Master class “Ladybug on a flower” Performed by Olga Gennadievna Blazhenkova Hello, dear colleagues. Late spring has arrived.

Previously, I introduced the children to S. Ya. Marshak’s fairy tale “The Twelve Months”, we looked at the illustrations in the book with the children and I suggested.

Hello, dear parents and educators! Today there is a very wonderful topic in the rich Piggy Bank: “Applique ladybug made of colored paper.” It is wonderful, in my opinion, because children always perceive these wonderful insects with delight - both living and artificial red-winged creatures evoke genuine delight in them.

Several children's works made from colored paper have already been described (applique "Bullfinches",), now ladybugs are next. You will be presented with several application options; you can choose the one that suits the child’s age and seems most interesting to you. And at the end I will tell you where you can find incredible large number ready-made application templates for different topics for boys and girls.

The lightest and simple work can be used for activities with children younger group kindergarten, and those that are more difficult - in middle group and eldest. In most cases, you will need the same materials:

• colored paper (red, green, black);
• scissors;
• glue;
• a simple pencil;
• hole punch;
• lids of different diameters.

Simple ladybug

1. Fold the green paper in half and draw the edge of the leaf on it. We cut along the contour and unfold the part - we get a beautiful finished leaf on which the future ladybug will sit.
2. We do the same with red paper - fold the sheet in half, draw a semicircle for the insect’s wings and cut it out.

1. We make a head out of black paper. There are two ways to do this. You can use any lid of a suitable diameter and trace and cut a circle around it. You can cut a strip from a black sheet, bend the corner as shown in the photo and cut out an even semicircle - this method is suitable for older children.

1. Cut out several small black circles and glue them evenly onto the unfolded wings. Such spots can also be made using a hole punch. Then we glue the head to the body.

Cut out narrow strips from black sheets. We glue the long one in the middle of the wings, and from the two small ones we make antennae.

1. We use the remaining short strips of black paper for the paws. Glue them from the wrong side to the body. Place the finished ladybug on a leaf.

Ladybug with voluminous wings

1. We prepare three identical circles from colored paper - two red and one black. This can be done using a template from the lids or by tracing a glass with a pencil.

Then we cut out another circle of smaller diameter for the head.

1. We make a leaf from green canvas. It can be made in the same way as in the previous work.

Glue a large black circle onto a green leaf, and onto it a blank head. The last part should extend slightly onto the body.

1. We bend the red circles in half and glue them to the body so that one of the halves remains free.

1. Using a hole punch, we make a lot of black circles and place them on the wings with glue. We make the insect's eyes from circles of white paper. Another ladybug applique is ready!

Volumetric applique of stripes

1. Cut out a circle from a red sheet. Then we cut strips of the same paper about 1 cm wide.

1. Glue the first cut strip to the base, making the craft the desired height. Then glue the second strip perpendicular to the first.

1. We continue to glue the strips tightly to each other. It is advisable that there are no free gaps between them.

1. We make a circle from black sheets and cut it in half - this will be the head of the beetle. We attach antennae to it and make eyes. We prepare speckled circles and glue them onto the convex body. Volume application is ready!

Hanging ladybug

1. For this work, you will additionally need beads and wire (18-20 cm long). We make a small loop at one end of the wire.
2. From a red paper base, cut 4 long strips approximately 1-1.5 cm wide. Glue small black spots on them. Then we bend all the strips in two places at the same distance from the center (as in the figure). We make holes at the ends and in the middle of the strips and put them on the wire (the loop should be at the bottom to secure the strips).

1. We put beads on the wire and on top - the free ends of the strips. Instead of beads, you can also use a cocktail straw - just cut it to the desired height.

Excess paper tapes After stringing, cut it off and cover the top with a circle of colored paper. The final chord is another bead.

1. We make a ladybug's head with antennae and eyes from colored paper and glue it to the side. We also bend the second end of the wire into a loop so that the craft can be hung.

Ladybug for the little ones

Although this applique is voluminous, it is very simple to do, so it is suitable even for three-year-old children. A ladybug made from colored paper turns out completely different - not like in the options described above. Watch the video:

Applications are a very useful and interesting creativity for children. But, you must admit that parents do not always have ready-made templates and ideas for activities at hand. Sometimes hard to find in bookstores good books, especially for volumetric crafts. And it takes a lot of time to search on the Internet to find a suitable job description, especially with ready-made templates.

To save your time, you can use this wonderful a selection of applications— simple and volumetric (or, as they are also called, 3D). At one time I stocked up on a lot of such applications - my daughter made absolutely everything! Having such colorful and, most importantly, ready-made material, for a long time you will not have a problem with what to do with your child. free time. Development fine motor skills, the necessary paper skills and artistic inspiration will be provided to your baby!

Happy creativity to you! Nadezhda Goryunova

Applications in kindergarten- not only a great use of a child’s time, but also a way to develop his skills. One of the most popular appliques is the ladybug applique.

This application can be done in the most different techniques, and the ladybug itself is even a kind of magical object, it’s not for nothing that when ladybugs sit on your hand, poems are read to them: “Ladybug, fly to the sky, bring bread, black, white, but not burnt!”

