Childhood is the time of games in which the child learns everything he needs in life. Children are very fond of toys that are very similar to real "adult" objects. At the same time, the child wants to be the master of the situation, to control this object, like a real magician. That is why kids just need models of buildings, ships, planes, railways. The layout can be made with your own hands, materials for this can always be found at home or in the country. You can make, for example, a layout of your summer cottage.
It is necessary
- Plywood
- Styrofoam
- Universal adhesive
- Paints
- Photos or drawings of the country house and buildings on the site
- Sharp knife
- Jigsaw
Instructions
Step 1
Saw a piece out of a sheet of plywood that matches the shape of your summer cottage. In terms of size, you can make it a little larger than the layout will be. Mark the places of the main buildings - a country house, a barn, a playground. Mark the location of the pond, vegetable patch, and garden. Paint parts of the site in the appropriate colors - gray-blue pond, black beds, green lawn.
Step 2
Make a country house out of polystyrene. It is necessary to at least approximately observe the scale, otherwise you simply will not fit what is on the site in fact. The house can be made from cardboard or plywood, it just will take longer. Cut a parallelepiped out of the foam that matches the shape of the house It can be painted, or it can be pasted over with colored paper or colored self-adhesive film, depending on what kind of house you want. Paste or paint windows and doors. The porch can be made from pieces of styrofoam by gluing them on top of each other with a "ladder". If your roof is straight, you can make it out of a piece of plywood. Cut the roof with slopes from a piece of foam, paint or paste over and glue to the house. After that, glue the entire house onto its designated area.
Step 3
Make a barn and other buildings in the same way. Glue them to the base and make the beds. They are small blocks of foam, painted black. Try to keep as many beds as there are on the site. Glue the beds to the base, and you have already painted the paths between them.
Step 4
Plant a garden. Trees can be made from cardboard. Fold a piece of green cardboard in half and draw the silhouette of a tree along with the trunk. At the bottom of the trunk, draw a semicircle so that the base of the trunk is the diameter of that semicircle. Cut out the tree. Paint over the barrel with brown paint or stick a brown strip of paper on it. Glue the halves of the wood together, leaving the semicircles unsticked. Let the wood dry and fold the semicircles outward. Make some trees this way. They can be simply put on the base, or they can be glued where the garden will be.
Step 5
For a playground or playground, make a football goal or a sandbox. For this, for example, matchboxes are suitable, which must be pasted over or painted and attached to the appropriate place. For a sandbox, a larger box may also work. Just stick it upside down on the base of the model.
Step 6
Finish the job by building a fence. It can be made from pieces of styrofoam, wooden planks or cardboard strips, depending on what kind of fence you have at your dacha. After the layout is ready, play it with your child.
