At present, the ecological problem of the interaction between man and nature, as well as the impact of human society on the environment, has become very acute and has taken on a huge scale. In the context of an impending ecological catastrophe, it is of paramount importance ...

Much of what is simply bound to end up in the bin, and then in the city dump, can be used for completely different purposes. At the same time, both you and your child will enjoy if unnecessary and polluting waste turns into original ecological crafts from waste material with your help. Plastic bottles, plastic bags, wrappers from sweets and even wood shavings from a sharpener - this is the material that will serve as the basis for crafts on an environmental theme, which, among other things, is also very economical.

Dancer

After the next holiday, the number of sweets in the vase is rapidly decreasing, and the mountain of wrappers is growing. Why not make a fun children's craft on the theme of ecology from candy wrappers? All you need is a colorful, non-rigid wrapper, foil, and a white wrapper.

And so that the dancing doll is not lonely, you can make her a hussar friend or charming butterflies.

Undersea world

After a picnic or outdoor party, there is often a mountain of disposable plastic or paper plates. If there is a desire, then in a matter of minutes you can make crafts on ecology with your own hands, for which you only need glue, scissors and paints. Here, for example, are charming fish.

The body of the fish is a whole plate, and the fins are cut from the second. And you can cut them into any shape you like. On the front side, draw small or large scales, eyes and mouth. By the way, the mouth of the fish can be slightly opened by making an appropriate incision. Here is such a cute turtle you will get if the reverse side of the disposable plastic plate you paste over with squares cut out of green paper. The tail and paws can also be paper, and if you have super glue on hand, then plastic.

The same material for environmental crafts can also be used to make wall panels. Small pebbles, shells, various ribbons, beads - you can decorate the inside of the plate, pre-painted blue, with anything! Green ribbons will become seaweed, pieces of bright multi-colored fabric will become fish, and rhinestones will become reflections of water. At the top of the panel, you need to make a small hole for the cord so that it can be hung on the wall.

Similarly, you can make a panel depicting a nest. Feathers and thin ropes will serve as the lining of the nest, cotton pads - eggs, and a piece of felt - a bird.

Home theater productions often require a crown. It is also easy to make from a plastic plate. To do this, we cut the plate, the inner part of which is previously divided into six equal sectors in diameter, and bend the triangles up. We decorate the crown with curly paper elements, beads, rhinestones, and so that it does not fly off the head, you can attach two ties on the sides.

Paper bags (tetra-packs) from milk and juice are no less interesting and original material for crafts. In fact, such a container is a ready-made house or garage, in which it remains only to cut through doors and windows. If several boxes are glued together, you get a whole parking complex or even a palace.

Crafts on the theme "Take care of nature", drawings on the theme "Ecology of nature" will help children instill love for their native land, learn how to use waste material.

The content of the article:

It is necessary to educate a caring attitude towards nature in children from childhood. After all, if parents allow themselves to litter in the forest, then their children will behave the same way. If adults show children how to protect nature, love it, then the kids will grow up as worthy people. Be more in nature with children, tell them about plants, trees. Collect natural material: cones, bunches of mountain ash, plant seeds, so that you can then do joint work at home.

Crafts "Take care of nature"


Children love to color. Therefore, print a poster on this topic in black and white, give the kids the freedom of creativity. Let them use crayons, pencils, felt-tip pens or paints to add to the canvas bright colors. Tell them what color the elements of the poster should be, but if the children want to show their vision of the plot, do not interfere with them, let them show their individuality. Then teach them how to make crafts on the theme "Save nature." Prepare everything you need in advance.

Craft "Waterfall"

If you went out with the children for a picnic, after the feast, tell them that plant residues can be buried in the forest, they will rot. But with plastic bottles, this number will not work. Therefore, you need to take them with you to throw in the trash or do a wonderful job that requires:

  • plastic bottle;
  • cardboard;
  • scissors;
  • water;
  • cup;
  • beads;
  • colored paper;
  • markers;
  • gouache.
Help your child cut the plastic bottle in half crosswise with scissors, almost in half. The top should be slightly smaller than the bottom. The child will color this half with a neck to turn it into a fish, then draw an eye on it with a felt-tip pen.
A sheet of blue cardboard will turn into water. At the bottom you need to glue the beads, and cut out a semblance of pebbles from multi-colored paper.


It remains to glue the "fish" on blue cardboard, draw air bubbles in the water.

Craft from natural material

To create it you will need:

  • Walnut;
  • cone;
  • dry grass;
  • tree branches;
  • saw off from the trunk of a dry tree, which will become a stand;
  • glue.
On a saw cut of a tree - a wooden stand, the child will glue dry grass, and attach the branches using plasticine. Lesovichek will live in this forest. His baby will make a walnut, which will become the head and bumps - this is the body. These parts need to be connected with plasticine. Facial features are also made from it. But it is necessary to use plasticine of the appropriate colors, as well as for plants, mushrooms, which need to be attached to the base.

Use a bright marker along the edge of the stand to write “Protect the forest!”, And if the child is already familiar with the letter, let him do it himself.


Drawings on the theme "Ecology of nature"

Such creativity will also instill in children a love for their native land. If they were asked to bring in children's institution drawings on the topic of ecology of nature, we can advise the following.


On this poster, the author shows how specifically each person can help maintain a normal ecology and pyrogenesis. For this you need:
  • clean up after themselves garbage;
  • after resting by the fire, be sure to put it out;
  • in vain do not pour water;
  • save electricity;
  • take care of your home.

Reducing harmful emissions into the atmosphere will also help preserve the environment. It is not for nothing that in the summer motorists are encouraged to switch to bicycles in order to get to work on this transport.


Parents can take bike rides with their children, thus also doing sports in the fresh air.

The following drawing on the topic of nature ecology is symbolic. Under a bright rainbow, the child depicted a representative of animals, birds, insects, plants and calls on everyone to save our nature.


The following work is intended for schoolchildren. To make it, you will need:
  • sheet of paper or whatman paper;
  • simple pencil;
  • eraser;
  • paints.
First, on paper with a pencil, you need to designate the main elements of the canvas. If some didn’t work right away, you can erase them with an eraser and do it again.

The picture is divided into 2 thematic parts. On the left, beautiful nature is drawn, a grazing horse, soaring birds in the blue sky, and on the right - industrial enterprises, which carry out harmful emissions into the atmosphere and, as a result, dead trees, bushes, grass.


The next poster on the theme “Save nature” shows the children that it is necessary to protect the forest from fire.


If the child is asked to draw a picture on such a topic, you can give him the next idea. There is a forest, and a river, and a rainbow, and animals.


If this drawing on the topic "Ecology of Nature" is intended for middle school students, the next one can be reproduced by children from elementary school and senior groups kindergarten. Show them how to draw cone-shaped tree crowns and a lush crown. Children will also be able to draw lilies of the valley and strawberries.


Other work done in a very interesting technique. To do the same, take:
  • a needle;
  • colored threads;
  • a sheet of white cardboard;
  • simple pencil.
First, barely pressing the pencil, you need to draw a rainbow, below - the rays of the rising sun. In the center of the picture are outstretched palms and the inscription "Protect nature!".

We start from the bottom of the canvas. Help the child to put the yellow thread through the eye of the needle, tie a knot at the two ends of the thread. The rays of the sun can be made long or consisting of several stitches. Threads different colors children will embroider a rainbow, finish work in the same technique.


The following paintings are based on comparison and contrast.


On the right is a corner of the globe. Explain to the children that it will remain so if we all protect nature. On the left it is shown what it will become if you litter, not taking care to put out the fire behind you or burn it in the wrong place. Pollution of water bodies will lead to such sad consequences. The child will understand all this if he draws such a canvas.

Another work develops this idea and shows that people are able to resist atmospheric pollution, they need to reduce the amount of exhaust gases, and clean up their garbage.


The following drawing is also designed to inspire children with the right thoughts regarding ecology.


To let the guys know that a lot of interesting things can be made from waste material, offer them the following ideas.

Crafts from garbage

Children love kinder surprises, so they almost always have packaging from the gifts inside. Teach the children by showing what can be made from such waste material.


Wonderful funny chickens will be the result. To make them, kids will need:
  • plastic containers from kinder eggs;
  • glue;
  • beads or pins;
  • yellow and red cardboard;
  • scissors.
Glue yellow paper wings and red paper scallops to one plastic package, attach bead eyes in the same way.

You can pierce the top of the Kinder egg package with two pins. Then the beads remaining outside will become the chicken's eyes.


To make the shell, have the parents cut the top of each half of the package in a zigzag pattern. It will be more difficult for children to do this. Together with them, make a nest from straw or dry grass, or from thin twigs, fastening the elements with thread or glue.


You can make from garbage and here is such a picturesque bouquet. To create it, take:
  • packages from under kinder eggs of different colors;
  • scissors;
  • sisal or green plastic bottles;
  • cocktail tubes;
  • nail.
Manufacturing master class:
  1. Also cut the egg halves in a zigzag pattern. On the reverse side, use a heated nail to make a hole.
  2. Insert a straw into each, first insert the edge away to cut it into 2 parts. Then tie them in a knot, then this "stem" will be firmly fixed in the flower.
  3. Set them all up the same way. Connect the flowers, cover with sisal, tie with a ribbon.
  4. If there is no sisal, then cut off the top and bottom of the green plastic bottle and cut the rest in a spiral into a thin strip.
For the next craft on the topic take care of nature, you will need:
  • Kinder egg packaging;
  • toothpicks;
  • scissors;
  • plasticine;
  • paints;
  • thin colored rope;
  • flat lid from a cardboard box;
  • green colored paper;
  • glue.
Step by step production:
  1. Let the child glue the inside of the lid from the box colored paper, it is a green grass carpet. Toothpicks must be pre-painted, when dry, stick along the edge of the box, like a palisade. These pickets are tied with a rope in several rows to make a fence.
  2. Pierce the lower parts of the plastic blanks with an awl, let the child insert toothpicks-legs here. He will smear them with black plasticine, make small circles out of it, and attach them to the cow's body. Then you need to fashion the horns, and from the yellow plasticine - the muzzle.
  3. In the same way, let the child create other animals: a pig, a cat, a dog, a sheep. Then you get a whole village economy, and you already know how to make chickens from kinders.


