Handmade "Alien"

The fantasy of modern children has no limits in its development. Most pre-school boys show interest in the cosmos and its inhabitants. In this case, you can offer the child to do an odd job on a space theme. As a first experience, this can be an alien craft.

How to make an extraterrestrial from paper?

An alien from paper is done quite simply. The adult can offer the child to make an alien mask, then denote his name and the planet, and then play a role-playing game. To create a mask, you will need:

  1. It is necessary to take green cardboard and draw a mask pattern with slots for the nostrils of the newcomer (through them the child will look, so it is important to correctly calculate the necessary distance between the child's eyes).
  2. We take white cardboard, we cut out two small circles, inside of which we draw with a black felt-tip pupil.
  3. Glue the eyes to the mask itself.
  4. On the sides we glue a rope of the necessary length so that the child can safely tie a mask on the vertex.
  5. Then we take monochrome stickers in the form of circles of small size and chaotically paste them on the mask. Alternatively, you can cut out mugs of colored paper and paste them. The mask is ready.

Extraterrestrials from plasticine: master class

  1. Invite the child to choose the color of plasticine, from which he will make the stranger a trunk. Then ask to roll out of it "sausage".
  2. After creating a "sausage" it is necessary to flatten it at the bottom to make a bell.
  3. It is necessary to take a special knife for plasticine and cut the lower skirt of the bell around the perimeter for a length of just under half of the bell itself. It will be legs.
  4. Then ask the child to make a hand. To do this, you need to take a different color of plasticine, roll out of it two "sausages" of small size and on the one hand pull out pieces of plasticine forward. It will be your fingers.
  5. We stick our hands to the body of an alien.
  6. Now you need to make 6 small multi-colored balls (three on the eyes and three - on the antenna).
  7. The first three balls are molded into the area of ​​the alleged alien face.
  8. We take three matches and insert it halfway into the head. For these matches we string the remaining three balls. Thus, the aliens turned out.

Alien from vegetables and fruits

An older child will be interested in making an alien out of products. Creation of an alien in this case is characterized by simplicity and high speed of execution. The crafts of an alien should only be done under the supervision of an adult who will cut out the necessary details. To create an alien, we need:

  1. Cut out the cucumber trunk 5 cm. Leave it round.
  2. Take the rest of the cucumber and cut into 4 slices. It will be arms and legs.
  3. Take a small piece of cucumber and cut off from it two strips of skin. These will be horns.
  4. From the remaining piece of cucumber we cut out 3 small triangles - these will be the eyes and mouth.
  5. We take an apple, pierce it with a toothpick and insert it deeper into the cucumber skin. These are horns.
  6. Then we collect all the aliens together with the help of toothpicks. At one end of the toothpick we put on the arm piece, the second end of the toothpick is inserted into the trunk.
  7. Similarly, we collect the second arm and both legs.
  8. Separately, you can make a pumpkin out of a flying saucer. To do this, it is necessary to cut off the tip of a pumpkin with a small diameter.

Thus, joint creativity with the child will expand his horizons in the study of space exploration. A thematic crafts can be used as a gift for the day of astronautics.
