Summary "The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio"
Long stories are difficult for babies to take, so tell them the story in your own words.
It all started in the Mediterranean. Organ-grinder Carlo lived here. One day his friend Giuseppe came to him and brought him a piece of wood. The friend said that Carlo is all alone and alone, there is no one to help the old man, and from the log he can make himself a son.
The organ-grinder got down to business, and soon the log took on the shape of a boy. But when Carlo wanted to shorten his long nose, the workpiece screamed, and had to leave the facial feature like that.
When the organ-grinder went to buy clothes for a wooden child, he met a cricket at that time, but managed to quarrel with him. The wise inhabitant of the closet told Buratino that behind the painted hearth there is a secret door, it can be opened with a golden key.
Summary "The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio" continues the story that Carlo's dad sold his jacket, but bought Pinocchio's clothes, alphabet so that the kid could go to school.
But on the way there, the mischievous man turned into a puppet theater to watch the performance. In the process of action, he stands up for the unjustly offended character and disrupts the performance.
The owner of the puppet theater Karabas Barabas wanted to punish Buratino, burn him like a piece of wood. However, the boy admits that it is impossible to burn him, because once he saw the hearth, but only pierced a hole in it with his nose.
Karabas Barabas perked up, it became clear that he knew the secret of the golden key. Having let Buratino go home, the owner of the puppet theater even gave him money so that he and his father would not starve to death. Karabas Barabas told them not to leave the closet.
When everyone left, the owner of the puppet theater called his friend Duremar, told him about where the secret door was, and the key was hidden by the tortoise Tortilla.
But this does not end with a summary of the Golden Key, or the adventures of Pinocchio. As a result, the wise Tortilla gave the key to the good Pinocchio. At the end of the tale, he, together with friends from the puppet theater, opens a secret door.
But on the way to success, the little mischievous guy had to show his ingenuity and courage. Only in this way he was able to escape from the clutches of the cunning fox Alice and the cat Basilio. Buratino helped Malvina, Artemon and Piero escape from Karabas Barabas and Duremar.

Now the guys will know who has what character, which of the representatives of the fabulous puppet theater looks like.
Sew costumes in which little ones can have fun at a matinee or at home.
How to sew a Buratino costume with your own hands?
Of course, one of the main details of his outfit is the cap. To sew such a hat, you will need:
- fabric in red and white (you can take a striped canvas);
- scissors;
- threads;
- pom-pom tassel.
You need to make a pattern. The base of the cap is a cone. Measure the volume of the child's head, as many centimeters will be the widest part of this figure.
Here Pinocchio's cap is made for a child whose head volume is 50 cm. As you can see, this cone will need to be attached to the fabric, cut out with seam allowances, and connect the opposite edges of the triangle to make a cap.
It is good if you have a white fabric with a red stripe. If this is not available, then you need to sew red ribbons on a white canvas or white ones on a red one. Tuck the cap underneath, leaving enough room to insert the elastic. Then the cap will not come off the head of the child. Make a fabric tassel or a white or red pom-pom from yarn and sew to the end of the cap.
Our hero's spacious jacket looks like a wide T-shirt. To make Pinocchio's costume further, reshoot the presented pattern. You can increase or decrease as required.
You can do it easier by taking a child's T-shirt, which is still big for him and making a pattern based on this thing.
If the size of the collar of the jacket is sufficient for the child to put it over the head without hindrance, then do not make a fastener. In this case, you will need to cut out one piece of the front and back. If the neckline of the T-shirt makes it difficult to put on, then you need to cut out two parts of the back, so that you can then make a fastener or a tie between them.
Stitch the details, sew the sleeves into the armholes. Process the neck and bottom of the product. A pattern will also help to sew the shorts.
You need to reshoot this pattern and cut out 2 parts. Now sew the crotch seams, then the side seams. Hem the bottom of the product, hem up to insert the elastic here.
Cut the collar out of the white fabric, sew it onto the top of the jacket. Here's how to make a Pinocchio costume with your own hands. White knee-highs, shoes or gym shoes will complement the look.
All that remains is to make the golden key.
This will require:
- cardboard;
- glue;
- gold foil or gold paint with a brush;
- Scotch;
- scissors.
Draw the presented key pattern on a piece of cardboard, cut out. Make a few more of these blanks, glue them together. If the key consists of 3-4 cardboard elements, it will acquire the necessary rigidity.
When the glue dries, you will need to paint the key with gold paint or wrap it with gold foil, securing it with tape.
The hero's clothes are ready, you need to make Malvina's costume. Any girl will want to play her role. Prepare everything you need and get started.
