“From him we have always expected cheerful sorcery. If with him, then it’s so enticing - you won’t tear yourself away. ”
Lydia Chukovskaya (about her father Chukovsky Korney Ivanovich)

If you didn’t go anywhere in the summer and stayed in Moscow, then it’s time to go with your children on a wonderful excursion to the Chukovsky house-museum, reread your favorite fairy tales written by Korney Ivanovich with your child, or read new ones that your child doesn’t know yet.

The name of Korney Ivanovich is known not only in Russia, but far beyond its borders. Many of his books have been translated into various languages of the world. There are very interesting fact in the biography of the writer: in 1962, the Oxford University awarded the writer an academic degree, the title of Doctor of Literature. Another no less interesting fact: the real name and surname of the writer is Korneichukov Nikolai Vasilyevich. Chukovsky Korney Ivanovich is a writer's pseudonym. And it is by this name that all children know him.

Excursion to the House-Museum of Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky

The Museum of Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky is located not far from Moscow, in the town of writers, in Peredelkino near Moscow. You can get there by public transport or by car. In a picturesque town, surrounded by pines and birches, there is a house-museum of the beloved children's writer.

Before entering the museum, take a look at the brickwork fence with the children, which is located opposite the museum gate, across the road. There are plot pictures based on the fairy tales of Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky. True, everything shows that they were drawn a long time ago and, apparently, also have not been updated for a long time: the paint is cracked, faded and peeled off in some places. But it is quite possible to consider episodes from fairy tales. This is some preparation for the tour. Because, even without entering the museum, already here, at the gate, you can plunge into the work of the writer and play with the children in the game: “Guess what the artist painted?”. Children vying with each other will begin to tell you by heart verses from the works of Korney Ivanovich. Ask what word Aibolit repeated when he hurried to Africa. Who put out the sea in the fairy tale "Confusion"? What is the favorite delicacy of crocodiles from the fairy tale "Telephone"? What did the Fly-Tsokotuha treat the butterfly to? Amazing! Everyone is ready for the tour!

Let's go! Right away, standing in the yard a big tree, on which "shoes, sandals and boots have already grown." Do not forget to tell the children before the tour that Korney Ivanovich has a wonderful, funny, very positive poem "Wonder Tree". You can read the lines from the poem at the improvised miracle tree, which is located in the courtyard of the museum house:

Like ours at the gate
The miracle tree is growing.
Miracle, miracle, miracle, miracle
Wonderful!
Not leaves on it
Not flowers on it
And stockings and shoes,
Like apples!

A miracle tree is a “magic tree” on which, instead of fruits, sandals and shoes, boots and boots grow, which can be seen right next to the writer’s house!

The poem was written by Chukovsky in 1926 for his daughter Murochka.

And if you are lucky, and Uncle Volodya will conduct your tour, then the children will certainly remember it on long years. The tour guide is just amazing!

Before the tour, you read fairy tales, got acquainted with the new works of Chukovsky, but what to do after the tour?
Of course, enjoy the memories, make interesting crafts, memorize excerpts from your favorite works and, of course, follow them based on the works of a children's writer.

Play the game Fairytale Names. Who is this?". Prepare pictures depicting Aibolit, Fyodor, shark, Barmaley and other characters from the works of Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky.

You ask the question: “Who is Aibolit?” The child is looking for a card with the image of Aibolit, points to it and says: "Doctor."

"Barmaley?" - "Robber".
"Fedora?" - "Grandmother".
"Tsokotukha?" - "Fly".

Craft-toy "Crocodile, Crocodile, Krokodilovich"

In what fairy tales of Chukovsky is the crocodile the hero? "Crocodile", "Cockroach", "Stolen Sun", "Confusion", "Barmaley", "Moydodyr", "Telephone".

