We draw with children with palms. How to teach a child to draw? Drawing with fingers and palms

Drawing is one of the favorite activities of preschoolers, which takes them into the world of bright and amazing images. And if the teacher also offers unusual ways for this, then the kids are simply delighted. Great positive emotions in children of all ages are caused by drawing with their palms. This technique develops fine motor skills, color perception, stimulates sensory sensations.

Features of the organization of classes in drawing with palms in kindergarten. The specifics of work in different groups, the level of complexity of compositions

Hand painting is a very simple technique: a child dips his hands in paint or paints them with a brush, and then leaves an imprint on a paper sheet. This exciting process is similar to a fun game - children are liberated and reveal their creative possibilities.

In addition, when drawing with palms, a large number of nerve endings that are located on these parts of the body are involved. This leads to the activation of the cerebral cortex, and, as a result, the development of mental processes. This drawing technique is also a good reflex massage: after all, on the palms there are points associated with various organs.

When organizing classes on “palm” painting, the teacher must follow the principle “from simple to complex”. You can start such experiments with paint already in the first junior group. Two-year-olds do not yet know how to handle a brush, and palm painting is the best way for them to draw. This technique gives children the opportunity for direct contact with the paint, while developing fine motor skills and, as a result, speech and intelligence.

Toddler preschoolers receive abstract images using a palm print. At this age, the goal is not to create any specific image - the kids are fascinated by the process itself, they enjoy the bright color, the interaction with the paint.

Two-year-olds are happy to draw with their palms

In addition, "palm" painting calms a small child, gives him positive emotions. This is especially important during the adaptation period - the baby is distracted, calms down, forgets about his mother. In addition, such activities are useful in that they give children the opportunity to feel their importance and independence.

Hand painting continues in the second younger group, especially since some children start attending kindergarten only from the age of three. Classes here are already moving to a more complex level: with the help of a teacher, a child draws a handprint with simple details, creating an image of some simple object - a sun, a fish, a flower. At this age, preschoolers can already be offered collective work in this non-traditional technique: each child leaves an imprint - as a result, some kind of image is obtained (the sun or a tree with leaves).

In the middle group, drawing on the basis of "palm" painting becomes even more complicated, the images become more detailed. A child, for example, can already depict a dinosaur or a dragon in this way, supplementing the print with characteristic elements: a crest, paws, an intricate tail.

By the older preschool age, children, as a rule, are fluent in the technique of drawing with their hands and can create wonderful works. Five-year-old children can independently come up with a theme for a drawing, skillfully using the acquired skills and abilities. Compositions are increasingly of a plot nature, for example, a horse grazing in a meadow or wild animals roaming the African savannah. Note that all the images are carefully drawn, convey the characteristic features of objects or objects.

Collective work of pupils of the senior group

Drawing of a pupil of the preparatory group

In the senior and preparatory groups, preschoolers can no longer dip their pens into the paint, but apply it on their own with a brush. This method allows you to make the print not monochrome, but multi-colored: after all, fingers can be painted in different colors.

Children of senior preschool age apply paint on their palms with a brush

Materials used and basis, hygienic moment

In the younger and middle group, gouache paint is used for “palm” painting, it is slightly diluted with water and poured into a flat saucer so that it is easy for the baby to put his palm there.

Note that water-based finger paints are a good alternative to gouache: they are well washed off from the body and clothes, and besides, they will not do harm if the child decides to taste them. Finger paints do not spread, so the baby can easily apply them to his palm.

Great alternative to gouache

At older preschool age, children can also be offered watercolors for painting with their palms, since they themselves apply paint to their palms with a brush.

Original works are obtained by combining materials. For example, a child depicts a key image with paint, and the background is completed with a pencil.

Drawing with watercolors and pencils

Applicative and plasticine elements can also be successfully included in the composition. For example, multi-colored prints applied to a blue background easily turn into jellyfish. The image will only need to be supplemented with eyes and fancy algae. The composition can be made more original by gluing voluminous eyes, and algae can also be made embossed with the help of applicative elements (rings of dry breakfast).

Drawing with appliqué elements

Another example - with the help of the palms, the prickly back of a hedgehog is depicted, and the rest of its body is made out with the help of appliqués from lumps of napkins.

Combination of drawing and application

With the help of plasticine, you can beautifully decorate the eyes and paws of birds.

Plasticine elements are organically included in the watercolor drawing.

