Of course, such crafts will differ in their complexity and elegance: boys and girls from older kindergarten groups, for obvious reasons, will cope with the work more successfully than kids from younger groups. But this, by and large, does not matter. In any case, every children's craft will be a real work of art and a welcome gift for dads, grandfathers, older brothers and other close male people.
Let's talk in more detail about such crafts: what materials they are made from, how to make them, whether it is difficult or not.
Making a boat out of cardboard
This is one of the simplest crafts that even 3-year-old children can handle. It's done like this:
- cut out the ship’s hull from a sheet of thick colored cardboard;
- we color it according to our discretion and taste;
- We glue several buttons onto the side of the boat. These are life preservers, which, as you know, every ship should have;
- From white cardboard we cut out a triangle equal in width to the hull of the boat. This is the ship's wheelhouse, that is, the room where, without a doubt, the gallant captain is located;
- glue the deckhouse to the ship's hull with the sharp end up;
- Next we make the Russian flag. Cut out a rectangle from a white sheet of paper and make a tricolor out of it;
- We take a light straight stick (this will be the flag pole) and glue the flag to one end of it. We glue the other end of the shaft to the sharp end of the triangle (cutting). That's it, the warship with the Russian flag is ready;
- Now you need to think about the ship's crew. We cut out several figures of men from cardboard;
- We color them, drawing faces and clothes. These could be sailors or just cheerful boys and girls - here, again, it’s up to the child to decide;
- glue the figures to the ship's wheelhouse;
- so that the ship stands and does not fall, we clamp it from below into two ordinary clothespins;
The result should be such a cute and formidable warship.
You can make a boat in another way. For example, in the form of an application. Everything is simple here too:
- cut out the hull of the boat from paper along with the flag (you can also use several flags);
- color it;
- glue the boat onto a blue or light blue sheet of paper;
- cut out winding oblong strips from white paper and paste them under the boat. These are the menacing waves on which the boat floats;
- cut out the outlines of birds from white paper;
- glue them on top of the boat. These are seagulls that hover over the ship;
And besides the birds, white clouds and the sun cut out of paper and glued on top of the boat look great.
In general, everything is cute, simple and festive. All that remains is to give the craft to dad.
Fun scenario for February 23rd for schoolchildren
Confusion
The game is suitable for middle or older ages. The task is that participants need to write 8 adjectives on a piece of paper. These words will need to be inserted into the finished template. Here is an example of a template: “The day before yesterday in... a dream... fighter Smirnov argued with... fighter Sidorov that he would destroy 100... enemy tanks. Immediately, without waking up, Smirnov in... the battle used all his... experience and... in one fell swoop was able to take revenge... on the enemy.” The funniest news from the battlefield wins.
The enemy will not pass!
Cool competition for attentiveness. A participant is selected from each team who will take turns taking part in the test. The task is that the blindfolded player must identify by ear all the spies who will try to pass by him. The one who can “catch” more enemies wins the competition.
Thirst for victory
A quick and easy competition. It can be held in any conditions and with any number of players. The challenge is to drink a glass of juice or water faster than others. This way it will be possible to understand which warrior strives for victory the most.
My plane
An interesting competitive thematic competition. Each participant must make an airplane out of a piece of paper. A line is drawn in advance, and a few meters from it you need to hang an empty ring or place a bucket, for example. Players must launch the airplane from the starting line so that it hits the target. The game continues until someone in the process of participating hits the target.
Let's break through the defense
Clever entertainment for strength and ingenuity. The players are divided into 2 teams. The teams stand in a line and join hands. It is important to stand close to each other. Opposite ranks become backs. A line is drawn in front of each team, which marks the threshold. The team’s task is to push the opponent behind this line.
Making an airplane
An airplane is another common gift for dad on February 23rd. Actually, this is a rather complicated craft, and not every kindergarten child can handle it. But don’t despair: there are many craft airplanes that are easy to make. Let's look at them in more detail.
One of these crafts is applique. Making it is not difficult at all:
- draw an airplane on a white sheet of paper as best we can;
- cut it out;
- we color it, drawing a cabin, red stars, etc. on it;
- glue the airplane onto a sheet of blue or light blue paper;
- We cut out several clouds from white paper and glue them on top and around the airplane so that it can be seen that it is flying across the sky.
That's the whole craft.
Another craft is applique. It is a little more difficult to make, but not so much that a preparatory kindergarten student could not cope with it. Look at the photo below, and it will immediately become clear how exactly it should be made.
Do you want to make an airplane that you can pick up? Amazing! There are many easy-to-implement ideas for this. For example, we cut out an airplane from cardboard - just like in the photo below.
