Author's didactic manual “Streets of the Big City” (magnetic layout)

In kindergartens, they often make play models of buildings, playgrounds, and different areas for children. Such playgrounds for dolls help children learn the rules of behavior in public places, play role-playing games, learn the features of the natural areas of our country and much more. To make such models, construction elements, ready-made miniatures of objects and various available materials are used.

In this article, Natalia Kudinova will show you how to make elements of a play layout for a children's park - a tree and a bench.

Master class “Tree” for layout

The layout contains deciduous, coniferous trees and shrubs. Let's take a step-by-step look at how to make a deciduous tree with a lush crown.

Materials and equipment

  • stranded wire,
  • polymer glue or titanium,
  • tassel,
  • acrylic paint,
  • stationery knife,
  • sponge,
  • gouache,
  • pliers,
  • side cutters.

Execution steps

1. Using side cutters, cut a piece up to 15 cm in size from the wire. Cut the braid to the middle by about 7-8 cm.

2. We release the wire from the insulation and divide each bundle into 3 parts.


3. Form the crown of the tree. You can twist each part of the wiring using pliers, but you can do it well with your hands.

And again we divide the wiring. Thus, the branches of our tree decrease in thickness and increase in number. We give the branches a beautiful bend.

4. Paint the wood with acrylic paint.

5. For the foliage of the tree, use a gouache-painted sponge.

Each piece is glued to the branch with instant glue “Crystal”.

The result is a rather lush crown.

This is what the finished trees look like:

DOMOSTROYPlumbing and construction

This is the game layout that appeared in our group at the beginning of the school year. I wanted to share with you how we created it - maybe it will be useful to someone.

To make the base of the game model “City Street” we will need: 2 pieces of MDF panel (I have them 53 cm), a piano hinge, screws and nuts for fastening

Using a drill, we drill holes in the MDF panels in selected places, attach the piano hinge to the MDF panels

To ensure that the model stands at an angle of 90 degrees and does not fall back, we screw a corner stop on one side (for me it is part of the fastening from an old curtain), and paint the lower part of our model with black paint.

choosing clipart of houses for the street. for my layout I put it together like this

We print the pictures in duplicate and laminate them; if you don’t have a laminator, you can simply cover them with tape. The picture becomes brighter and it is easier to care for the layout - wipe off dust, for example. We paste one copy of our laminated pictures, joining them on the layout, this is what we should get.

Now we will give our picture volume. To do this, we cut out buildings from second copies at our discretion, and glue them onto pre-prepared ceiling tile blanks - single background and double foreground, in my work I used “Master” ceiling tile adhesive

Cutting out buildings with a utility knife

We paste it (I still use the same “Master”) on our layout, our street now has “depth”

Let's move on to the design of the roadway. We take construction tape, highlight the pedestrian crossing, the dividing strip, that is, what we will paint over with white, and cover everything else.

In my work I usually use ordinary aerosol paints in a spray can, sold at any hardware store, dry quickly, and are easy to use. We highlighted all the lines with white - remove the tape. The roadway and crossing are ready.

We laminate the printed templates (1 sheet of laminated film - 2 sheets of templates with cars), fold the sheets with the white sides inward. We laminate them so that the cars are tougher, brighter and can be wiped clean. When a sheet is laminated, we cut it along the contour and we get 2 sheets laminated on the colored side, the second side remains unlaminated (paper) - the paper sticks together better, and laminated machines shine. This is what a laminated sheet with templates, cut on 3 sides, looks like.

Cut out car templates and glue them together

Now let's move on to making road signs. Materials: I used 2 sheets of regular white office paper, ceiling tiles (better washable), a stationery knife, toothpicks, master glue, mosaic in 3 colors (red, yellow, green), laminated sheet with blank signs, I used this one. Honestly, I don’t know how to indicate the authors; everything was cut out from so many places (((

We cut it out, glue 1 copy onto the tile, cut it out, and stick 2 copies on the other side. We make a stand for our signs. Take a sheet of white paper and cut strips of 4-5 mm along the long side of the sheet. For one sign, you need 5 strips. We take one strip and wind it onto a toothpick, forming a tight “roll” - this is the upper part of the stand. Glue 4 strips into a long strip and roll them into a “roll”. Place a small one on top of a large “roll” and glue it together. We dip the edge of the toothpick with glue, pierce our “rolls”, and with the other edge of the toothpick we pierce the blank with a road sign. All our sign is ready

Master class “Bench in miniature” for layout

Our model has a fence and a bridge made of popsicle sticks and paper parasols. And of course, every park should have benches for rest, which is what we will do now.

Materials and equipment

  • toothpicks,
  • polymer glue or titanium,
  • tassel,
  • acrylic paint (for painting bench legs),
  • any thread for knitting,
  • wire,
  • pliers,
  • hot gun.

Execution steps

1. We tie the toothpicks together at both ends; you can coat the knots with glue to make them stronger.

2. In this way we attach 15-16 toothpicks.

3. Using wire, we use pliers to form the bends of the legs of our bench.

4. Using a hot gun, glue the bench legs and base together.

A tree and benches take their places on our park layout for a kindergarten:
