Interesting DIY crafts for Cosmonautics Day. DIY space - a step-by-step master class for creating a composition on a space theme. Supplies needed for a fun pasta craft for Cosmonautics Day

April 12 marks a significant holiday - World Aviation and Cosmonautics Day. In all educational institutions, all kinds of educational events on this topic are held with children, exhibitions and competitions are organized, and they give the opportunity to express themselves in creativity. On this day, the great feat of Yuri Gagarin and the entire Soviet people is remembered in television and radio programs, at themed evenings and holidays.

In this master class I will show you how to make crafts for Cosmonautics Day with step-by-step photographs with your own hands - an astronaut, a satellite, a solar system, a rocket, etc.

An astronaut, a conqueror of space outside of planet Earth, is a dangerous profession, however, all the children of the world dream of becoming such brave heroes. To achieve your goal, you should work long and hard, train, harden and study.

Astronaut is the most desired profession for boys who want to conquer the Universe. And they watch space flights, discoveries in infinite space, and the adventures of great people with special trepidation.

How to make crafts for Cosmonautics Day

Plasticine astronaut

For Cosmonautics Day we will prepare a wonderful one - this is an astronaut. His figure is sculpted using a fairly simple method. The main thing is to show the spacesuit, the special uniform.

In April, you can make a similar object in preparation for a significant event.

What you will need to sculpt this space craft:

  • white and blue (or gray) plasticine;
  • tool.

How to make an astronaut figurine step by step

It is necessary to show, first of all, the human figure. To make a real spacesuit in which a person can stay in space for a long time, breathe and be protected from radiation, you should choose white plasticine and add blue inserts to it.

Make several white parts from soft plasticine. The body should be elongated, the head should be rounded, but slightly flattened. Sleeves and clothing on the legs can be stacked, consisting of individual balls. Make several small balls for further sculpting of the four limbs.

Fasten the head and torso. You can immediately flatten the helmet; stick a blue or gray round windshield onto the front of the white ball. Gradually the appearance of the astronaut begins to emerge.

Glue additional parts onto the body and fasten the belts. This can be done by sticking a gray plate with several dots in front, and also by crossing the fasteners on the chest.

Now continue the assembly by adding legs and arms. Make legs from three or four white balls prepared earlier. If the plasticine has already hardened, cooled down, and does not stick well, then you can put toothpicks inside.

Make the lowest parts blue or gray. Of course, shoes are of no use in flight, but it is still customary to depict something like them on your feet.

Using a similar method, glue the hands, adding blue gloves to the bottom. An astronaut's spacesuit must be completely sealed, isolated from the environment, or rather, from its absence, because there is no atmosphere in space.

But a person definitely needs to breathe oxygen. To do this, you should build a tube and oxygen cylinders. To do this, make a thin thread from blue plasticine, as well as a blue block. Glue one end of the tube in front to the helmet glass.

Glue the oxygen bag from behind to the back and the other end of the tube there.

Now the astronaut is ready to go far to the Moon or even further to Mars or Venus - to conquer the endless spaces of the Universe.

Craft SPACE for kindergarten

Plasticine application for Cosmonautics Day “Flight to the Moon”

Have you ever tried to draw with plasticine, and not just draw by smearing different shades of soft mass on paper, but create real pictures from thin flagella? You have the opportunity to try this interesting method of creativity if you are reading this article. In this lesson we will talk about an unusual craft for Cosmonautics Day, which the whole country celebrates on April 12.

The proposed craft is relevant because it is an applique or postcard that can be called “Flight to the Moon.” Shown here is a fragment of outer space, a high-speed rocket that is approaching the surface of the Moon. The main background is created in the form of flagella, now let’s look at how exactly.

To create a space application, prepare:

  • plasticine of different blue and purple shades to create a general background;
  • yellow, orange, white plasticine for creating cosmic bodies and particles of the Moon;
  • white and gray plasticine for the rocket;
  • cardboard of any color;
  • body from an old pen.

How to make an application for Cosmonautics Day with your own hands

First, prepare cardboard and blue and purple plasticine. There is quite a long, albeit painstaking, work ahead to create flagella. It is better to use soft types of material.

Tear small portions from the prepared dark pieces, knead them in your hands, and roll out thin sausages. These sausages can come in different thicknesses and sizes. Also use different shades of plasticine and even mix the pieces you have available. You need to make enough material to cover the main part of the picture completely, without gaps.

Mix some yellow and orange plasticine. Glue the resulting cake into the bottom corner of the picture. Make an imitation cheese using the body of an old pen. This will be part of the Earth's satellite.

Start chaotically gluing the dark sausages. Do it casually, without emphasizing smooth and clear lines. First, stick a few sausages randomly to mark some boundaries for convenience.

Then gradually fill the entire free surface of the application. To be safe, you can press the picture down on top with your palm. Thus, you will get a believable outer space if you use plasticine of different shades.

Make a flat oval piece for the rocket body, as well as the gray legs. Orange and yellow colors of plasticine are needed for the escaping flame.

