Curtain options for kindergarten: for the music room and play group

The importance of creating a pre-New Year atmosphere in the group

As you know, the anticipation of the holiday is no less exciting than the holiday itself. Especially if it is such a wonderful celebration as a New Year's party. Before this event, children should come to kindergarten with joy; the anticipation of the coming magic should accompany them constantly. That is why the teacher decorates the group’s interior with shiny garlands, snowflakes, rain, and funny characters that correspond to the New Year’s theme. The teacher puts a piece of his soul into the creation of this beauty, fully using his creative imagination.

In preschool institutions, competitions are often held for the best group decoration for the New Year.

For festive decoration, the teacher may need a variety of materials: “rain”, tinsel, colored paper of different textures (plain, velvet, glossy), cardboard, cotton wool, gouache, stained glass paints (for painting windows and mirrors).

For design work, the teacher will need different materials, including colored paper of different textures

Decorating a group is quite a troublesome task (although this fuss is pleasant), so it is better for the teacher to draw up a rough plan of his actions in advance, highlight priority and secondary areas of his work.

1. The main stage of registration. These are the key interior details that will take the most time to work on. This includes decorating windows with snowflakes and other protrusions, painting windows and mirrors, installing a small Christmas tree (usually artificial) in a group or creating its image (on a wall or door).
2. Elaboration of finer details. Creating posters of a congratulatory nature (they can be purchased ready-made, but it is much more interesting to make them yourself, especially together with older preschoolers), hanging garlands, “rain” (under the ceiling, on a chandelier, decorating indoor plants, cabinets, pianos), placing parents’ crafts (as is correct in the locker room).

How to decorate the windows, stairs and yard in a kindergarten yourself?

The decor of windows, stairs and courtyards is no less important for the overall picture. From the street, the decorated façade of the building looks beautiful. Garlands are usually used for this. In the 21st century, flickering lights have been replaced by LEDs, which are safer for use among children. If there is a Christmas tree growing on the territory of the kindergarten, then it would be a good idea to decorate it with toys and festive tinsel.

Decorating a kindergarten for the New Year does not bypass such interior elements as the staircase. Thematic wall newspapers prepared by children are often hung on the walls. The steps are decorated with rain, and toys, festive socks and wreaths made of fir branches are hung on the railings.

You need to decorate the premises depending on the chosen style. Among the child-safe materials for decorating stairs are also suitable:

• ribbons;
• bows;
• gift bags;
• multi-colored tinsel.

There are also a large number of master classes on the Internet on “how to decorate a group for the new year 2020.” Video clips inspire new ideas and allow you to combine the proposed decor variations, creating something new.

To decorate mirrors and windows, you can resort to stained glass technology. To do this, you will need paper templates of New Year's figures, which are fixed with water. Windows are decorated in an original way by spraying paint and glitter. The result is discreet but beautiful pictures.

Decorating the door

If the theater starts from the coat rack, then the group in the kindergarten starts from the front door. The decoration of this part of the interior must be carefully considered. This can be an original New Year's wreath made of tinsel or other materials.

A beautiful New Year's wreath can be made from ordinary cardboard

The composition will be complemented by snowflakes (purchased or homemade), decorative shiny candies, artificial fir branches, images of Santa Claus, a snowman, etc.

Fir branches immediately add a New Year's flavor. With the help of paper geometric shapes, a white door can easily be turned into a snowman

The image of a Christmas tree can appear everywhere

The snowflake frame looks very delicate

By the way, some elements, only small ones, can be used to decorate the doors of lockers in the locker room. You just need to attach them higher so that children don’t accidentally tear off the decorative elements.

Decorating the Christmas tree

Beautiful New Year trees in the interior

The Christmas tree is the main attribute of the winter holidays, symbolizing magic, enchantment, unity and the fulfillment of desires. Therefore, it is decorated with soul, lovingly selecting toys, tinsel and other decor.

The main thing in decorating a Christmas tree is the selection of toys. A tree decorated with homemade toys looks the most elegant and cute. The photo below shows how to make Christmas tree decorations.

New Year is a family holiday, so you should team up with your children and jointly create unique, one-of-a-kind, and therefore priceless New Year's decorations, in which a piece of your soul is invested.

Beautiful window decoration

A very important part of the group’s New Year’s decorations is window decoration. After all, when the children go to kindergarten in the morning, they definitely look into them. Beautiful drawings and applications will definitely cheer up children.

The most popular window decoration is gluing snowflakes cut out of white paper. But here the teacher can show imagination and not just attach individual elements, but create an entire composition, a small fairy tale story on glass. For example, depict an episode from the famous fairy tale by G.-H. Andersen's "The Snow Queen", in which a cold beauty releases a huge snow cloud from her hand.

The window is decorated based on the fairy tale The Snow Queen

Another original option is a small house at the bottom of the window, from the chimney of which instead of smoke comes a whole cloud of snowflakes.

A very original idea - a huge cloud of smoke made from openwork snowflakes

In general, snowflakes cut out of paper are vytynanka (openwork appliqués). However, you can skillfully cut out other items, objects, and even entire compositions from paper. All this looks great on the windows on the eve of the New Year. For example, a beautiful horse that seemed to gallop from a fairy tale, Santa Claus flying across the sky on a sleigh with deer, a snow-covered village. You can even arrange a New Year's Eve in the underwater kingdom on the window. There are a lot of options here, the main thing is to use your imagination.

You can decorate not the glass, but the window sill, for example, by building a paper spruce forest on it. And on top of the composition will be decorated with an original garland of hanging toys.

Returning to the topic of snowflakes that decorate windows, we note that they can be made not only from paper, but also from a variety of, sometimes unexpected, materials: plastic bottles, spoons, cotton swabs, or made using the plasticine technique. Such crafts, of course, do not need to be glued to glass - they are suspended from the cornice by a thin thread and flutter beautifully against the background of the window.

The spoons are attached to the center of the snowflake Due to the voluminous shaggy center, the snowflakes resemble spiders Snowflakes drawn on plastic turn out graceful and beautiful

Windows can not only be decorated with appliqués, hang various elements near them, but also painted with patterns. To do this, the teacher will need a set of stained glass paints specially designed for painting glass.

To paint windows, the teacher will need stained glass paints

The technique of working with this material is simple and does not require special training. You can simply draw some patterns or objects. For example, a snow blizzard or simply elegant processing of the edges of glass looks poetic. As an option, you can use a stencil: the necessary figures are cut out of paper according to a template and glued to the window using ordinary water (there should not be too much moisture). Paint is applied to the surface around the paper. Then the stencil is removed, and the finished picture is obtained.

A very gentle and poetic composition. All the characters are buried in snow, the falling snow completes the composition.

You can also paint mirrors with stained glass paints.

If there is a mirror in the group room, then it can also be beautifully painted.

Decorating the ceiling

New Year's interior design ideas - decorating the ceiling

Decorating the ceiling is no less important - this is how a New Year's fairy tale is created in the interior. There are several ways to decorate the ceiling plane.

Rain

A traditional option for decorating the ceiling - New Year's rain in the interior

Rain is usually used to decorate the ceiling, lamp and Christmas tree; its threads are hung along the wall or in the window opening.

There are several known ways to attach rain:

1. Using pushpins under the ceiling, you can stretch threads or lines that intersect in any direction or parallel to each other. Then you can hang rain or other decor, such as voluminous paper stars to decorate the New Year's interior;
2. You can secure the rain using transparent narrow double-sided tape;
3. You can use rain to decorate ceiling lights;
4. The old reliable way is to use cotton wool and soapy water. A piece of cotton wool is wound on a thread of rain, moistened with water and secured to the ceiling.

Variety of shades of rain

Helium balloons

Helium balloons for ceiling decoration

All children love balloons and are especially delighted by the ones that float in the air. Decorating a group in kindergarten with them is an excellent solution. Rain or streamers can be attached to the balls as tails, which will create a festive atmosphere with their twinkling.

Important! Helium balloons are short-lived, so they need to be hung up about 3 - 5 days before the matinee, after which the children can take them home.

Ideas for New Year's interior

Snowflakes

New Year's crafts for the interior are never complete without paper snowflakes

The symbol of the winter holidays are snowflakes, which can be made from paper and attached to any surface. They are hung on the ceiling with threads or rain, on the walls - in the form of a garland or streamer, and on the windows they are secured with a piece of double-sided tape. Below are several ways to make snowflakes:

Garland of snowflakes

1. The simplest method is the method that came from childhood, when a multi-layered sector on each side is cut off, forming figures and curls. To make such a snowflake you will need to purchase white or colored paper, a pencil and scissors. Proceed as follows:

• a sheet of A4 or A5 format is smoothed out on a flat, hard surface, a circle is drawn on it with a compass or using a round plate, then cut out;
• to get a six- or eight-layer sector, the resulting circle is folded in half several times (3 or 4);

Another way to form the outline of a snowflake

• then they begin to make snowflakes, creating a beautiful pattern using a ready-made pattern or their own imagination. Using a pencil, the pattern is applied to the workpiece, and the drawn diagram is cut out using sharp scissors;
• the workpiece is unfolded and smoothed using an iron and cloth (without steam);

The variety of shapes depends on the chosen scheme

1. A voluminous large snowflake can be made from several fragments, each of which is cut out and glued separately.

Snowflake from separate fragments

You can add originality to such a snowflake using glitter, which is applied to a surface coated with glue;

1. Using the quilling technique you can make an elegant and very beautiful snowflake.

This is a complex method that requires certain skills and time, but the result is striking in its beauty. There is a way to make a snowflake in a somewhat simplified way.

You can use newspaper or an old unwanted book, or a stack of white soft paper, glue and decorative glitter.

Christmas trees in a group from a variety of materials

Of course, the teacher can put up a Christmas tree in the group (an artificial one, since they put up a live one in just a few days). However, it can interfere with children’s activities and games (distract their attention, especially if the group room is not very large), and there is always a risk that the kids will accidentally knock it over.

A more acceptable option is to create an image of a Christmas tree in the group in the form of an original image on the wall. The easiest way is to mark the contours of the tree with a green garland.

This garland Christmas tree can be made in just a few minutes.

The garland can also be electric. At the same time, such a Christmas tree should hang high so that the kids cannot reach it. The teacher himself turns it on from time to time.

This Christmas tree should be located out of reach of children.

But you can go further and create unexpected original compositions. For example, you can cut out a Christmas tree from whatman paper, paint it green and decorate it with portraits of students (the teacher conducts a photo session in advance). The kids will be doubly pleased to look at such a New Year’s tree.

The shiny Christmas tree is decorated with children's portraits of them smiling.

A simple and original idea is to make a Christmas tree from ordinary wooden knots. They are covered with colored paper and placed on the wall in a certain order.

The knots are simply covered with colored paper and arranged in a certain order

A popular practice in kindergartens is to announce a “Mini Christmas Tree” craft competition for parents. Moreover, the main role here is played not by victory, but by participation. The creation of such compositions helps to unite family members, and a parade of Christmas trees in the group’s locker room will add a wonderful New Year’s flavor to it.

Simplest

Decorating windows with snowflakes is not difficult. You just need to cut out a fancy pattern from paper. You can glue them with double-sided tape or regular tape; the old proven method - soapy water - will also work. You can add originality to this ordinary activity by combining snowflakes of different sizes into a single composition. And the decorations don’t have to be white. A waltz of colorful snowflakes will bring fun and comfort to the children in the group and will delight passersby passing by the kindergarten building.

Letter box to Del Moroz

On New Year's Eve, many children write letters to Grandfather Frost asking him to bring them the most desired gifts. For this purpose, a good idea is to install a special mailbox in the kindergarten group. Of course, you need to make it yourself. Any box of suitable size will do: it is covered with colored paper, tinsel, and decorated with toys. Then a slot is made and the mail is ready. The box can be hung on the wall or placed on a table.

Photo gallery: examples of mailbox design

Golden tinsel against the background of red foil looks impressive

The design of the box features the attributes of Santa Claus - his red and white hat and belt with a wide buckle

The box is covered with ordinary wallpaper, but looks festive with foil snowflakes and shiny green balls

Children's faith in the fairytale Santa Claus is wonderful. Children can put letters in the mailbox that they write at home with their parents. In the preparatory group, some children already know how to read and write: the teacher can help them write letters according to a certain plan. First, you need to tell a little about yourself, your good deeds over the year, and then ask for gifts (just not very expensive ones, because grandpa doesn’t like greedy children).

Interesting drawings on windows for the New Year of the Dog 2020 - stencils and templates

To make an apartment, a school classroom or a playroom in a kindergarten look elegant and festive, it is not enough to decorate the walls and doorways with winter paraphernalia. In addition, you need to apply interesting drawings to the windows, symbolizing the onset of the New Year of the Dog 2020. To create thematic pictures you will need templates and stencils. They will help make your images clearer and more attractive.

Examples and options of stencils and templates for New Year's drawings on window glass

The Santa Claus template is always relevant and perfect for any New Year's composition.
It can be combined with other characters, for example, with the Dog, the symbol and patron of 2020.

Or with Snegurochka - an irreplaceable companion and granddaughter of a kind, bearded old man.

Or with a constant partner and faithful assistant, the Snowman.

Stencils of snowflakes and New Year's balls will serve as an addition to such paintings.

They can fill the empty spaces of the picture, making it more rich and multifaceted.

Drawing New Year's posters

An integral part of the New Year's decoration of the room is drawing and hanging posters. In the junior and middle groups, the teacher does this, while older preschoolers will be happy to take part in this work.

To work you will need whatman paper, various materials for drawing and applique, thematic stickers (for example, ready-made miniature snowflakes), tinsel for decorating the edges.

The content of the poster can be traditional New Year's characters: Grandfather Frost, Snow Maiden, snowmen. You can also depict a picture of a winter forest with its cute inhabitants (bunnies, squirrels, etc.), winter in the form of a beauty in a blue dress (like the Snow Queen, only kind), an animal that is a symbol of the coming year. An interesting idea is to place photographs of students on the poster: in the form of “New Year’s balls”, funny gnomes or snowmen (the teacher first conducts a photo shoot, putting caps or clown round noses made of foam rubber on the children).

DIY autumn window decoration in kindergarten

It’s rainy autumn outside and my soul is somehow cloudy and sad.
To fix this, you need to create a warm and cozy atmosphere at home, then autumn will sparkle with different colors! The news portal “Vtemu.by” in this article has prepared for you several options for decorating a window in autumn. It won’t take much time, but it will definitely please the household, especially the kids.

Crafts and decorations with the image of a dog - the symbol of 2020

The coming year 2020 will pass under the auspices of dogs. Therefore, the teacher can hold a competition among parents to create a craft depicting this kind and faithful animal.

By the way, the kindergarten management can announce the same competition among teachers. Each group presents its creative work, and at the very end of the year the results are summed up with the presentation of symbolic prizes.

To create a craft, you can take the following interesting ideas as a basis.

Dog made of nylon tights

To make an original dog, you will need perseverance and at least minimal sewing skills. For work you will need the following materials.

1. Flesh-colored nylon tights.
2. Threads similar in color, needle.
3. PVA glue.
4. Doll eyes.
5. Sintepon or other similar filler.
6. Dark gray eye shadow.

From a piece of nylon tights (30–50 cm long - depending on the desired size of the dog, because nylon stretches well) we make a blank - the head and torso of the dog: we stuff the nylon with padding polyester.

We stuff nylon with padding polyester

Using a needle and thread, we shape the doggie’s nose, separating a small ball.

Separate a small ball and form the nose of the dog using thread and needle

We do the cheeks in a similar way.

The dog's cheeks are made in the same way as the nose

To indicate the relief on the cheeks, we make small stitches over their entire surface. Then we form the muzzle further: the fold behind the nose, the brow ridges, the bridge of the nose (everything is done by folding the material and fixing it with threads).

All elements are formed by folding the material and fixing it with threads (the relief on the cheeks is formed by tightening stitches)

We sew up the back part and glue the eyes under the eyebrows.

After sewing up the back, glue on the dog’s eyes.

To color the toy we use eye shadow.

Realistically paint the dog's face with dark gray shadows

The missing parts (ears, paws and tail) are similarly formed from small pieces of nylon and filler. The ears and claws on the paws are also painted using shadows. You can put a children's vest on the finished dog - he will become more cute.

To make the finished dog even cuter, you can put a baby vest on it

New Year's dachshund made from salt dough

To create this craft you will need the following material.

1. Ready salted dough.
2. Knife, rolling pin.
3. Gouache, varnish.
4. Paint brushes.

First you need to draw the silhouette of a dachshund on paper, and then cut it out, removing small protruding parts (ears and tail).

Ears and tail need to be cut off

The dough should be rolled out into a layer approximately 4 cm thick, a stencil should be placed on the flatbread and cut along the contour (the remaining mass should be stored in the refrigerator). Use a wet brush to smooth out the angular cuts and moisten the dog’s face well. Two small balls of dough are formed into ovals and placed at the top of the muzzle. Another ball will become the nose. Using a knife, the eyelids and slightly open mouth of the dachshund are marked. From a large piece of dough we make a long, wide ear for the dog: first we form a sausage, and then flatten it along its entire length.

We form the eyes from small ovals, mark the eyelids and a slightly open mouth with a knife, and attach the ear

We “put” a funny hat on the dachshund (we make a triangle out of the dough and tilt one corner to the side). Use a knife or toothpick to mark a strip of “fur” along the edge of the cap.

We make a hat from a triangular piece of dough, tilting one corner back and marking a strip of fur at the bottom.

We also make a simple silhouette of a Christmas tree from the dough and sculpt it instead of a tail on the dog’s back. Using a knife, we give the Christmas tree some relief. Under the Christmas tree we place a garland of small balls, they are located at an equal distance from each other.

Adding elements of New Year's decor - Christmas trees and garland

The craft now needs to be dried and then beautifully painted. We paint the dog's body and head dark yellow. While it is still wet, make the edge of the ear and part of the back darker, light brown. It is necessary to achieve a smooth transition (this is why the yellow color should still be wet).

We paint the main part of the craft with a dark yellow color, and while it is still wet, we darken some parts

After the base has dried, paint the eyes and decorative elements. The finished dog is varnished. You can additionally glue shiny rhinestones with adhesive to the Christmas tree and garland.

We paint all the other elements, cover the dog with varnish and decorate with rhinestones

Decorating the walls

Themed decor on the wall

The most suitable surface on which to place themed decor is free walls. There are many design options - it can be applique, panels, stickers and paper crafts, balls, streamers and garlands, a flat Christmas tree or wreaths.

Decorating the New Year's interior with your own hands with paper snowflakes is an easy way to create a festive atmosphere

Important! When making jewelry, it is necessary to give preference to decorative techniques and materials that can be easily removed from the surface without damaging it, and also comply with all safety standards.

Christmas tree on the wall

Christmas tree made of corrugated paper

An interesting solution would be to place a paper Christmas tree on the wall. It will not take up free space and will not become an obstacle for children. The size can be chosen at your discretion.

To make it you will need:

1. Foam or cardboard base;
2. Green corrugated paper. You can combine several shades or add unexpected bright colors;
3. Tools you will need: adhesive tape, marker, scissors and PVA glue.

You can make a Christmas tree in the shape of a triangle or give it one of the indicated shapes

The first step is to make a frame from a cardboard sheet. If the tree is large, it is recommended to use several sheets or foam fragments.

• Strips of the required width are cut out of corrugated paper and cuts are made to the middle of the workpiece, imitating pine needles.

The width of the strip is selected depending on the size of the tree

• Glue the resulting strips sequentially from bottom to top, maintaining their horizontal position so that the craft looks neat. In principle, you can complicate the task and cut out strips of a wavy or zigzag shape - this will allow you to get a more expressive appearance of the Christmas tree.
• Considering that the decoration should be temporary, the base is not attached directly to the wall, but a hook on the back of the frame is used for this purpose. For temporary fastening, you can use double-sided tape, securing it along the contour of the craft.
• If desired, you can make a Christmas tree trunk from a piece of cardboard or polystyrene foam, covered with brown corrugated paper and secured to the craft with adhesive tape.

Panels and stickers

The panel can be decorated with three-dimensional figures, making it more interesting

Temporary decorations that can be easily removed or hung in another place include panels. To make it you will need:

1. For the base you need a piece of colored fabric . If the decorative plot details are white, then it is better to take dark blue or gray with a silver sheen, for example, satin;
2. For figures and letters - thick white paper, which can also be coated with glitter or painted with paints;
3. Scissors and glue - for securing panel elements to fabric.

The plot of the panel can be very different - as much as your imagination allows

• The necessary details are cut out of paper using stencils or drawing them by hand . Then they are applied to the canvas and, having fixed their location, they are glued.

Another simple way to make panels is using a photo frame.

Fabric applique

To make it, you should prepare a photo frame, a piece of cardboard of a suitable size, scraps of fabric and superglue. First you need to think through the plot of the application, and then begin to implement the idea.

The work occurs in the following sequence:

1. The cardboard must be attached to the fabric base, which will serve as the background of the image, and add 5-6 cm around the perimeter;
2. The fabric is cut out and glued to the cardboard with the front side. The supply of material is tucked onto the back side and glued;
3. Figures that will make up the plot are cut out of thick paper. They are used as a stencil for cutting out fragments from pieces of fabric and marking their location on the canvas;
4. Then the finished fragments are glued in the required sequence and the panel is inserted into the frame.

Button panel

An interesting way is to use buttons for panels. The base is prepared in the manner described above, only an insert of thin foam rubber is made between the fabric and the cardboard. After this, buttons of different diameters and colors are sewn on, and the product is inserted into the frame.

Salt dough panel

Panels made from salted dough, which is kneaded from flour (1 cup), salt (1 cup) and cold water (250 ml), are highly decorative and original. The dough should be tight.

Important! To prevent the material from drying out quickly, it is placed in a plastic bag.

After the main parts are sculpted, they must be left to dry - and only then can they be painted. You should not make them too bulky - this will take longer to dry and make them more difficult to fix to the base.

The basis can be thick fabric glued to cardboard. The finished parts are glued with superglue and framed.

Children can be involved in making salty parts

You can use ready-made stickers to decorate the wall. The clipart is so diverse that it allows you to create a variety of New Year's compositions in the interior.

These stickers can be used to decorate not only walls, but also lockers in the dressing room, headboards in the bedroom or doors.

Fairy lights

A garland in the form of colored light bulbs will adequately decorate a New Year's fairy-tale interior

Garlands are a universal decoration, varied both in appearance and purpose. You can decorate a wall, ceiling space, window, door and Christmas tree with a garland. You can purchase ready-made decorations, but those that you make yourself look no less festive.

Known to more than one generation - a garland of colored paper rings

A chain consisting of paper rings can be made together with your child. In kindergarten, you can ask parents and children to complete one small chain at a time, and then connect them all into one garland - this will clearly show the kids how the New Year holiday can unite and create, bringing everyone, without exception, the joy of celebrating the New Year.

An original and economical solution would be to use scraps of old wallpaper to make rings.

Making a chain garland is as follows:

1. The only materials and tools you need are paper, scissors and glue. Rings can be made from ordinary colored paper, foil, with a pattern, or from scraps of wallpaper, which can have not only a bright pattern, but also embossing or a pronounced texture;
2. Thin strips up to 1.5 cm wide and 8 to 12 cm long are cut out of paper. To make the rings more decorative, you can use curly scissors;
3. The first strip is folded into a ring and fixed with glue. The gluing of subsequent strips occurs in a similar way, after threading them into the previous ring.

Garland of links

You can make a chain of links without using glue. To do this you will need:

1. A template is made from thick paper or cardboard - half a link;
2. Cut out the required number of squares or rectangles from colored paper, which are folded in half;
3. The template is applied to the fold, traced and cut out;
4. The chain is assembled by threading each element into the previous one.

Garland - snowfall

A garland of flat circles looks original and is very quickly made. It will look equally impressive when positioned vertically or horizontally.

To make it you will need tape (sticky tape made of fabric), which is used by florists. White or colored paper, or ready-made round stickers. Alternatively, you can use medical white cotton. Then you will need a strong thread and needle.

The easiest way is to use ready-made round stickers

The manufacturing process is as follows:

1. If you don’t have a narrow tape (0.5 cm) at hand, you can divide the wider one into several strips of the required length;
2. When using ready-made sticker circles, one is peeled off and secured to the tape, and the second is glued to it on the other side so that the tape is in the middle between them;

Advice! For the tape to become sticky, it must be stretched or warmed in your hands.

If you have a sewing machine, then thick paper circles can be stitched

1. If the mugs are made of paper, then they are coated on the inside with glue to be fixed to the tape. Instead of tape, you can use regular fabric braid or strong thread.

A snow garland made of synthetic wool is another way to decorate the New Year's interior in a kindergarten. To do this, just slightly moisten your hands with water and form the required number of not very dense lumps of the required diameter from cotton wool. Then, using a needle, cotton balls are strung on a long strong thread in increments of 6-10 cm

Thread balls

Garlands made of thread balls look very magical, stylish and impressive, and if they are combined with LED lighting, a charming atmosphere is created - thanks to the unusual shadows that appear on the walls and ceiling of the room.

Each ball looks original and unique

Making such balls is very simple. This is a universal DIY New Year's decoration for the interior, since its cost is negligible, and such a garland can be used in any position and place: on the wall, under the ceiling, in a window opening and even on a Christmas tree.

Preparing to make a thread ball

The following tools and materials will be required:

1. Multi-colored threads that are used for knitting (yarn) or floss;
2. Helium or PVA glue;
3. Round balloons;
4. Clear varnish;
5. Needle;
6. A tube of cream or Vaseline;
7. A container for glue in the form of a shallow bowl;
8. Decor in the form of rhinestones, sparkles, beads, small plastic snowflakes;
9. To assemble the garland you will need a ribbon with LEDs or twine.

Creating a ball of thread

The work takes place in several stages:

1. Regular round balloons are inflated to the required size. The main thing here is not to make a mistake with the diameter; balls from 5 to 7 cm will look most neat;
2. The surface of each ball is lubricated before winding - this can be vegetable oil, Vaseline or regular hand cream. This is done so that the thread does not stick to the ball - after it bursts, the thread structure may become deformed;
3. The glue is poured into a bowl so that the thread can be wetted, but there is another “cleaner” way - a plastic jar of glue is pierced through with a needle threaded. By pulling the thread, it will be covered with an even layer of glue.

New Year's balls in the interior

Important! It is necessary that the thickness of the needle matches the thickness of the thread as much as possible, otherwise the latter will be either too dry or wet, which will affect the final result.

1. The process of making a ball involves winding a thread passed through glue onto a base. The winding should be tight. If the ball is subject to additional decoration, then it is performed at this stage;
2. The finished product is left to dry; you can use a hairdryer to speed up the process. The thread should not just be dry, but hard. Only after this can the inner ball burst and carefully remove it;
3. The final touch will be fixing the balls on a decorative cord or a finished garland with light bulbs.

Advice! If you buy a garland that runs on batteries rather than the mains, this will allow you to hang the decoration anywhere in the garden.

3. When the outline is ready, dip a sponge or foam rubber into white paint and cover the main surface of the snowman figure with it. To prevent the paint from going beyond the boundaries, go over the edge with a brush and bring the white coating as close as possible to the black outline.
4. Use a red tint to paint the bucket on the snowman's head and the flag on which the congratulations will then be written.

7. At the end, draw a smiling face for the snowman. Additional decorate the free space of the window with snowflakes painted with white paint or cut out of shiny paper.

Christmas tree decoration

Decorating a group for the New Year begins with a Christmas tree. For kindergarten, it is better to choose an artificial spruce, since some children may be allergic to pine needles. Jewelry must be safe. The decoration of the Christmas tree when celebrating the New Year should take into account the tendency of children to run around and destroy everything in their path.

Here are the options:

• Handmade paper toys. These could be snowflakes, lanterns, paper garlands. Even balls can be made from paper. There are special stencils for this.

Christmas trees made from paper napkins

• Items of clothing. You can use lost mittens here. If one mitten is lost, the child will no longer need the other. It can be hung on the Christmas tree. Bright hats, scarves, socks, and sneakers are suitable. A bow made from a wide ribbon will perfectly decorate the Christmas tree in the garden.

• Sweets and other products. You can hang fake candies on the Christmas tree - a piece of cotton wool is wrapped in the wrapper. Small pasta toys make good toys. They are painted in different colors, glued together in several pieces and a ribbon or thread is tied to them. Parents can help decorate the tree by making cookies at home in different shapes. A thread is threaded into the cookie using a needle, and the toy is ready. You can hang real candies and tangerines on the Christmas tree so that during the game a prize will be ready for the winner.

Pasta decorations

• Available and pre-prepared materials. If children collect pine cones in the forest in the fall, they are perfect for decorating a Christmas tree. A garland of LED light bulbs perfectly complements the outfit of a New Year's tree. If the teachers decide to hang it, it is necessary to hide the cord in the branches so that the children themselves do not try to turn on the garland.

• Fabric products. In the older groups of kindergarten, during classes you can invite girls to make decorations from fabric with their own hands. To do this, take 2 circles of the same size from bright fabric and sew them together along the edge, but not all the way. An unsewn piece 2–3 cm long is left. Then the circle is turned inside out with the seam. It is stuffed with cotton wool through the hole. The unfinished edge is sewn up, and a thread is threaded with a needle for fastening to the tree. Parents can sew more complex versions of the figures and also stuff them with cotton wool.