A very simple and cute craft - an airplane made from cardboard tubes. It is done like this:
- take two thin cardboard tubes of the same length;
- paint them some pretty color. We are waiting for the paint to dry;
- glue the tubes to each other so that you get a cross. The longitudinal tube will be the fuselage of the airplane, and the transverse tube will be the wings;
- take a rectangle of colored paper (any color) and glue it to the back of the longitudinal tube (fuselage). These are the rear wings of the airplane;
- cut out stars from colored paper (if you can’t do it yourself, then with the help of adults) and decorate the airplane with them.
Look at the photo how beautiful it turned out.
And these are examples of airplanes made from clothespins and ice cream sticks. Isn't it all that simple?
It’s not at all difficult to make the simplest three-dimensional paper airplanes. Here are a few examples of such basic but cute crafts that any kindergarten child can easily handle.
And here are the original airplane crafts made from an empty plastic bottle and cardboard. Take a closer look at these photos, and it will immediately become clear how to make such a craft. Of course, some procedures here may turn out to be difficult and even unsafe for a child, so when children want to make just such an airplane, it is advisable for adults to be nearby.
Tank
A tank, along with a boat and an airplane, is the most popular children's craft for February 23rd. There are many simple ways to make such a craft. Let's talk about some of them.
The easiest way is an application:
- We cut out the tank body from colored paper (usually green). To make it easier for the child to do this, first we draw a tank on paper;
- cut out caterpillars and other individual parts from dark-colored paper (at the child’s discretion);
- if you have an idea to make a tank with a flag, then draw a tricolor or a red banner on paper and cut them out. We also cut out a flag pole from brown paper;
- glue all the cut out parts onto a sheet of thick cardboard of any color so that you end up with a tank with a flag at the top;
- In addition to paper or cardboard, a wonderful tank can be made from parts cut out of felt. They are cut out in the same way as paper parts.
Do you want to make a three-dimensional tank? Amazing! There are also simple ideas that are accessible to a kindergarten child. Here, for example, is a tank made from paper towel or toilet paper rolls.
And this is a tank made from drink cans. Nothing complicated either.
Another simple and clever idea is a tank made from sponges for washing dishes. All that is needed here is to glue two sponges on top of each other (the lower one should be larger, and the upper one should be correspondingly smaller), insert an even tube or stick (trunk) into the upper sponge (tank turret), and stick a red star on top. Yes, you also need to remember to stick dark cardboard rounds (caterpillars) on both sides of the lower lip.
And here is another example of a sponge tank, which is slightly different from the previous one. Here, metal bottle caps are glued to the sides as tracks. Simple and witty.
Toy soldiers
If there are ships, planes and tanks, then, accordingly, there must be soldiers, sailors and pilots. Such crafts are also very popular among children. Moreover, under the guise of a soldier, sailor or pilot, you can portray your beloved dad.
The easiest way is an application:
- we draw figures of brave soldiers on paper;
- cut them out;
- glue the cut out figures to a sheet of colored paper;
- If you have some skill, we supplement the picture with the appropriate details: a parachute, a red star, a flag, ribbons on the cap, etc.
There are also more complex versions of handicraft soldiers. For example, these soldiers are made from paper towel rolls.
And here is a soldier and a sailor, whose bodies are made of a cardboard cone, and their heads and headdresses are cut out of white and colored paper. We glue heads with painted faces to the top of the cone, and a cap or cap on the heads, and the job is done. Yes, you also need to remember about belts, because what kind of soldier or sailor is he if he doesn’t have a belt?
An even more complex craft is these brave paratroopers made from acorns. Although, again, there is nothing particularly complicated here:
- we are looking for a lot of acorns;
- paint them green;
- on one of the acorns we draw a face;
- we string the acorns on a strong wire to make figures of men (here, perhaps, we cannot do without the help of adults);
- We make headdresses from caps of acorns.
The paratroopers turned out great!
And, of course, a variety of plasticine crafts should be added here. There are ships, tanks, planes, and soldiers here.
In conclusion, watch two videos that talk about crafts for February 23 in kindergarten.

Agility and endurance competitions for guys
Pass it on to someone else
A light sports competition, the task of which is to pass the ball to the neighbor behind you. Players sit on the bench one behind the other, forming a train, head after head. At the command of the leader, the last person sitting receives the ball and runs forward, sits in front of the first, and passes the ball behind his head. So the ball passes along the entire line and falls into the hands of the last person sitting, who again runs to the beginning. Whichever team does it faster wins.
Kangaroo
Players are divided into teams. The first one holds the ball between his knees. At the command of the leader, he must begin to jump to the mark where the players need to check in, turn around and return to the team to pass the baton to the next member. The team that finishes faster wins.
