Crafts on the theme "Take care of nature", drawings on the theme "Ecology of nature" will help children to instill a love for their native land, to learn how to use waste material. It is necessary to cultivate a respect for nature in children from childhood. After all, if parents allow themselves to litter in the forest, then their children will behave the same way. If adults show children how to protect nature, love it, then the kids will grow up as worthy people. Be more in nature with children, tell them about plants and trees. Collect natural material: cones, bunches of mountain ash, plant seeds, so that you can do joint work at home.
Crafts "Take care of nature"
Children love to color. Therefore, print a poster on this topic in black and white, give the kids creative freedom. Let them add bright colors to the canvas using crayons, pencils, felt-tip pens or paints. Tell them what shade the elements of the poster should be, but if the children want to show their vision of the plot, do not interfere with them, let them show their individuality. Then teach them how to make crafts on the theme of “Take care of nature”. Prepare everything you need in advance.
Craft "Waterfall"
If you went out with the children on a picnic, after the feast, tell them that plant residues can be buried in the forest, they will rot. But with plastic bottles, such a number will not work. Therefore, you need to take them with you in order to throw them in the trash can or do the wonderful job for which you need:
- plastic bottle;
- cardboard;
- scissors;
- water;
- Cup;
- beads;
- colored paper;
- felt-tip pens;
- gouache.
Use scissors to help your baby cut the plastic bottle in half across, almost in half. The top should be slightly smaller than the bottom. The child will paint this half with a neck to turn it into a fish, then draw an eye for it with a felt-tip pen; a sheet of blue cardboard will turn into water. At the bottom you need to glue the beads, and cut out a kind of pebbles from multi-colored paper.
It remains to glue the "fish" on the blue cardboard, draw air bubbles in the water.
Crafts from natural material
To create it you will need:
- Walnut;
- cone;
- dry grass;
- tree branches;
- saw cut from a dry tree trunk, which will become a stand;
- glue.
On the saw cut of a tree - a wooden stand, the child will glue dry grass, and attach the twigs using plasticine. Lesovichek will live in this forest. His baby will make from a walnut, which will become a head and bumps - this is a body. These parts must be connected with plasticine. Facial features are also made from it. But it is necessary to use plasticine of the corresponding colors, as well as for plants, mushrooms, which must be attached to a stand.
Write “Take care of the forest!” With a bright marker along the edge of the stand, and if the child is already familiar with literacy, let him do it himself.
Drawings on the theme "Ecology of nature"
Such creativity will also instill in children a love for their native land. If they were asked to bring drawings on the theme of the ecology of nature to a children's institution, the following can be advised.
In this poster, the author shows how specifically each person can help preserve a normal ecology and pies. For this you need:
- clean up trash after yourself;
- after resting by the fire, be sure to put it out;
- not pouring water in vain;
- save electricity;
- take care of your home.
Reducing harmful emissions into the atmosphere will also help preserve the environment. It is not for nothing that in the summer, motorists are encouraged to change to bicycles in order to get to work on this transport. Parents can go cycling with their children, thus also playing sports in the fresh air.
The following figure on the topic of ecology of nature is symbolic. Under a bright rainbow, the child portrayed a representative of animals, birds, insects, plants and calls on everyone to preserve our nature.
The next work is intended for schoolchildren. To do it, you will need:
- a sheet of paper or whatman paper;
- simple pencil;
- eraser;
- paints.
First, on paper with a pencil, you need to outline the main elements of the canvas. If some did not work out right away, you can erase them with an eraser and redo them.
The picture is divided into 2 thematic parts. On the left there is a beautiful nature, a grazing horse, soaring birds in the blue sky, and on the right - industrial enterprises that carry out harmful emissions into the atmosphere and, as a result, dead trees, bushes, grass.
The next poster on the theme “Protect Nature” shows children how to protect the forest from fire.
If the child is asked to draw a picture on this topic, you can give him the following idea. There is a forest, a river, a rainbow, and animals.
If this drawing on the theme "Ecology of Nature" is intended for secondary schoolchildren, the next one can be reproduced by children from primary school and older groups of kindergarten. Show them how to draw cone-shaped tree crowns and a lush crown. Children will also be able to draw lilies of the valley and strawberries.
Another work was done in a very interesting technique. To do the same, take:
- a needle;
- colored threads;
- a sheet of white cardboard;
- simple pencil.
First, barely pressing a pencil, you need to draw a rainbow, below - the rays of the rising sun. In the center of the picture there are outstretched palms and the inscription “Take care of nature!”.
We start at the bottom of the canvas. Help your child pass the yellow thread through the eye of the needle, tie a knot at the two ends of the thread. The sun's rays can be made long or multi-stitch. Children will embroider a rainbow with threads of different colors, they will finish the work in the same technique.
The following canvases are based on comparison and contrast.
A corner of the globe is drawn on the right. Explain to the children that he will stay that way if we all protect nature. On the left it is shown what it will become if you litter, not worry about putting out a fire behind you or burning it in the wrong place. The pollution of water bodies will also lead to such sad consequences. The child will understand all this if he draws such a canvas.
Another work develops this idea and shows that people have the strength to resist atmospheric pollution, it is necessary to reduce the amount of exhaust gases, and to clean up trash after themselves.
The following drawing is also intended to instill in children the correct thoughts about ecology.
To let the guys know that you can make a lot of interesting things out of junk material, offer them the following ideas.
Garbage Crafts
Children love kinder surprises, so they almost always have packages from the gifts inside. Teach the children by showing what can be made from such waste material.
Wonderful funny chickens are the result. To make them, the kids will need:
- plastic containers for kinder eggs;
- glue;
- beads or pins;
- yellow and red cardboard;
- scissors.
You need to glue yellow wings and red paper combs to one plastic package, and attach bead eyes in the same way.
You can pierce the top of the kinder egg package with two pins. Then the beads remaining outside will become chicken eyes. To make the shell, have the parents cut the top of each half of the package in a zigzag pattern. It will be more difficult for children to do this. Together with them, make a nest from straw or dry grass, or from thin twigs, fastening the elements with thread or glue.
You can make such a picturesque bouquet out of garbage. To create it take:
- packages from under kinder eggs of different colors;
- scissors;
- sisal or green plastic bottles;
- cocktail tubes;
- nail.
Crafting workshop:
- Also cut the egg halves in a zigzag pattern. On the reverse side, use a heated nail to poke through the hole.
- Insert a straw into each, push the edge further away first to cut it into 2 pieces. Then tie them in a knot, then this "stem" will be firmly fixed in the flower.
- Arrange them all the same way. Connect the flowers, cover with sisal, tie with a ribbon.
- If there is no sisal, then the top and bottom of the green plastic bottle need to be cut off and the rest of the spirally cut into a thin strip.
For the following crafts on the topic, take care of nature, you will need:
- kinder egg packaging;
- toothpicks;
- scissors;
- plasticine;
- paints;
- thin colored rope;
- flat lid from a cardboard box;
- green colored paper;

