The best toy for a child is that,which you make with your own hands, putting all your soul into it. And it is even better if the child receives such a gift, which will contribute to its development. Such a surprise can be a developing cube, which will not only bring pleasure to your baby, but also help develop fine motor skills, attention and assiduity. For a mother, making such a toy will be an excellent opportunity to develop her creative talents. And imagine how many positive emotions you can give to your beloved crumb. And before you get to work, cookthe right tools: thick paper, needles of various diameters, scissors, colored markers and a pencil. From the materials we need a cotton cloth and a dense felt of different colors, skin trimming, foam rubber, cotton wool, various ribbons (rainbow colors), sewing threads of different colors and buttons of different tones for decorating the Christmas tree, flowers and a frog. Now that everything is ready, we will begin to manufacture. Make a pattern of a cube of 6 squares measuring 17 cm. They need to be cut according to this scheme.
Now let's start decorating the top orangesquare. Make a tree trunk of black leather, and the leaves are made of green felt. Inside is an owl that can be made of brown felt. Make a bush of green fabric and sew a snail to it.
In order to decorate one of the red faces, it is necessary in advanceprepare 5 loops and 4 hooks. As you can see, mushrooms and acorns are not the same size. They are removable and placed in a basket of felt, which is located on the side. An eyelet is attached to each detachable part, due to which the mushrooms are hung on hooks. The basket is connected using a red ribbon.
Another fringe is sewn on a frog made of felt. The mouth is decorated with a zipper, inside which is hidden a long red tongue. Eyes can be made from felt and buttons.
Other orange side is decorated with bluea cloud, which is fastened to the edge with the help of Velcro. A little below there is a lake and flowers made of felt. Details of clouds and flowers are filled with cotton for a larger volume. Flowers can be decorated with buttons and ribbons. It will not be superfluous to have a decorative ladybird located on a flower, and a button in the form of a duck that needs to be sewn to the lake.
Now proceed to decorating the white faces. On one of them it is necessary to sew a fur-tree from felt and to decorate with buttons. Of felt also should be made and a snowman. It can be either sewn, or attached to buttons or Velcro. The broom is made of a dry twig and string, imitating straws. Make a snowman a nose out of felt, but sew it so that you can pull it off.
We will make the other white face like the sky. In one corner you need to sew a pocket of blue felt in the form of a cloud. Additionally, you can sew a rainbow from colored ribbons. Make a separate sun of yellow felt, stuffing it with cotton. Insert the cord diagonally. On the one hand, it is stretched through the loop from the ribbon, and on the other - through the hole in the pocket. On it and the sun will move by pulling a string.
After all the faces are ready, the cubeshould be sewn from the wrong side. Do not stitch one side. Turn out our cube through it and fill it with foam rubber. To make the cube look more accurate, foam should be cut into squares of the appropriate size and folded in the form of a cube. And in conclusion, you need to sew the last side from the front side with a hidden seam. Now our toy is completely ready. As you can see, for sewing it does not need to use a sewing machine, everything is done by hand. Deliver your child a sea of joy in such a simple way.
