Origami crafts always impress with their visual complexity, but in reality everything is simpler than it seems. By May 9, any work can be decorated with stars, as well as whole modules of paper triangles.

To create an element, fold the sheet in half lengthwise, then in half widthwise. Turn the workpiece over, bend the corners so that you get a triangle (see picture), bend it in half. The element has 2 corners and 2 “pockets”, thanks to which these modules can be assembled into a complex structure. To do this, insert the corners of one part into the “pockets” of the other. For the strength of the fake, the joints are fixed with glue.

Asterisk element

Hide the tip under the strip. Now you need to press on each side of the pentagon so as to form the star itself. Of the many such stars, you can lay out any picture with a mosaic, they will greatly decorate the festive fake.

Paper crafts for May 9: tank, plane, carnation, star

By May 9, a tank made of paper is perfect as a gift for grandfather or dad. Despite its fragility, in terms of realism, such a craft is not inferior to other materials.

Moreover, paper requires attention and perseverance, so it is sometimes more difficult to make a model from paper than from other materials.

A colored paper tank will not take you a lot of materials or time. You will need colored paper, a ruler, a pencil, scissors and PVA glue.

  • Make 2 rings from strips of colored paper (width - 3 cm, length - 22 cm). These will be the tracks of the tank
  • Cut out a rectangle 8x14cm. Draw lines, stepping back from both edges by 0.5 cm. From these lines, draw 2 more lines, stepping back to the center of the rectangle by 3 cm. Bend the shape along the lines
  • Make a model similar to the previous one. Take a rectangle 8X10cm and mark the lines, retreating 0.5cm and 2cm, bend
  • Make a triangular barrel

You can build a tank from materials that are in almost every home - from rolls from toilet paper(3 pcs.) Or from a foil tube.

  1. Cut the foil tube into 3 equal parts or take 3 toilet paper rolls
  2. Glue them on the sides or wrap them with tape
  3. Make a blank for the tower. You can glue a suitable size box or fold a cardboard layout
  4. Glue the base and glue strips of corrugated cardboard on the sides - caterpillars
  5. Connect tower and base
  6. You can make a barrel from a juice straw, rolled paper, or even from a pen.

It will take quite a bit of time to make a corrugated cardboard tank. To do this, you will need: corrugated cardboard in different colors, scissors and glue.

Crafts from dough and plasticine by May 9: tank, plane

Children love to sculpt from plasticine. So why not immortalize some crafts by replacing plasticine salt dough. You can decorate such crafts in finished form or add food coloring to the dough in advance. The recipe is pretty simple:

  • Mix flour and fine salt in a ratio of 2:1
  • Dilute with water and knead until the consistency of plasticine
  • You can add a little vegetable oil for plasticity

Use a brush dipped in water to join the pieces of dough.

Important: For a longer life of the product, heat it in the oven at a temperature of up to 100 °. It is important not to bake the work, but to dry it.

So, the dough or plasticine is ready, but you still need a board (you will sculpt on it) and a knife (when working with dough).

  • Sculpt individual parts of the tank: 6 wheels (make a sausage and cut it), hull, turret and muzzle
  • Connect the parts: attach 3 wheels to the body on the sides, a tower on top, and a muzzle to it
  • Roll up a thin long sausage and wrap it around the wheels, forming caterpillars


Plasticine or salt dough tank for kids

You can make the tank bigger by preparing the necessary parts. You can make things easier for yourself. For example, to make the tower correct rectangular shape take a matchbox as a base, wrapping it with plasticine. And the stability of the muzzle will be given by a tube or a rod from the handle in the middle.



Plasticine or salt dough tank

Modeling an airplane is no less exciting activity:

  • Sculpt the details of the hull, wings, cockpit
  • Connect the details. For realism, you can pre-mix the parts of the hull and wings with a sausage made of yellow plasticine - this will turn out to be a camouflage
  • Blind propeller and stars


Another version of the plane from the dough (you can use plasticine)

  • Blind the body of the aircraft, bend the part up a little at the base
  • Make wheel and fender parts
  • Connect the details
  • When working with dough, secure the parts additionally with toothpicks.
  • Make a few parts of the propeller, connect and attach with a toothpick

Crafts for May 9 paper flowers

Making artificial flowers is easier with corrugated paper. It is easy to use, besides, some mistakes or imperfections typical for beginners are not so noticeable.

So, you will need: red and green corrugated paper, glue, ruler, scissors, tape and wire for the stem.

  • For one carnation, cut a strip of paper 45X8cm
  • Wrap the edge inward by 3 cm, stretch the paper a little - this will give the flower a waviness

  • Cut them into even squares
  • Fold each square in quarters and cut the outer edges in a semicircle.
  • On the outer semicircular side, make frequent cuts

What else can you make crafts from - a tank, an airplane?

The tank can be made from a variety of materials, such as paper or plasticine. Tank craft from matchboxes perfectly develops creative thinking And fine motor skills. You will need:

  • A piece of wallpaper (colored cardboard, notebook cover - any thick paper of a suitable color)
  • matchboxes
  • A sheet from a magazine (you can also use the leftover cover)
  • colored paper
  • Corrugated cardboard or corrugated paper
  • bottle cap


We start making a tank with a layout:

  1. Two matchbox cover with wallpaper or green thick paper
  2. Glue one box separately - this will be the tank turret
  3. Glue the two blanks together. You should get a tank layout
  4. Glue 2 strips of corrugated cardboard or paper on the sides - these will be the tracks
  5. Cut out wheel circles from colored paper and stick on
  6. From a magazine sheet, twist a straw (or you can cut a straw from under the juice) and attach it to the tower. It will hold on better if you make a hole in the tower box.
  7. Attach the bottle cap to the top


In the absence of colored paper, you can make a tank by simply gluing the boxes, and then decorate it.



  • You don't even have to buy craft supplies. For example, you can make such a cute tank from sponges
  • To do this, you will need 2 sponges for washing dishes, a straw from the juice and glue
  • Peel off the hard surface from one sponge. Cut out the tank turret and the end of the muzzle from the sponge, and use the hard surface for the wheels

You can please dad or grandfather by congratulating them on Victory Day with sweets. And you can put them in the form of a tank.



An equally important symbol of Victory Day is an airplane, which is easy to make with a child, spending very little time and materials.

For example, to make very small models, you will need wooden clothespins, ice cream sticks, glue and paints.



  • Very interesting planes are obtained on the basis of shampoo bottles, plastic bottle caps, electrical tape and cardboard
  • First, wrap the bottle with electrical tape of different colors, then glue the caps to the bottom of the bottle and cut out the missing parts from the cardboard (wings and tail)
  • The parts will stick well if you do not glue them, but make suitable cuts in the bottle


From plastic bottle you can build an airplane. Option for kindergarten: cut out wings, tail and propeller from cardboard.

If you stick the wings, then make 2 separate parts, but if you make a slot in the bottle, then it will be more convenient to prepare a one-piece model.




Or glue the resulting model using the papier-mâché technique and decorate it after drying.

This option will take more time, but it will also turn out to be an airplane that looks very realistic.