And such traditions have existed in Rus' from time immemorial. People asked ladybugs about their fate; these insects are the heroes of omens. In other countries, ladybugs are also something connecting God and people.

For example, the Danes ask the ladybug to convey to God a request for good weather, the Norwegians wish the ladybug to find their love. In France, it is believed that a ladybug on amulets or pendants protects people from misfortune and danger.

In most countries, ladybugs are associated with the beginning of spring, good year, good luck and a good harvest.

Craft made from colored paper

Most easy way to make a ladybug - make it from colored paper. Ladybug applique can be accessible to children different ages, it all depends on the complexity of its implementation.

Materials and tools required for work:

• black cardboard;
• red, black and white paper;
• glue;
• scissors;
• black wool threads.

On a sheet of black paper, draw a circle according to the template and cut it out. This will be the body of a ladybug.

There should also be eyes on the head - these are two more small circles made of white paper. Using a felt-tip pen, draw black pupils on them.

Now let's move on to the wings. Take red paper and trace two circles according to the template, cut them out.

Bend both circles in half.

Now you can cut out the dots for the wings from black paper, or you can draw them with felt-tip pens. There are 3-4 points on each wing.

You can glue the ladybug to a white sheet of cardboard and insert it into a frame, or you can plant it on a green piece of paper. Let's try the second option.

Cut out a leaf shape from green cardboard.

We glue the body of the ladybug to it. Then we glue the paws. We made them from small pieces of black wool threads. You can also make them from plain black paper or even draw them on a piece of paper with a black felt-tip pen.

Now we glue the head slightly overlapping with the body.

AND last step. We glue the wings, connecting their tips at the head, as shown in the photo.

The colored paper ladybug is ready!

Fabric insect

You can also make a ladybug from fabric. This could be a pillow or pillowcase, or maybe a soft toy. First, let's try to make a small toy out of felt or felt with the child.

First, redraw or print the pattern, adjusting it to the right size. The template below will help.

Let's transfer all the patterns to the required colors of felt or felt. Cut it out.

Then we begin to connect the parts with thread and needle. First we sew the wings and head. After this, you need to embroider black dots on the wings. You can take small buttons, beads, or simply make knots on the surface of the ladybug’s wings.

So, we look at the pattern and find the places indicated by letters on the felt work. We connect them so that the B on the wing aligns with the B on the head. To make the head convex, we connect the V groove on the ladybug's head.

Then we sew two wings together with a red thread or one close to the color of felt.

Now we need to connect the abdomen with the wings and head. To do this, pin it in the middle to the top of the product, sew along the edges, leaving a small hole for stuffing cotton wool or padding polyester inside the toy.

Antennae can be made from threads or thin wires.

Now we need to sew the ladybug to the green leaf.

Ready! A unique toy or keychain (depending on size) is ready! In the same way you can sew a large one soft toy, and a pillow. To sew a pillowcase, you do not need to sew up one edge, but sew on buttons and make loops.

You can also crochet ladybugs:

You can sculpt from plasticine:

You can make such an applique from many available materials, and it will always look beautiful and attractive! Good luck with your creativity.

Don't forget to watch the video tutorials on how to make ladybug appliques!

Paper crafts are entertaining, interesting, educational and even useful (children learn to cut, draw, create very funny crafts). For example, you can make a family of ladybugs, which, with the first rays of the spring sun, decided to bask, comfortably sitting on a green leaf. The option presented today belongs to a series of volumetric crafts.

We will need:

Double-sided colored paper (required red and black, other shades upon request);

Compass;

Pencil;

Scissors;

Black felt-tip pen;

Cardboard;

PVA glue.

How to make a ladybug with your own hands

You can, of course, place the cows on plain paper, but more interesting on a green leaf. Therefore, we cut out a tree leaf of any shape from green paper. To better hold the craft, we cut out a leaf of the same shape from cardboard (packing boxes work well), onto which we glue a green paper leaf.

From double-sided red paper, cut out three circles with a diameter of 8 cm (you can use a compass or a suitable glass).

We bend all three circles separately in half.

On one side of each mug we draw black circles with a black felt-tip pen (you can also use a brush and paints).

We glue two circles into halves, i.e. Each circle will have one half free, and the other glued to the half of the other circle.

We take the third circle and glue one half of it to the free half of one circle from the two glued together, in the end it turns out that one circle will be completely glued in the middle.

From black paper we cut out the head of a ladybug - an elongated semicircle (it is better to attach the body of the “sun-sky” to the black paper and draw a head commensurate with the body with a pencil).

Glue the head to the green leaf.


And going a little onto the neck, we glue the body of the ladybug onto the free halves of the circles.

Using a black felt-tip pen, draw antennae extending from the head. Ladybug is ready! It will be dad, like the biggest one.

In the same way we make 2 more ladybugs, one with a diameter of 6.5 cm is the mother and one 5 cm is the child.

Although flowers do not bloom on the leaves, we will depart from tradition and decorate our composition with several paper flowers (according to our taste and flight of fancy).