They say that before becoming a children's writer, Chukovsky did a lot of translations, wrote articles, was literary critic. One day his little son fell ill. At this time they were traveling by train. The boy was naughty and crying. Then Korney Ivanovich began to tell him a fairy tale. "Once upon a time there was a crocodile, he walked the streets." The boy calmed down, and the next day he asked his father to tell him the same tale again ....

This is how the fairy tale "Crocodile" appeared, with its main character - Krokodilovich!

There lived a Crocodile.
He walked the streets
Turkish spoke -
Crocodile, Crocodile, Crocodile!

Let's make Krokodilovich, who was defeated by Vanya Vasilchikov?

What do you need?

A picture or drawing depicting a crocodile,
scissors,
glue,
2 wooden skewers or juice tubes

How to do?

Draw or print a picture of a crocodile. Color with your child in bright colors.

Let your Krokodilovich be cheerful, kind and perky! Cut it out along the outline. Cut the picture into 2 parts. Next, a colored sheet of paper needs to be bent with an accordion and two wooden sticks (skewers or tubes for juice) glued onto it. It turned out to be an accordion.

For an accordion, you need to take thick paper so that it retains its shape well and stretches easily. Now you need to glue the accordion to the halves of the crocodile picture. What a fun toy!

Now I want to run and have fun!

Play the outdoor game Crocodile and Turtles. A crocodile is selected - the driver. The rest are turtles. Turtles slowly walk around the crocodile's house and say to the teaser:

- The Nile flowed among the sands,
Crocodile buried in mud.
We are not afraid of the crocodile:
He is very cute today!

Hearing the words "very nice", the crocodile runs out of his house and tries to catch up and taunt the fleeing turtles. Whom the crocodile caught, he becomes a crocodile and the game is repeated again.

To play catch-up, you can learn a counting rhyme.

- Somehow a little crocodile
He swam away from his parents.
He went for a walk, he got lost
And I was lost in fear!
We will help, so be it,
Come out - you lead!

Craft "Washbasin chief and washcloths commander!"

Many, many decades ago, washbasins were in almost every family. If not in the house, then in the country. In our time, the word washbasin, in general, has gone out of use, it is practically not used in speech. And our children can learn about the washbasin from the tale of Chukovsky Korney Ivanovich "Moydodyr".

After reading the fairy tale, make a very light, unusual and beautiful craft from the fairy tale. Your baby will be happy!

What do you need?

2 cardboard boxes,
colored paper with adhesive backing,
scissors,
glue and a little imagination.

How to do?

Finding two cardboard boxes at home is not at all difficult. For crafts, you need to glue the boxes with colored paper or simply paint them with gouache. This will be the wash basin.

Glue two toilet paper cylinders to the body. Decorate to your taste. Glue or draw eyes on the washbasin, make a tap from a juice tube, make a sink from a yogurt cup.

Add details: hair, hat. Hands - a towel from a strip of paper.

We got a wonderful head of wash basins! And, of course, your baby will now know why we say so often: "... always and everywhere the eternal glory of water!".

You worked, glued, cut, painted. To relax your fingers, play the massage-finger game "Shower":

More blue cloud (clench and unclench fists)
Water the hands with water, (rub the hands)
Shoulders and elbows, (rub shoulders and elbows)
Fingers and nails, (rub fingers and nails)
And the back of the head, and temples, (rub the back of the head and temples)
Chin and cheeks, (rub chin and cheeks)
Three washcloths knees, (rub your knees)
Brush three well, (rub your knees)
Let's rub the girl / boy well, (name). (rub the whole body)

Poems and fairy tales of Korney Ivanovich bring a lot of joy to children. Today, we simply cannot imagine childhood without his fairy tales: without “Aibolit” and “Fly-Tsokotukha”, “Confusion” and “Phone”, “Moydodyr” and “Fedorin's grief”. Although, today Chukovsky Korney Ivanovich is considered a controversial children's writer. The attitude of adults to his work is ambiguous. Children like his characters, his poems, and adults see cruelty in his works ("I'll chop like beef now. I, a glutton, have nothing to pity you"), then violence ("And he cuts off his head at all his gallop"). And the kids are just laughing. Because they perceive "adult cruelty and violence" as the victory of good over evil - something that all fairy tales teach children.