The following crafts take care of nature are no less interesting in execution. After all, after the feast, the holiday remain plastic cups, disposable plates. Make such a clown out of them together with your children.


For him you will need:

  • disposable plates and glasses;
  • plastic tray;
  • latex gloves;
  • synthetic winterizer;

  2. Glue 2 plates together, putting plastic hair between them first. Glue threads on the face in the form of a mouth, cheeks, eyelashes. And the pupils can be made from a plastic bottle.
  3. Two trays will become the back and front of the clown. Decorate his clothes with buttons, sequins, cardboard, which will turn into a jacket collar.
  4. Stuff the gloves with padding polyester, attach them in place. This is how the theme of the ecology of nature played. After all, this garbage will not harm her if you make such crafts for a summer residence or for a competition.
And an empty container from the "Toilet Duck" or another household chemicals easily become a toy bus. And the other bottle - by helicopter.


To make the first toy, you need to take an empty plastic bottle of a similar shape, for example, from a “toilet duck”, rinse it well, and remove the label. Draw the windows and doors of this minibus with a felt-tip pen, cut them out with a knife and scissors.

So that the child does not get hurt on the sharp edges of the plastic, sand them first with large, then fine sandpaper.


Covers can be glued with super glue, making wheels or using wire axles. Make two punctures with an awl on one side and the same number on the other side of the bottom of the bottle. Insert one and the second wire into them, on the ends of which you need to glue along the cover, which will become the axes.

And to make a helicopter, you will need:

  • 2 bottles of drinking yogurt;
  • glue;
  • 2 caps from a plastic bottle;
  • straws from cocktails;
  • 2 nails;
  • scissors.
The first bottle of drinking yogurt will be the main one. You can simply draw a cabin on its bottom or cut off the bottom and glue half of it here plastic packaging from a kinder egg.

Make skids from two straws, attach them to strips of plastic cut from the second bottle.

With a hot thin nail with a wide head, make a hole in the lid and its attachment point, as well as at the ends of the straws. Match these parts to make the top propeller. In the tail section, make it from straws.

If you need to quickly make crafts about the ecology of nature, use plastic bottles. Tell your child that those who throw them away in the forest are damaging nature. After all, such a container will rot only after 200 years! It is better to make crafts out of it for the competition. It will take very little time and materials to make the next one, here are some:

  • wire wrapped in white.
Cut 4 pieces of wire with pliers, glue them to the bottom of the bottle, turning it horizontally. From a thinner wire in the winding, make a tail.

Have your child smear black plasticine on the bottle cap to make a nose for this rat. From white cardboard, he will cut out ears, and from black - a mustache for her. Using plasticine, attach eyes to the muzzle.


To make fun snowmen, show the kids how to paint Aktimel bottles with felt-tip pen to create the features of these characters. You can teach your child to knit. Cast on 2 needles, show him how to knit a rectangular fabric in garter stitch. Then it must be sewn on the wrong side. After - thread the needle and pass the thread to the top of the cap, tighten it.

From scraps of plastic, make ears, also glue them in place. It remains to paint the base to make a cat, glue a piece of fur on the head, and the tail can be made of cardboard or plastic.


Flowers from a plastic bottle will also help turn trash into a piece of decor or work for a competition. Petals are cut out of this container. To make them arch like that, you need to hold the blanks over the flame for a short time.

  2. Let him cut out the trunk and branches of a tree from brown suede, and its crown from green fabric. If this is an apple tree, let him cut out the fruits from the patches of the corresponding color. Sew loops to them, let him put them on buttons sewn to the crown.
  3. In order for the child to develop hand motor skills, sew a zipper on the trunk, let him unzip and fasten it. Sew lacing here, which will also help the development fine motor skills baby.

Let the child glue these 2 balls, glue a roving or wool on top of one, which will become the hair of a tumbler. Tie her a scarf. The button will become her nose, a piece of red fabric - her mouth, and blue and white - her eyes. It remains to tie a scarf, the work is completed.

If the mother has a cord left from needlework, let her show her daughter or son how to sew this thin braid, folding it to make a flower. You can first edge the fabric petals with this cord, and then sew them onto the canvas.


Crafts take care of nature can also be made from metal waste. See how unnecessary parts from a computer and a CD turn into a clock.
