Fold each in half, being careful to fit the edges carefully.

Glue together one half-side of one piece with the half-side of the other.

Glue all 6 parts together, then put the thread in the center and secure it with tape. In principle, glue will also cope with this task, but with scotch tape it is faster and more reliable.

Glue the last two sides together to form a complete, voluminous Christmas tree bell.

2. A complex toy for a Christmas tree with your own hands

Redraw or print the template.

Cut out 6 shapes.

Fold them in half.

Take one part and apply glue to its half, glue the second part to it with one side, adjusting the ornament.

Repeat until all 6 pieces are glued together.

Before gluing the remaining edges, do not forget to place a string or thread in the middle of the toy, making a loop out of it.

3. A toy for a Christmas tree in the form of a multi-colored whirligig

Now we complicate the work a little, although it still remains as easy as the previous ones.

Cut 6 pieces according to the template, but in different colors. Alternatively, some may repeat in color.

Glue the sides, first placing a loop-thread inside.

4. Paper bear

Children will especially enjoy making this Christmas tree decoration and then contemplating on the tree. Cut 6 bears according to the template.

Fold them in half.

Glue one side of the bear blank to the other side of the second blank.

Before gluing the last sides, glue the thread on the tape in the middle, making a loop out of it.

Finally, on all parts, you can draw the eyes of the bear, the muzzle. You can and completely colorize. Draw a smile, claws, circle the ears.

5. Volumetric Christmas tree toy made of paper in the shape of a star

The craft is being crafted in the same way as the previous ones, but you can also add an insert of a different color to it in the middle.

Cut 6 stars out of paper of the same color according to the template. And 6 stars, slightly smaller, made of paper of a different color.

Glue the small stars in the middle of the larger ones.

Fold in half.

Glue the halves of the sides, place the string inside and glue the remaining two halves of the sides. The asterisk is ready.

These are the Christmas tree decorations made of paper for the Christmas tree. They can be very different, because it all depends on the template used, of which there are thousands on the Internet. You can even completely decorate the Christmas tree with your own hand-made paper animals, birds, ornaments of various shapes, which are mastered in the same way as the step-by-step photo instruction on creating volumetric objects presented above.

Today we invite you and your baby to make a hat in the shape of a dinosaur head. This master class is so simple that a child from the age of 3 will need very little help from you.

Materials:

  • 3 sheets of colored paper;
  • Glue stick or PVA;
  • Scotch;
  • Scissors.

Instructions:

Step 1. Cut 4 strips about 3 cm wide along the long side of the sheet of paper. Two of these strips will turn into a headband, and the other two - into “cap” crossbars, on which the dinosaur spikes will stick.

Step 2. Take two other sheets of paper and cut them into strips about 5 cm wide along the short side of the paper. You can measure and cut stripes by eye, but in the end you should get 5 strips from each sheet. We need these blanks to make thorns.

Step 3. Fold each blank for the thorns in half and, stepping back about 1.5 cm from the fold, draw a marking in the form of a triangle up to the very edge (see photo). Next, just cut out the future spikes.

Step 4. Glue two strips-crossbars, and then glue spikes on them in a row as shown in the photo below.

Step 5. While the glue is drying, adjust the two pieces of the headband to fit the circumference of the child's head, and then use tape to join them in a circle.

Step 6. Now let's go back to the spikes. Turn the crossbar over so that the spikes are on the table and bend each of them well (see photo). Form the first spike: cover one side with glue and connect it to the other. Use paper clips to hold the spike in place until the glue dries. Repeat these steps for the rest of the pins.

Step 7. After the glue is dry, remove the staples from the cleats and simply glue the crossbar to the headband at the front and back.