I remember when I first read the fairy tale “Barmaley” to my little son, she made a huge impression on him. He asked to read it every day, and we read it, sometimes 2 times a day. He liked her very, very much. When he grew up, he knew it by heart!

Our mothers and grandmothers constantly make crafts for children of garden age. What these crafts are just not connected with: and with calendar holidays, and with the anniversaries of the organization, and with the events of the year. You can't list everything.

Fairy-tale heroes

One of the favorite topics is "Fairy-tale heroes with their own hands." Why is it relevant? As easy as pie. children preschool age Russians constantly read folk tales. Reading occurs not only because it is understandable and close to children, but also because it is easier to educate through a fairy tale than to mumble instructively what is possible, what is good, how to do it right. Through a fairy tale, you can unobtrusively and easily make it so that the baby does not notice that he is being called to something, taught something. He easily joins the process and gladly participates in it.

Now imagine that the fairy tale is also accompanied by real heroes. It's just fantastic: a preschool child develops according to figurative thinking. It is important for him to see the hero, the action, the image. He has not developed logical, especially abstract thinking. But if, along with telling a fairy tale, to offer a hero from this work, then the matter will advance to an unattainable height, and you will simply become the idol of the child.

Fairy-tale characters help to enter the proposed events easier. And fairy-tale characters created by one's own hands become even more familiar, understandable, and, most importantly, more valuable (after all, “one's own shirt is closer to the body”).

Let's try to make our heroes

crafts fairytale heroes with your own hands can be found in the literature, peep from friends. The main thing is not to "drown" in the variety of forms, techniques, ideas of this direction. Here's what you can use:

Paper. Available material, cheap, anyone can handle the cutting technology.
Dough, clay. Don't think this is kindergarten age material. There is where people and older people can roam.
Threads, knitting. What just do not come up with the masters of this type of art! You will simply be surprised at what can be knitted from threads.
Tree. How much can be made from this beautiful material! Do not think that only Pinocchio is the only wooden character.
Textile. Why not sew from this very versatile material! People, animals, even just objects, furniture, Natural resources- easily.
Plastic.

Yes, what is there to list. You can take any material that is closer to you, clearer, easier to process and more affordable.

How to make a hero out of paper

Making a fairy tale character with your own hands out of paper is easy. You perfectly understand what you will use in your work, especially since you can always choose the simplest, cheapest materials. First of all, we choose a character: Baba Yaga, princess, bunny - anyone. We take scissors, a template (if it’s tight with imagination), cut out a figure according to the template. The hero-character is ready for staging a fairy tale.

It can be more difficult. The modular origami technique will require a lot of time and money. Here you will need to add several tens or hundreds of triangles-modules for volumetric figure. But nothing, dashing trouble is the beginning. The main thing is the ability to connect the modules in a circle, and then, where necessary, reduce or add elements in a row. So you can make figures of a hare, a fox, a wolf, even an old man and an old woman.

The quilling technique will require more virtuosity from you. It is very laborious: curls, droplets, "eyes", plant elements will require you to create beauty for a long time. But the work will turn out to be very gentle, elegant, noble.

Most often, parents find it difficult to find time to work with their child. Then, to make a fairy-tale toy with your own hands in kindergarten (for example), you can fold the paper in half and create a princess, a bunny, a tree with a symmetrical cut. The baby will have a lot of delights, and you will spend a minimum of resources. Moreover, the creation of the figures will take several minutes, which corresponds to the age of the preschooler for the concentration of attention and his interest in the process. A fairy-tale hero made by his own hands for kindergarten is interesting, simple and useful.

Let's try to make heroes from dough, shall we?

