Design of an exhibition of drawings for a kindergarten. DIY craft ideas for an autumn exhibition. How the pattern appears

Ekaterina Rasheva

our group is called "Sun", so I wanted to reflect this in receptionincluding this way:

1. apply a 10mm sun pattern to the plywood, with the number of rays equal to the number of children with a margin (in this case 21 rays)

2. cut out the sun with a jigsaw

3. Clean with sandpaper

4. Screw metal caps onto each beam with self-tapping screws, bottom down. (reusable)

4. We paint from a spray can, but you can also use a brush

5. Glue the printed names of the children onto the end side of the lids. (in this case on tape)

6. In the center we attach a cropped file for the necessary information (now you can buy thick transparent pockets)

7. Attach the sun to the wall in a convenient place

This sun can be used for plasticine crafts, as well as from natural materials, paper, etc.

You can put circles of thick film into the lids so that the lids do not get dirty from plasticine and glue.

The wall around the sun can be decorated with clouds, birds, rainbows

Registration of the group in kindergarten is part of the pedagogical process, on which a successful psychophysiological state depends.

Decoration of the reception group - "Creative workshops". Also, in our reception group we have a corner for parents called “Creative.

From work experience, we know that parents are most willing to make contact and express a desire to cooperate with the kindergarten precisely when it comes directly to their child. Everything related to a particular child arouses genuine interest. It is this interest that we use when organizing exhibitions of photographs, crafts, and drawings.

With the help of office staples and a stapler, the cups quickly turned into a huge light ball. The silver spray paint added some shine to it.

A little more tinsel - and the ball became the winner of the competition!

On August 12, 2012, a holiday was celebrated - Builder's Day. To mark this day, in the Chashchinskaya rural library of the Nolinsky district, children from the “Communication” club, under the leadership of the head of the library V.A. Medkova, built a real “magic castle” made from discardable materials.

This idea came about completely by accident. The children saw a picture of a castle on the candy wrapper, which they really liked, and decided to make such a castle with their own hands for Builder’s Day.

After discussion, we decided to make it from ordinary cardboard boxes, since they are all easier and faster to get. The children themselves went to choose boxes suitable for construction, decorated them with paints, and drew windows and gates.

The most active participants who worked on the castle from the “foundation of construction” to its completion placed their photographs in the windows of the castle.

The library worker and the children collected the required number of bottles on the streets, but these “towers” ​​were not stable enough.
They began to think further, but did not throw away the bottles either - they cut out wonderful fantastic flowers from them, painted them in bright colors, and in the final part of work on the castle they decorated it with them.

But for now the castle remained without towers.


Then a proposal was received from the parents - to make towers from pressed cardboard, on which linoleum and film are wound.
It is also not so difficult to get hold of it - in specialized stores this material is “thrown away”.
The guys themselves went to the Department Store to get the pipes, the boys sawed them, the girls painted them.
And the towers turned out to be stable, durable, and beautiful.


The “magic castle” is almost ready!
They worked on the castle for almost 2 weeks. 16 children took part in the “construction”. Many guys joined in the process of work.

The “construction” did not end there, and over time the castle plans to “expand” and everyone hopes that more and more new faces will appear in its windows!

There would be a desire. And if you wish, you can make anything out of the most unnecessary material if you use your imagination and creativity. It was very interesting for the children - to offer their ideas, to get the material themselves to bring their ideas to life, that is, to create something with their own hands.

In the summer of 2011, on Village Day in the village of Burmakino, Kirovo-Chepetsk district, a fashion show “Not Fabric”».
The clothing models were invented and prepared by readers of the Dresvyanovsky and Burmakinsky libraries, students of the auxiliary school.
To create the clothes, commonly available materials were used: garbage bags, newspapers, tape, candy wrappers. The children showed off the results of their labors with great pleasure.
The collection of dresses made from candy wrappers delighted the audience.
Models made from recycled materials attract people's attention to the problem of environmental pollution.


Aroused great interest thematic photo exhibition "Trash piles of our city" in the Oryol Central Bank.
The photo exhibition has been held for several years now. The stand displayed photographs of unsightly corners of the city that were taken in 2008, 2009, 2010.
Comparing the photographs shows what has changed for the better or for the worse on the streets. Visitors to the exhibition looked at the photographs with great interest and noted the pleasant changes in the improvement and cleanliness of Orlov.