Glue the rocket with flames and portholes. Now she is rapidly flying towards the Moon or even further.

Stick on some sparkling stars that twinkle in endless space to complete your cosmic composition.

The result is such an interesting DIY craft for Cosmonautics Day.

What child doesn’t dream of flying far beyond the Earth on a real rocket, becoming a conqueror of space, becoming famous and receiving the status of the strongest and bravest? To do this, you need to be an astronaut and train for a long time to get into sufficient physical shape.

But no one will forbid us to dream, just as no one will forbid us to do interesting handicrafts. Together with your child, you can make an interesting origami rocket model out of paper - this is a craft option for Cosmonautics Day. Even the smallest children can master such a lesson.

Cut 2 identical squares from the sheet. Use one yourself, and give the second to your baby. Perform all movements slowly. You will see how easily your child will repeat all your movements and get his own model of a rocket.

And the reward for your efforts will be a porthole. You can attach a small photograph of the young designer to it. Thus, such a rocket can be considered as an unusual photo frame. The captain of the spaceship, of course, will be the child who tried so hard to make it.

To create a rocket using the origami technique you will need:

  • bright paper;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • children's small photograph;
  • red cardboard;
  • black marker.

How to make a craft rocket for Cosmonautics Day with your own hands

To work you will need a square. It is better to take a ready-made square sheet. If only rectangular sheets are available, then one corner can be folded, aligning the short side with the long adjacent side, then trim off the excess. In this case, you will get a fold along one diagonal, which will not be needed in the work, but it will not hurt.

Unfold the square and fold it in half lengthwise.

Unfold the paper and fold 2 sides of the square parallel to it and to each other to the highlighted strip. You will get some kind of shutters.

Unfold the paper and, turning the square so that the fold is vertical, close the 2 corners in the center, highlighting the shape of the house.

Now leaving the formed corner in its original position, again make bends along the previously marked lines. First, unscrew one side piece.

Then return the side to its original position, but not completely, but by bending it in the center. This will highlight one side of the rocket.

Carry out the same folding procedure on the opposite side. First, fold the side part.

Then return in the same direction, but making a bend in the center. Thus, the folded paper model will already look like a rocket with a high, sharp dome.

Turn the paper over. Using scissors, make small cuts in the lower part (where the rocket wings and body meet). Fold the corners and glue to highlight the wings.

Make a paper model.

In this master class, see how to make such a toy together with your son or daughter.

In order to launch it into the air, you will need a cocktail straw. Carefully insert it under the bottom of the rocket and blow. This will lift the rocket up some distance, the height of the lift will depend on the force of exhalation and the weight of the craft itself.

What space crafts to make with your own hands

Now we will talk about how to make a craft about space with your own hands. Of course, in our article you can find not only simple crafts, but also the most original ones, which may become a decoration for your home or an exhibition.

Applications on a space theme.

Preschoolers should develop fine motor skills before going to school. Therefore, for the space application, prepare cereals or beans.

To make a beautiful craft for your child, first of all show him the planet Jupiter. To do this, use some picture.

Then cut out a circle from white cardboard and decorate it with beans of different colors. Of course, in this work it is necessary to use glue.

To create the next application you will need 3 disposable plates. Make the sun from one plate, and the planet Earth from the other. Make a month from the third plate.

Take 2 sheets of cardboard. One should have a dark shade and the other should be light. Decorate the cardboard with clouds and stars.

For the next application, paint the album sheet with dark blue or black paint. Cut out individual characters from colored paper. Create a composition.

Drawing the solar system is very simple. Glue several buttons and a yellow circle to the white sheet of the album.

Space rocket.

A beautiful craft about space, which was created with your own hands, can be a voluminous work. In order to make such a rocket you will need a large cardboard case. It can be made from a long roll or from a couple of these cardboard rolls.

The rocket body should be covered with white paper. Also attach a cone-shaped tip to the body. Also cover the tip with snow-white paper.

Later, using felt-tip pens or paints, you will paint your rocket. Now, it’s worth making the rocket nozzles. This requires larger rolls of cardboard. Cover them with white paper and attach them to the rocket and glue them. Nozzles should have tips, but they should not be sharp.

It is also worth making tanks for the rocket. For these, use smaller rolls.

You can decorate the rocket at your discretion. Paste them over or decorate them with felt-tip pens.

Mini rocket.

If you don’t have a huge cone at home, you can make a beautiful space rocket from a roll of toilet paper. Take a look at the master class that will help you make this craft. As you can see, there is nothing complicated here.

They told the children that this year, on April 12, the whole world is celebrating 55 years since the first human flight in space. The children listened with great interest about the first flights with living creatures on board, about the dogs Belka and Strelka. The fact that scientists decided to fulfill their cherished dream - to send human space, it was Yu. A. Gagarin. After the conversation, the children told what it should be like astronaut(healthy, strong, smart, courageous, hardy, courageous). We held thematic discussions, read stories, fairy tales, learned poetry, and watched presentations. The most interesting for children were playing space games, build a rocket from building material.
