Application "Christmas tree" - the development of the creative abilities of the child.

The artistic education of a child is necessary for its harmonious development. It is important for him to learn how to depict the world around him with his own hands. Let it be modeling, applique or drawing - any method is suitable, because the baby likes to create so much.

From the age of two or three years the child can make paper applications from his own hands, of course, under the vigilant guidance of adults. If the baby is still dangerous to give a pair of scissors or glue, most of the work will, of course, be performed by the parent or educator. The child will only paste small colored scraps of paper, previously smeared with glue, onto the base sheet.

During the New Year's holidays, the "Fur-tree" appliqué will be used perfectly in a simplified form. The adult makes blanks: cuts out of the green paper several triangles, different in size. Spreads them with glue. The child remains to glue the triangles one above the other onto the base sheet. The adult can tell the baby the order and arrangement of the triangles. If desired, the tree can be decorated with smaller details, for example, carved circles or asterisks. Glued on the Christmas tree pieces of cotton wool, will mimic the snow.

Work on the application will not only give the child a good mood, but also help in the development of fine motor skills. It is well known that it is extremely important, because it is with motor skills that such skills as fluent speech and quick memorization are associated.

As the child grows up, more and more actions in working with paper are given to him. In three years the child is already confidently holding scissors in her hands, she cuts the blanks from the whole sheet, spreads them with glue and glues them on the base. However, the presence of an adult is also necessary.

Together with the child his creativity grows up. For example, the familiar appliqué "Yelochka" is able to acquire the most unexpected forms, even large ones. The application begins with three green triangles, in which several cuts must be made from the bottom to the top. It is very important not to get involved in the incisions and not to bring them close to the top. Twist the resulting scraps with a pencil. Of course, it is not necessary to glue the curls to the base, just glue the top of the triangle with glue. The resulting herringbone can be decorated. The choice of paper affects the appearance of the completed work. If this is a two-sided green, then the Christmas tree will be the same color. If the reverse side of the paper is white, the herringbone will be more variegated, as if covered with snow.

When New Year's creativity from the paper has bothered, the appliqué "Yelochka" can be executed from other materials. For example, from buttons! We take a few buttons, different in color and size. We glue them to the paper-base in the form of an elongated triangle. Of course, the real Christmas tree can be called a product with great stretch, but look how beautiful it turned out!

Or take, for example, Fig. No, we do not need to brew it, we will create from it. Of course, this function is best suited for rice. First, we prepare the basis - we spread on it a glue triangle, which will be herringbone. We fall asleep with its rice, which is glued to the paper. Leave to dry, and then color the glued rice gouache.

Application "Christmas tree" can be a large size, on a New Year's poster, or a small one, on a gift card. There is no limit to fantasy.

Next to the Christmas tree, you can put a snowman, and it will be an application from the circles. Also simple, but interesting creativity.

Any creative activity, including application, teaches the child to bring the matter to an end, not to pass before difficulties, to help comrades. Perseverance and the ability to concentrate, brought up in childhood, will often help adults in carrying out more serious tasks.