Step-by-step manufacturing:
- Let the child glue colored paper inside the lid from the box, this is a carpet of green grass. Toothpicks must be pre-painted, when dry, stick along the edge of the box, like a palisade. These pickets are tied with rope in several rows to make a fence.
- Pierce the lower parts of the plastic blanks with an awl, let the child insert toothpicks here. He will coat them with black plasticine, from it he will make small circles, attach them to the body of a cow. Then you need to sculpt the horns, and from the yellow plasticine - the muzzle.
- In the same way, let the child create other animals: a pig, a cat, a dog, a sheep. Then you get a whole village farm, but you already know how to make chickens from kinders.
The following crafts, take care of nature, are no less interesting to perform. After all, after the feast, the holiday, plastic cups, disposable plates remain. Make such a clown from them together with the children.

- Two trays will be the back and front of the clown. Decorate his clothes with buttons, sequins, cardboard, which will turn into a jacket collar.
- Stuff the gloves with padding polyester, attach them in place. This is how the theme of the ecology of nature began to play. After all, this garbage will not harm her if you make such crafts for a summer residence or for a competition.
And an empty container from the "Dressing Duck" or other household chemicals will easily become a toy bus. And another bottle by helicopter.
To make the first toy, you need to take an empty plastic bottle of a similar shape, for example, from a "toilet duck", rinse it well, remove the label. Draw the windows and doors of this minibus with a felt-tip pen, cut them out with a knife and scissors.
To prevent the child from getting hurt on the sharp edges of the plastic, sand them first with coarse, then fine sandpaper. The covers can be glued with super glue by making wheels or using wire axles. Make two punctures with an awl on the same and the same number on the other side of the bottom of the bottle. Insert one and the second wire into them, on the ends of which you need to glue on the lid, which will become the axes.
And to make a helicopter, you will need:
- 2 bottles of drinking yogurt;
- glue;
- 2 plastic bottle caps;
- cocktail straws;
- 2 nails;

The first bottle of drinking yogurt will be the main one. You can just draw a booth on its bottom, or cut off the bottom and glue here half of the plastic packaging from the kinder egg.
Make the runners from two straws, attach them to the strips of plastic cut from the second bottle.
Use a hot thin nail with a wide head to make a hole in the lid and the place where it is attached, as well as at the ends of the straws. Match these parts to create the top propeller. In the tail section, make it out of straws.
If you need to quickly make a craft about the ecology of nature, use plastic bottles. Tell your child that those who throw them in the forest are damaging the environment. After all, such a container will rot only after 200 years! It is better to make a craft out of it for the competition. It will take very little time and materials to make the next one, here are the ones:
- milk bottle;
- plasticine;
- 2 buttons;
- black and white cardboard;