Try it, this process is also very addictive. After all, anything can be sculpted from salt dough. Do not think that you can only blind some trinket. In fact, even masterpiece heroes and compositions with very small details and exclusivity of patterns. Again, fairy-tale characters can be very original and unique. Using one pattern, different craftswomen will recreate completely different things. The same needlewoman is not repeated in her works. We think you should not be convinced of this. The main thing is to start.

Fairy tale in metal

Think it's impossible? Are there not enough fine blacksmiths in Rus'? What about fleas? An almost certain fact, how Lefty shod a flea. True, it's hard work. There are no small details here. Scope is needed. For a child of kindergarten age, this is not suitable. But it’s worth trying to create a New Year’s fairy-tale hero with your own hands. By the way, right there the sculpture can be embodied as ice material. Yes, you yourself saw fairy-tale heroes on the squares (especially Santa Claus with the Snow Maiden, a trio of horses with a sleigh).

Here, of course, nail scissors are difficult to do, you need a saw, tools for working with ice. But that doesn't matter either. It is very important your desire to create, to create in front of the child, noticing his interest, surprise, desire to help you. And when the result is already in reality, also the evaluation of the help of the child in the work. This is truly worth it.

What about fabric?

Is it possible to create fairy-tale characters with your own hands from fabric? There is no limit to human perfection. Fairy-tale heroes can be embodied through the pattern of any living and inanimate object. By the way, how many New Year's costumes of fairy tale characters can be sewn from fabric with your own hands! One has only to move forward, not stopping there.

Can threads work too?

Oddly enough, but yes. After all, even messages-texts with important data were written from threads (earlier it could have been nodular weaving). Why not now connect Piglet with Winnie the Pooh, Sonya the dog?

What heroes can be made?

Absolutely any. The only limit is fantasy. Here are some characters you can make with your own hands:

Kolobok. The simplest and one of the first characters. This hero can be made from paper (flat, origami, modules), and from threads (knit, stuffed with padding polyester; or you can wind the threads around the ball to get an openwork Kolobok). You can fashion a hero from dough, decorating it with some kind of panama hat.
Princess Frog. An easy way to mold a plasticine frog. A very profitable option, because imagination can not only tell us that we need to add an arrow and a crown, but additionally fashion beads. And it will be even more expressive if you dress this “lady” in a royal dress.
Goby - resin barrel. Rarely found in the house homemade toys made of wood. But such a character is easy to make, even just taking a sip from a tree. We glue the head, legs to the body, fluff the tail from the threads.
Baba Yaga. A very common fairy tale character. This image can be sewn from various old flaps. But over the face will have to work. It is worth doing it in the technique of hosiery. To do this, you need a fabric that is very similar to nylon tights, although you can take the tights themselves. When you fill the “face” of the hero with padding polyester, eyes can be sewn on from large beads or buttons. Embroider the mouth with red threads, and wind the nose (you need to separate a small part from the middle of the face) with threads in the color of the fabric.

In a word, the choice of a hero, material and technique is entirely up to you.

Finally

It is simply necessary to play with a child, because this is the only way for a little man to know the world and himself in it. Socialization starts from the very beginning. early childhood, and the first with whom the child associates himself is, among other things, fairy tale characters. By their example, the baby learns how to act well and how to act badly, receives the first knowledge about nature, rules of behavior, phenomena and objects. What will help better than do-it-yourself toys, fairy-tale characters? Moreover, this has a double benefit. You will spend time with your child while you make a Snow Maiden or a bunny from a fairy tale, and he will develop Creative skills, fine motor skills, perseverance.

More work for our competition - crafts from the Vasyukov family sent by mom Tatyana. This is a whole New Year's town made of paper, cotton wool and improvised materials.

They drew hooves with a black felt-tip pen, and eyes with paints.

They hung a bell on a string and put it on our deer. With the help of colored braid, cardboard and glue, we connected our deer and the sleigh. The harness is ready.

