Slip on the trunk of the animal's muzzle or just a mug with eyes, nose, mouth. Add details using twigs, bark, cones. Snow cakeTurn the usual pile of snow into a large cake. It can be molded by hand or with the help of basins. Decorate with cones, branches, pebbles, colorful ice or berries, beans and croup will also suit. Light real candles or Bengal lights.A photo: Getty Images A bird feeder The kids like to watch birds. To draw them, make a feeder. The simplest can be made from packs of juice and dairy products. Such a package can be pasted with colored pencils or twigs. Before gluing the twigs, it is better to paint the package in a dark color, so that the background does not shine through. The package can be painted with acrylic paints, decorated in decoupage style, decorated with stickers, decorative adhesive tape, self-adhesive film, multi-colored insulating tape. You need a bottle of vinegar, a pack of soda, red gouache, dish detergent, plastic bottle. give it the shape of a future volcano. In the middle of the hill put a plastic bottle, for example from under drinking yogurt. In a bottle about 2/3 of the volume, pour in soda, add red gouache and a little detergent.

Games at home

Attach a blank sheet of paper from above and ask the child to draw a pattern through the gap. You can paint on a foggy window. Show the children how to use a fingerprint and fingers to make a path from small tracks. Paint salt and sparkles. To do this, paint the moistened sheet of paper with watercolor paint (the best effect is obtained when using liquid watercolor). While the paint is not dry, sprinkle the pattern with salt and sparkles. After a while, beautiful snow stars will appear from the salt in the drawing. Cardboard townOn a single box house you can build a whole city. Let the child place them on the floor the way he likes, as if it were a great designer. You can make a medieval city with a castle, a farm, a city with high-rise buildings or houses on the coast by the sea. To the city turned out interesting and beautiful, use different materials. Paint or decorative paper tape, glued on the carpet or on the floor, will perfectly play the role of roads for machines. Clearing such roads from snow (cotton balls) will be a toy tractor. The sea can be made of cloth, paper or a garbage bag of blue color; of crumpled white or gray paper - rocks and mountains. White fabric, such as a sheet, turn into a snow cover.A photo: Getty Images Puppet TheaterTake a child to the puppet theater and during the performance, pay attention to the curtain, dolls, scenery, musical accompaniment, and at home suggest you come up with your own production. Play a famous fairy tale that your child likes, or make up your own story. As a scene, you can use the back of the chair or the edge of the table. Puppet breeders can also hide behind a cloth thrown over a rope that is stretched in a room or in a doorway. For such a theater, you can buy or make dolls on your hand or fingers, and also use any toys that are at home. Kids like the simplest options: a sock or mitten with an attached eye, hair or ears attached to the hand. Ice games You can make ice with a hole in the house. To do this, pour water on the bottom of the container for 4-5 cm, put in the center a plastic container with a load and put it in the freezer. To get the resulting ice, lower the container in hot water and pour it into the central container. Water can be poured directly into the container, and after a while ice with a hole will rise to the surface. Place a hole in a large container of water to dive animals, or leave it in your container and arrange ice fishing. Such ice is especially interesting to take with you to the bath. In ice, you can specifically freeze various objects: put the plastic figures in balloons, and then fill them with water and freeze.