This photo exhibition was timed with another exhibition - recommendation "Miracles for people from unnecessary things." It presents products made from waste materials that have outlived their useful life, but were used to make new ones. These are rugs made from milk cartons, panels made from buttons, vases made from plastic and glass bottles, products made from corrugated cardboard, yarn, scraps of fabric, etc. Visitors to the exhibition could not only admire hand-made masterpieces, but also read books and magazines with recommendations on their use and production. The best products were awarded with small souvenirs and letters of gratitude.

Many libraries hold competitions and exhibitions of crafts made from various household waste, showing that they can not be thrown away, increasing the amount of garbage, but used as useful and beautiful things.

School students and village residents presented their works. It turns out that if you apply skillful hands and think carefully, you can turn everything that is ready to be thrown away into a beautiful panel, funny toys and even amazing paintings.
And the most important thing is to clean up our planet at least a little, because we are still largely consumers of nature, and have not learned to recycle what we use.

Participants in the exhibition used everything they had at hand in their works: CDs and old records, artificial flowers, leftover fabric and yarn turned into charming paintings.
You can make amazing doll furniture from cocktail and beer cans.
And turn candy wrappers into shiny New Year's balls and toys.
From twisted tubes of paper from newspapers and brightly colored magazines, coasters and wicker plates are made.
Cocktail straws together with the remains of leather in the form of flowers turned into a wonderful panel.
Pictures were made from cardboard, birch bark, moss and dry grass.

And the Sorvizhskaya SB of the Arbazh district in 2010 during the action “We are for our clean village” held competition of ideas "Trash-Art" on making various crafts from unnecessary things and an exhibition of crafts from garbage was organized.

In order to attract attention to the problem of the environment from a very early age, the Pescherskaya SB of the Verkhnekamsk region, together with a kindergarten group, organized a family competition for crafts made from plastic bottles “Crazy Hands”.
9 families took part in the competition, each of which presented from 1 to 4 crafts: a family of woodpeckers, a mug, a doll, a candlestick, a pencil holder, a feeder, etc.
The exhibition turned out to be interesting and varied. All participants of the competition were invited to the “Plastic Bottle Benefit Performance” to sum up the results.

To begin with, to understand how to design an exhibition of crafts, try to decide on the theme of your exhibition. This could be an exhibition dedicated to the Eighth of March or Grandmothers' Day, or it could be dedicated to a favorite toy or time of year. For example, at an exhibition dedicated to autumn, you can display crafts made from various natural materials, fallen leaves, seeds and spikelets. Children's drawings on autumn themes, various appliqué techniques and even soft toys would also be appropriate. A fairly large and spacious room is best suited for such an exhibition. Make sure in advance that the selected room is sufficiently well lit and has the opportunity to install additional light sources.

When solving the problem: “how to design an exhibition of children’s crafts,” special attention should be paid to the location of children’s works, because such creations are usually very bright, unusual and colorful. If you simply place them in a row, ranked, the exhibition will look boring and dull. But you want to convey childish joy and spontaneity, a special creative approach. To make your exhibition lively and interesting, try being a child. Place small and fragile parts in illuminated glass display cases. It would be great if you could install rotating display cases and stands.

Place larger creations on shelves or designated tables. It will look great to combine several different crafts into one composition. Try to organize the exhibition in such a way that a general theme and plot can be traced, then it will be interesting for visitors to move from one object to another. Drawings, appliqués, and embroidery are best framed using mats. This way, children's creations will look more solid and interesting.

Make sure that all objects are not only easily accessible to any visitor to the exhibition, but also securely attached to walls or stands, especially if there are children present at the exhibition.

Be sure to place information next to each work about who the author of this work is, what its name is and what it is made of. Additionally, be sure to indicate the age of the child who did this or that work. For such signs, you can use small sheets of colored or plain white paper. It is better to make inscriptions in large block letters in bright colors. Additionally, next to the work you can place a photograph of the author and a poem that would suit a particular craft or short information about the technique in which the work was made.

Be sure to create a beautiful, bright poster announcing your event. You can make bright invitations indicating the time and location of the exhibition of children's crafts. Decorate the room with colorful balloons, posters that match the theme, and photos of exhibitors at work. Think about what you can offer to your exhibition guests. It could be juice delicious tea with homemade cookies or original cakes. The main thing is that your mini-buffet will please the guests of the exhibition.
