About combining drawing with applique

The world around is so many-sided and multi-colorful! It is not surprising that the child is fascinated by him, bewitched - because at every step there are intriguing questions, puzzles, discoveries. Children can express feelings based on impressions in different ways. Most often, their intermediaries, transmitting emotions, are brushes, pencils, crayons. Looking at the fruits of children's creativity, you understand that kids animate every picture, mentally create a fairy tale plot on its basis. Let's try to develop it?
Convex image
The simplest application is an activity available to the preschooler that can be combined with drawing. Let the young artist depict, for example, some animal with a heterogeneously colored skin - a zebra, a giraffe.
We cover the paper inside the outline with the paint corresponding to the background color, that is, we first make the African horse white, and the beast with a long neck - yellow or light orange. Now cut out the wave-like black stripes and irregularly shaped rectangles. The first are glued on the body of a zebra, the second - on the back and neck of a giraffe. The thicker the material for the application will be, the more relief the picture will turn out.
Looking for ideas in a box with needlework
The child draws a New Year's card, charging it with good and positive mood. True, a sled deer resembles a hybrid of a burenka and an antelope, but it’s funny. And what a wonderful tree! Meanwhile, something is missing from her ... Probably, shiny buttons that should play the role of balls, gilt nuts, and gingerbread cookies. Lubricate the buttons with glue, plant them on fluffy coniferous paws and say: "Garland, light up!" The masterpiece created by the little master is not ashamed to show Santa Claus.
There are too many heavy gray shades in the autumn landscape, because the young painter feels the sad charm of the October days. Some kind of original finishing touch is needed, not contradicting the pathos of the canvas, in order to fully reflect the nature of late autumn. We cover the album sheet on top of dried watercolor with an adhesive pencil (in full or in fragments), sprinkle with blue emerald green, pearl beads. The raindrops, into which the tiny beads turned, instantly revived the gloomy palette.
Show ingenuity
Dad has a huge bottle of shaving foam. Why is he so much? Let us borrow a little so that the caps on the tops of the drawn mountains seem fluffy and soft. Shake the can, direct the spray hole to the right places and gently press. And now the tops of the cliffs were wrapped in real snow, and large flakes soared above them - these were snowflakes connected in flight.
Does the father shave with an electric razor, so doesn't use foam? No problem! Toothpaste is available in the bathroom of any family. Replacement is completely equivalent. In the end, there is semolina, it will also make a wonderful winter composition.
Material for the embodiment of creative, extraordinary ideas is everywhere, imagination and a love of creativity will help him find it.
