Applications for the New Year

Appliques from various materials will be an excellent assistant in the development of artistic taste in the child. With the help of this technique, it is possible to make a lot of different things. The choice of your joint crafts will depend only on the age of the baby.

Applications for the New Year can be done in the form of postcards, which will be filled with congratulations on the holiday, or pictures that look great on the wall or desk. Various objects decorated in the technique of applique from foil, will be an excellent New Year gift. More often, multi-colored foil is decorated with New Year's or festive candles. With this work can cope with a child of 5 years and older.

To decorate candles with the help of appliqués for the New Year, we will need:

· Several candles of different shapes and colors.

· Multicolored candy foil.

· Tea spoon.

· Nail scissors.

· A glass with boiling water.

Think in advance with the child about how you want to decorate the candles, what shapes you need to cut, and in what order they should be placed. Conceived decorative details in the form of stars, flowers, stripes, circles or other figures cut out of candy foil and lay out on the table. Heat a teaspoon in a glass with boiling water. We put the cut out figure on a candle and smooth it with a hot teaspoon. Wax is puffing up, and our glittering adornment will stick to the candle. In this way it is possible to create unique gifts for the holiday or unique details for decorating the interior.

For the youngest children at the age of 3 years, you can prepare the necessary details for the appliqué for the New Year in the form of a Christmas tree. For this we need:

· Half of the album sheet.

· Christmas tree cut from green colored paper.

· Several cut out multi-colored circles and rhombs.

· Glue stick.

With your help the kid should spread the Christmas tree with glue and attach it to the sheet of paper, decorating with the help of multi-colored circles and rhombuses on top of it. The task is very simple and small children will cope with it. Such a gift can be prepared for moms and dads on New Year's holidays.

The most beautiful applications made by your child can be framed and decorated with a children's room. The kid will be proud of his work and will be able to show them to friends and guests at home.

An excellent solution for decorating the interior of the apartment will be the placement of the application on the wallpaper. To decorate a children's room, you can, together with the child, select favorite fairy-tale characters and make a panel of them. For the appliqué for the New Year, winter motifs are excellent: Santa Claus with Snow Maiden, a Christmas tree, a snowman and many snowflakes.

If you want to create unique wallpaper in the children's room, then pasting a wall of neutral color wallpaper, place them on your favorite fairy-tale characters of your baby. Be sure to do this with the child. He should take a direct part in decorating his own room.

If you do not want to be limited to one application for the whole time, then prepare several different panels that you will periodically change. Thematic for them can be different seasons or holidays. Children older than 5-6 years can help you in their manufacture. Entrust the child to select images, cut out simple elements and lay out the finished material on a pre-prepared paper sheet. Your baby will show great artistic ability. And paste all the pictures you can yourself.

A ready-made panel with applications can be hung on the wall. Taking part in a selection of topical applications, your baby will be happy to work with you on the production of subsequent works. The creation of such panels can become your joint passion.
