Beautiful swans of cones and plasticine

Often during the walks in kindergarten kiddies collect leaves, twigs, acorns, bumps. Then all the material can be used for making beautiful hand-made articles.

Swans

For example, beautiful swans from cones and plasticine are obtained. Grace will be given to these birds by the neck and beaks. Together with the children you must first fashion a head with a beak and neck. But before you start working, you need to find a beautiful picture of this proud and beautiful bird. The child will distribute clay, and this will be the main material, according to the colors that he sees in the prepared image. The swan beak is molded from plasticine of red color, and the neck and head are white. Now it remains to attach the neck with the head to the found cone, make the eyes of plasticine black.

Application

Remarkable will look like swans made of cones and plasticine, made in the form of applique. They turn out to be voluminous, original. To a blue-colored cardboard that will represent water, attach a small fir cone. It will be the body of a swan. From plasticine to mold all other parts of the swan and also attach to cardboard. It will be a bird floating on the blue watery surface.

From a pine cone

Quite different are the swans made from cones and plasticine, if a pine cone is used as the bird's body. Kids with pleasure collect them and develop their imagination when carrying out the tasks of their educators. The cone should be slightly opened, so that its scales look like the opening wings of a swan. Suitable for crafting wadding and clay. The body of the bird still needs to be finished, one bump here is indispensable. Between the scales there is an empty space, it needs to be filled with small cotton balls. Take a white clay and form from it a curved sausage for the neck and head of a swan. Looking at the photo of a bird, you can see that the white swans at the base of their beaks have a black frame of it. Therefore, first a small diamond is molded from black plasticine, which is attached to the place on the head where it is supposed to perform the bird's beak.

Next stage

Then you need to take a bright red material for modeling and make a beak. The neck and body are joined together. Then you need to flatten a small piece of plasticine under the color of water. On it the swan from a cone, photo of which is presented in article settles down. This will give the bird stability. On the resulting lake you can "plant" reeds, made from ordinary toothpicks, on which a plasticine of brown color was wound.

Thus, it turned out to be an excellent piece of cones. Swan will adequately represent the skill of the child at any exhibition in kindergarten.

Bird with beautiful open wings

There is another hand-made imitation of cones. The swan is obtained with wings of plasticine. They can be opened and shown by a bird dropping into the water. You can fold, tightly pressing the swan to the body. Wings are made of white plasticine, between them is put a fir or pine cone. It depends on what the child finds. Add the neck with the head and beak to the body. Then you need to insert the black plastic eyes. And further design will tell the kid his imagination and parents.

From twigs

Having considered several variants of crafts made of plasticine, for comparison you can advise how to make of the cones of a swan, without attracting the material for modeling. Take two bumps, one will replace the bird's head, and the other will perform the function of the trunk. A dry twig, which you need to slightly bend, is the neck. Two dry leaves from a tree - future wings. The eyes and beak of a swan are made of plasticine of the appropriate colors. Absolutely without the child's favorite material - plasticine - could not do without, but the basis of the crafts will consist entirely of natural material. The branches, leaves and cones were used.
