Bears in a den

The idea to make a bear in a den is a great option for the craft. Reminds maximum applique, but the volume adds absorbent cotton.

It is easy to make a handicraft, it is enough to adhere to the following steps:

• Choose cardboard of the right color for the base.
• On brown paper, draw the bear on the wrong side of the paper as well.
• Cut it out with scissors, dab it with glue and fix it on the cardboard.
• With the help of absorbent cotton, lay around the bear like a den. Fix the bear with glue.

This idea can be implemented in many different ways - a den can be constructed in the woods, among the trees. It will be necessary to create vegetation from paper - this will complicate the process, but also give it originality and completeness of the composition.

Bear from cones

The bear can be made from interesting natural materials. By collecting spruce or pine conesIt is easy to use them for the craft.

If cones are different sizes - you can make a bear family.

The sequence of operations is as follows:

• Take a thick cardboard or a piece of plywood. It will be the basis for the handicraft.
• Clear cones of seeds. The seeds do not throw away.
• Glue small ones to a large cone. They will form the arms legs and head. Gluing will take a certain amount of time. You have to hold the cone until the glue dries.
• Make small circles out of plasticine - these will be the eyes.
• Make a nose out of a small dot.
• Use pink plasticine to make a mouth.
• Fix the bear to the base - do it with glue.

Decorate additionally the basis with different material. Clay can be used to make trees. Make a house of a bear from matches. From rowanberries and cranberries on branches to imitate trees.

Everything is limited only by imagination.

Bear from nuts

You can make handicrafts out of different materials. Any kind of nuts will do. In this case, you can do not just a handicraft, and toy, though for a child of age 6 +, to prevent ingestion of small parts. The craft is done in the following way:

• It is necessary to pick up several kinds of nuts different in size and shape.
• Walnut or macadamia nuts will be the largest. They will serve as the body of the bear.
• For the head you can take hazelnut.
• The paws are made of almonds.
• Note that the feet can be made from peeled nuts. Cashews, peanuts or almonds will do. They look natural and are the right size.
• Once it is decided what nuts will be used and what will serve as a certain part of the body, you need to start fixing the elements.
• The parts are attached using moment glue or another type with a strong fixation. You will need to hold out a certain amount of time so that the elements will be attached to each other and the glue will hold together reliably enough.
• At this point, the product is not ready yet. You need to make the elements of the muzzle. Use plasticine or applique made from colored paper.
• You can make the elements of clothing and other entourage, if the bear is planned not as a toy, but as a real handicraft.

Making this product will take some time and effort. But the attractiveness and originality will compensate for the work and time spent.

You can use for the bear a new crop of nuts, which are still in the green skin - so you get the original green Gummy Bear.

A bear made of absorbent cotton

The white bear will turn out naturalistic, if you apply absorbent cotton. Such a handicraft is made as follows:

• On dense cardboard, an image of a bear is drawn using a simple pencil.
• After that, the absorbent cotton is fluffed up.
• Inside the outline you need to brush the entire area with a thin layer of glue.
• Then, tearing off small pieces of absorbent cotton, fix them inside the contour so that they do not go beyond.
• After finishing the process of gluing the background, you need to make the eyes and the nose of the bear.
• The eye can be made by gluing a sunflower seed.
• The nose can be made with a piece of black cardboard, fixing it at the tip of the face.
• Complete the background with snowflakes made of silver foil.

The bear is ready - this master class is simple enough, suitable for young children to train their hand and get new tactile sensations from contact with smooth metal surfaces and fluffy absorbent cotton.

These ideas are not definitive - there are many more. If your imagination doesn't go that far, you can use ready-made photos on the Internet and copy the craft from there. Or better yet, ask your kid to come up with what you can make a brown and white bear from.