Next, we needed magical snow-white Christmas trees. We cut them out of cardboard according to the template and painted them with white gouache. We connected our Christmas trees in pairs. From the resulting scraps, the daughters glued flat Christmas trees for the background.

So that Santa Claus would not be bored, we made paper napkins snowman. We mixed 1 third of water and 2 thirds of PVA glue, dipped white napkins in this mixture and rolled balls out of them, connected our blanks when wet and let our snowman dry, then glued bead eyes, a cardboard nose and a cap to it, drew a mouth with a felt-tip pen . The snowman is ready.

It's time to show up and Santa Claus. We glued it out of cardboard and cotton wool, and painted the face. 3 semicircles were drawn on cardboard - one large and two smaller ones for pens, cut out and glued, white stripes were glued. Glue the arms to the body. We smeared the part of the head with glue and placed it in place. Our Santa Claus is ready!

Crafts on the theme "Green oak near the seashore" with their own hands

These lines begin the fairy tale of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin "The Tale of Tsar Saltan". The guys will remember these lines better if you make crafts based on Pushkin's fairy tales with them.

To illustrate this story, you will need the following materials:

thick cardboard measuring 24 by 35 cm;
a sheet of white A4 cardboard;
paper towels;
PVA glue;
oak leaves;
acorns;
a paper bag that sells coals for grilling;
acrylic lacquer;
hot glue gun;
acrylic paints;
colorless silicone sealant;
pebbles and shells;
semolina;
Bath salt;
artificial grass rectangle;
golden chain;
modeling dough;
rhinestones;
surprise Kinder toys;
small chest;
barbecue skewers;
dried flowers;
cardboard box.

With all this in front of you, begin the magical process of creativity. Spread oak leaves on newspaper or paper, cover it first with one layer of varnish, then with a second.

In order not to wait for the varnish layer to dry with reverse side, hang the leaves by the petioles on a rope with clothespins. Paint them in this position on both sides at once.

To glue the acorns to your lids, do it with a hot gun. Cut off pieces of wire with pliers right size, fold them, twist closer to the bottom, bending these segments here in the form of roots. At the top, twist several wires at the same time to make branches.

Turn the coal bag inside out or use another paper bag, put a tree trunk here. Twisting the package, glue it to the lower frame of the tree in the form of a trunk. For branches, you need to cut strips from this package, and also glue them to tree branches.

Further, to create this Pushkin craft, you need to attach acorns and leaves to hot silicone from a glue gun.

Now you need to think about where to place the craft. A large cardboard box is perfect for this. From the sides, glue paper towels soaked in PVA glue and water to it, which are taken and diluted in the same proportion.

To make a blank for the seashore, you need to cut a trapezoid out of white cardboard. Its smaller side is 6 cm, the larger one is 16, the base is the same as the width of the box. The right edge of this figure is located at an angle of 90 degrees to the base, and the left edge is a curved line of the coast.

Decide where it will end, where the sea is, cover this place with blue paint. Mix green and yellow bath salts with semolina and PVA glue. This mass must be applied to where the coast will be located on your cardboard. Before the glue dries, press small pebbles and shells here. Put this work near the heater so that the glue dries.

When this happens, proceed to the next step. He is very interesting. Show the kids how to create a 3D sea effect. You already marked it with blue paint, now squeeze the sealant here. Make waves out of it by forming them with a teaspoon dipped in water. Where you want the waves to be foamy, place pieces of cotton under them, helping yourself with a toothpick.

Now it's time to put the individual elements of this craft on the theme of a fairy tale together. Using hot glue, attach the base of the craft to the cardboard, while on the right there will be a blank of the sea and the sandy shore. Glue an artificial grass mat, by the way, you can buy it at the Fix Price store.

To this artificial grass base, you need to attach a tree. To do this, pierce it with its roots-wire, bend it on the reverse side, fasten them. Hang a golden chain on an oak tree, glue a mermaid, a cat on a tree on hot silicone. If there are no ready-made figures, make them from salt dough, color them.