Malvina's costume from the fairy tale "The Golden Key"
If this pattern is suitable for your daughter, niece or granddaughter, use it. You can increase or decrease the provided template by one size, add or subtract slightly in the center or on the sides. Here are the details of this Malvina dress:
- in front of the upper part of the dress - one detail;
- backrest - 2 parts;
- sleeves - 2 pieces;
- collar - 4 parts;
- flounces for a skirt.
Crafting workshop:
- First you need to make the undercuts, overdue according to the indicated marks in the front and back. Sew together 2 pieces of the back, leaving a small space at the top unstitched, so that you can then sew in a zipper here or sew on a button with an eyelet.
- Sew the details of the front and back of the bodice on the sides. Sew on sewn sleeves.
- In place of the sleeves, marked on the pattern with a dotted line, it is necessary to first sew in a soft elastic band, slightly stretching it. Then the cuffs will be fluffy.
- Stitch the collar details, sew them on the neckline.
- Collect the skirt. To do this, you need to cut out several rectangles of different sizes. From above they are collected on a thread. Now put these shuttlecocks one on top of the other so that the largest is at the bottom and the smallest at the top.
You can do it differently - sew a flared skirt first, and sew flounces of the same width onto it. And here's how to sew a Malvina costume according to a different pattern.
Another piece of clothing of this heroine is pantaloons. The pattern below will help you create them.
As you can see, you need to sweep the pants, make drawstrings, into which the elastic bands are then threaded and secured. If you managed to buy a light blue wig when Malvina's costume is complemented by this item. If this did not work out, then it is enough to tie a large bow or a silk scarf of this color on the girl's head, and the image will be complete.
It remains to put on beautiful shoes and tights for the girl, and Malvina's costume is ready.
How to sew a Pierrot costume?
This is another character in the tale.
- You can make a costume for Pierrot very quickly. This will require a large white shirt. The slits on the sleeves must be continued, and fluffy cuffs must be sewn at the bottom. The bottom of the pants must be decorated in the same way.
- Attach cardboard circles to the fabric, cut out the same circles from it, but with a margin to tuck the edges under the cardboard, then sew these buttons onto Pierrot's robe.
- Make a cap for it from a Whatman paper, rolling it into a cone. It remains to apply black and white makeup to the face to complete the look.
- See how to make shuttlecocks for this character's costume. To do this, cut out a strip of fabric 100–150 cm long and 10–15 cm wide. If it is a lace or knitted fabric, the edges of which do not "crumble", then you do not need to hem them. If the fabric is different, then you will need to hem them.
- Now draw two parallel lines with a long ruler. Sew with a thread and a needle, first one at a time, and then along the other markings. Tighten the thread, tie in knots.
Pierrot's next costume for the fairy tale "The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio" is also easy to make. A spacious shirt with long sleeves is sewn of white silky fabric. You need to sew a collar to it.
To do this, cut out two large circles of different sizes from the transparent canvas. Attach small to large, gather on a thread. Top this element with a knitted tape. Sew Pierrot's collar onto the neck of his shirt.
Here is a shirt pattern.
The pants are also loose. You can take the boy's pants as a basis, increasing the pattern. Make one leg white and the other black. An elastic band is inserted into the belt, black circles are sewn on the light part of the trousers and on the shirt.
Sew pom-poms as a finish. The following photo tip will help you make them.
As you can see, filler is placed in the center of the circle of fabric. Then the cloth along the edge is collected on a thread, tightened, and fixed.
Here's how to make a Pierrot costume.
Crafts for the fairy tale Golden Key
Get creative with your kids. If you are knitting a sweater or sweater for a child, trim the edges of the garment or on the sleeve cuffs in the form of keys.
Focusing on the presented scheme, knit with threads of the same color in the cells that are drawn here in black. To make the keys clearly visible, make them with darker yarn, and the background will be light.
The same pattern will come in handy if you embroider. Then follow the keys with gold thread, and make the background white.
Crafts based on the fairy tale "The Golden Key" using paper are very interesting.
As you can see, first you need to roll the cut out rectangles of paper with a tube, fix this figure in this position with glue.
After that, the facial features of the heroes are drawn with a marker. For Pinocchio, you need to make a nose and a key from yellow paper. Also, hair is cut out of it, and the cap is made of white and red stripes.
Malvina's dress and hair are made of blue colored paper, and the bow is made of pink. Pierrot's costume is light here and complemented by elements of colored paper. Matching sad makeup will complement the image of a lover.
Here are some other masterpieces that paper plastic can make. The images of the dolls are very realistic.
The trimming technique will also make it possible to make a wonderful craft based on the fairy tale "The Adventures of Buratino".
- To do this, you need to glue small paper trims on a cardboard base, making water lily leaves from green elements, and the flowers of this plant from white and yellow ones.
- For Pinocchio, you need paper squares of yellow, red, blue, white.
- Such a craft looks great on blue cardboard. If your base is white, then you first need to paint it with blue paint or glue paper of that color.
