How to make interesting crafts from vegetables and fruits with your own hands for school and garden with instructions and photos.

Making Fun Vegetable and Fruit Crafts– a great educational activity for children in preschool or primary school, which they can make with their own hands. Using carrots, cucumbers, apples and potatoes in the presented master classes, you will create a giraffe, a crocodile, a pig and a bear cub. Your child, just like you, will find it easy to learn thanks to the illustrations and step-by-step instructions. Craft one - a crocodile made of carrots and cucumbers. If you want to create an interesting craft from vegetables, then it is advisable not to choose too complex figures, and the craft itself should be similar to a fairy tale or cartoon character familiar to children. Avoid using unfamiliar and hard-to-find materials. In our case, you will only need: • three cucumbers (two medium-sized with slight bends, and one smaller than the two previous ones and more rounded); • carrots; • cutting board (for convenience); • tomato; • olives.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №1Before working with vegetables, they should be prepared.Despite the fact that only three cucumbers are used in the craft, it is advisable to take them with a reserve, so that in case of a defective part there is something to replace the failed part. Each vegetable should be thoroughly washed and dried, or wiped. Description of the procedure. 1. Cut off one edge of the smallest cucumber. On its back side, make a deep cut and cut out a triangular piece in the core. Next, prepare a piece of a larger cucumber, which will be used as the head. It is preferable to take a cucumber of a darker tone for this.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo # 22. Cut out the cap from the top of the carrot. You can also work on creating an airy scarf, but for this, choose a longer carrot than in the illustration.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Picture №33. We fix the crocodile’s head with a toothpick, and now it’s starting to take on the appropriate shape.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №44. Light cucumber trimmings after cutting will be used for circles for eyes. It is better to make pupils from olives, although currants (black) will also do.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №55. The eyes are carefully attached to the head using pieces of toothpicks. A strip of tomato is placed in the crocodile's mouth.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №66. The largest cucumber has both ends cut off. The trimmings are used to make two pairs of legs as shown in the illustration. The pair of front legs is made slightly smaller.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №77. Taking the cucumber core and making a rectangle out of it, we make cuts imitating an accordion (see illustration).We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №88.Using toothpick pieces, attach the musical instrument and the top pair of paws to the body. Using a whole toothpick, attach the head to the body. Next, cut out the tail (scraps will do) and place it on a plate along with the two lower paws. Fixing these elements to the body is not at all necessary, but they can be attached if desired. This completes the work on making a DIY cucumber craft!We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo Number 9Craft number two - a bear cub and a barrel of honeyfrom potatoes. It is difficult to find a more convenient material than potatoes. Having decided to make some kind of toy from this base, do not use tubers without preliminary short boiling. Short boiling will help the potatoes not to darken and to retain an attractive appearance. A properly boiled tuber will easily pierce and cut, will hold its shape, and will serve as an inexpensive base for any craft. The necessary set of materials and tools: • two olives; • a sharp knife; • carrots (one small disk); • a dozen toothpicks; • processed cheese (piece); • three small potatoes one medium (not young).We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo Number 11Always choose the largest tuber onthe body and the roundest for the head. Before work, the vegetables are washed, and the potatoes are also boiled. It is important that after boiling the potatoes remain moderately hard, but have the shade of a boiled vegetable. Progress. 1. Take one small potato and make paired elements for the paws in accordance with the illustration. It is important to make the lower limbs flat, so that they provide stability for the entire craft. 2. Cut the second small tuber in half, and make a small recess inside the half, into which a carrot disk is inserted. It imitates a pot of honey in our craft.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits.

Craft number three – “carrot” giraffe.

Carrots, which serve as the main ingredient herematerial, gives the craft a bright color. It will be interesting to make it not only for children from kindergarten, but also for younger students. Before starting work, wash the carrots. Remove the olives from the brine. Dry everything thoroughly. The carrots should be peeled.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo Number 19The process of making “carrot”giraffe. 1. Take a large carrot and cut off a piece from the wide edge. Slightly round off the shape of the giraffe's body in accordance with the illustration. 2. Two thinner carrots will be used to make four oblong pieces of equal thickness. 3. In order to make the above pieces, we recommend using a vegetable peeler. This is especially important since our craft is intended for a preschool institution, which means safety is above all else.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo number 204.The remaining pieces of a large carrot are used to cut out two parts: the head and the neck (see illustration). The neck is made thinner so that the size of the figure is proportional. 5. Using two toothpicks broken in half, attach the paws to the body.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo Number 216.The head is also attached to the neck using a piece of toothpick. After that, the entire structure is put on the body using a long toothpick. 7. Take olives and cut out thin circles for elements of various shapes. The number of such details depends only on your desire.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo Number 228. The olive pieces need to be glued to the giraffe, but before that they need to be dipped in the marinade they were stored in. It is absolutely necessary to make eyes and nostrils for the giraffe.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo # 23Carrot trimmings are useful for makingears. If you want the craft to be easier, simply apply the black spots with a marker. Of course, such a giraffe is not suitable for consumption. 9. Carefully insert two matches into the giraffe's head, gray side up, to make its horns. We also recommend making a small cut for the mouth with a knife and inserting greenery there. You need to attach the tail at the back, and the craft can be considered finished!We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo # 24Try not to move the giraffe withoutneed, otherwise it may lose its shape. Craft number four - a piglet made of apples. Making this craft is not particularly difficult. It is very convenient to work with this fruit due to the presence of a dense skin and a smooth surface. The appearance of the piglet will largely be determined by the type of apples. In this master class, we used the following tools and materials: knife processed cheese (optional) two small and one larger apple a dozen toothpicks an olive.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №25As per tradition, wash the apples and dry them well.When choosing apples, pay attention to their smoothness and uniformity, the absence of flaws and natural defects. We recommend the Goden variety, but you can experiment with other varieties. 1. Choose a large apple and pierce it diagonally from the stalk with 3-4 toothpicks (see illustration). Subsequently, the stalk is hidden under the piglet's head so that it does not spoil our product.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №262.After this, two apples are connected: the head with the piglet's body. 3. The third apple will serve as the basis for the hooves. To do this, cut four wide bars of approximately equal size. If the parts are too thin, the figure will lose stability.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №274.The hooves are attached with toothpicks (or halves). Here you should focus on the ripeness of the apples. If you use too soft and ripe fruits, you need to pierce them with whole toothpicks. Do not forget that the body will have more mass than the legs.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №285.Use the remains of the 3rd apple to cut out two ears and one circle for the snout. 6. The olive will serve as material for the snout (you need to cut out two small circles) and two arches for the eyes. Here it would not be superfluous to use processed cheese to make round eyes and pupils. If the craft was conceived for a preschool institution, then simplify the work and do as shown in the illustration.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Photo №297. Attach the cut-out snout to the muzzle with a toothpick.We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits. Picture №308. The eyes and mouth are made with cuts in which the olive parts are fixed. We decorate the craft with a tail and it is ready!We create interesting and delicious handicrafts from vegetables and fruits.