Here is such a wonderful and unusual work is obtained. While doing it, say the famous lines of the poem, then the child will quickly remember them.

If you want him to learn more, then make another Koshchei by taking a suitable figure from Kinder Surprise. Place a small chest next to it, fill it with coins.

To make a hut on chicken legs, make it from wooden sticks or matches, attach wire with paper in the form of chicken legs at the bottom. Decorate the building with dried flowers.

The child will lay out the fabric elements on the burlap. If everything suits, you need to glue them. If the work is small, then the burlap can be glued onto a sheet of cardboard so that the base is dense.

If the work turned out to be large, then tuck the top of the panel, hem it here. Insert a wooden stick, tie a rope to it at both ends to hang the finished work for it.

To make ships on which guests sail in a fairy tale, take:

Styrofoam;

To make such three-dimensional picture, take:

bark;
birch bark;
cones;
sticks;
plasticine;
yellow cardboard.

Master Class:

Lay a piece of thick bark on the work surface, clean it of dust with a cloth. Let the child put a piece of mashed plasticine here, place chaga on top.
We make grandfather from a big cone, which will become his body and a small one, it will turn into a head.
With the help of plasticine, the child will attach the sticks, they will turn into the arms and legs of the character. Waves are made from pieces of birch bark that need to be twisted, fixed in this position on the bark with plasticine.
The child will cut out a goldfish from yellow cardboard, draw scales, eyes, and other elements with a felt-tip pen. Let him attach the fish to the wave with a piece of plasticine.
Using natural materials such as acorns, the child will make a grandfather out of a fairy tale. Just let the adults drill holes in the acorns so that you can put matches or toothpicks here, which will become the arms, legs, neck of the hero of Pushkin's fairy tale. A stick with a rope will turn into his fishing rod.

a sheet of cardboard;
glue;
brush;
threads different colors;
openwork braid;
eye bead.

Manufacturing instructions:

First, you need to weave pigtails from the threads. Now let the child draw the outline of a fish on the cardboard.
Dipping a thin brush into the glue, circle them with this substance, then glue a pigtail of yellow thread along the contour. On the body of the fish will lay them out in the form of scales. Sponges-bows are made from red pigtails, waves - from blue and blue.
Here you can use both a pigtail of yarn, and just glue the threads. Turn them around the work by making a beautiful frame. Let the child glue the eye from the bead, make the tail from the openwork braid.

Here is such an interesting goldfish made of threads. It can also be made from other materials.

To make such an inhabitant of the seas, take:

foam egg;
satin ribbon;
beads;
eyes for toys;
colored stones;
shells;
glue Titanium;
white seeds;
alabaster;
wire;
acrylic paints;
sequins;
polymer clay;
patch;
pallet;
transparent nail enamel;
pencil.

Draw with a pencil on one side of the foam egg, where the fish will have a face. Paste it with yellow sequins, attach eyes, a mouth from a red satin ribbon.

From wire and beads, weave the upper and two lower fins.

Instead of scales, glue the seeds, pointing them in one direction so that the narrow tips are near the body. Start attaching from the side of the tail, gradually moving towards the head. Limit the junction of the scales with the face with red beads, attach it here.

Carefully apply glue to the tips of the seeds, sprinkle them with red and yellow sparkles. In the same way, decorate the face of a marine resident, using only yellow sparkles. Top it all off with clear varnish.

Here's how to make the fish next. Twist a loop from a thick wire, wrap it with a plaster. Pour diluted alabaster on the pallet, stick the bottom of the wire here. Wrap another piece of wire with blue tape, here you will attach the fish. Also put it in this solution. Paint the wave and the hardened alabaster with blue acrylic paint.

To make a beautiful tail for a goldfish, string beads of different colors on the wire and bend this blank in the form of a tail, glue it to a sea dweller.

It remains to decorate the voluminous work with algae made from polymer clay, shells, pebbles. And here is the final result.