As for the basis for the image, then, as a rule, the teacher offers the children paper in the traditional A4 format. However, occasionally non-standard materials, such as fabric, can also be used for this purpose. This may be a motley multi-colored material, but in which the child leaves an imprint in some saturated color (for example, black, brown or dark blue). Another unusual option is drawing on plastic (finger paints should be offered to preschoolers for this purpose).

During the lesson on drawing with palms, the teacher pays special attention to the hygienic moment: in the workplace, children must have napkins (wet can be) with which the child wipes his hands before going to wash them.

Drawing techniques used in different groups: basic technique and drawing details

Hand drawing does not require preschoolers to master any complex technique. In the younger and middle groups, kids simply dip the brush into the paint and leave an imprint on paper. When adding details to the image, the technique of working with a brush is already improving: the elements, as a rule, are drawn with the tip, while the tool is located almost vertically in relation to the paper.

Note that children draw with both their right and left hands (for example, a butterfly can only be depicted with prints of two palms at once).

When supplementing the main image with details, finger drawing is often used in the younger group (for example, in this way you can mark the eye of a fish or pebbles next to it on the seabed). At an older age, cotton swabs can be offered for such purposes. In addition, "palm" painting can be combined with a print.

The drawing successfully combines various non-traditional techniques - drawing with palms, fingers and print

Pupils of the middle group are already learning to place the image in the center of the sheet, for example, it will be a bird sitting on a tree branch. In addition, they understand that if you press your palm harder on the paper, the drawing will turn out brighter.

Depending on the conceived image, children must change the location of the fingers on the hand. For example, to depict a fish, the thumb must be pressed against the palm of your hand. If a tree, the sun, a butterfly are drawn, then all the fingers, on the contrary, are spread out. A realistic elephant will turn out if the thumb sticks out as much as possible from the rest.

In addition, the teacher explains to the pupils of the middle group that the palm must be rotated in a certain way when imprinting. For example, when drawing animals, the fingers should point down, as they will depict the paws of the beast.

When creating the image of an animal, the palm is usually placed with the fingers down.

From the age of five (older group), preschoolers already paint their palms with a brush on their own. At the same time, the teacher draws the attention of the children that the paint should be applied in an even layer, not too thick, but without leaving empty spaces - the quality of the drawing depends on this. Each finger can be painted in its own color, while remembering to wash the brush in a timely manner.

Note that the choice of color, along with well-drawn details, is of key importance when drawing with palms. Let's give some examples. The imprint of a red-yellow hand can easily turn into a fire, you just need to supplement the image with two stripes of brown (using wide strokes with the entire bristle of the brush).

And a black print can become an original Batman mask - all you have to do is paint the recognizable details with the tip of the brush.

From several two-color contours of the palms, a funny centipede will turn out. And in order to depict her head with horns, you need to raise your middle and ring fingers when typing.

By applying paint on the palms unevenly, with pale green spots, we get charming turtles with their characteristic heterogeneous color.

A white print on a green background is an almost finished image of a zebra, all that remains is to color it with white stripes with the tip of a brush and finish the graceful tail.

Card file of topics for different groups, including collective compositions

Here is a sample list of topics for each age group that can be used when teaching preschoolers to draw with their hands:

Junior group:

• "Colored palms" (children learn to make prints with their palms on paper).
• "Octopussy"
• "Golden Sun" (collective work).
• "Leaf fall" (collective work).
• "Flower for Mom"
• "My gloves"
• "Two merry geese lived with granny".
• "Grass".

Middle group:

• "Beauty Butterfly".
• "Titmouse" (as an option - "Bullfinch", "Sparrow", "Swans").
• "Snake Gorynych" (as an option - "Dragon", "Dinosaur").
• "Spring" (with the help of the palms, grass with flowers is depicted).

Senior group:

• "Underwater World" (as an option - "Aquarium").
• "Beautiful bouquet".
• "Butterfly in the Meadow"
• "Fairy bird".
• "Colorful cockerel".
• "Elephant".
• "Fairytale Forest" (as an option - "Old Stump in the Forest").
• "Forest is our wealth" (as an option - "Magic Forest") (collective work).

Preparatory group:

• "Crow".
• "Hedgehog".
• "Cactus".
• "Horse in the Meadow"
• "Mysterious Underwater World"
• "Dog".
• "Flowers in a vase".
• "Peacock".
• "Crow".
• "Let there always be peace" (poster with the image of birds on the background of nature) (teamwork)

Note that many topics are offered to children of different ages, for example, drawing a butterfly, fish, bird, flower. However, each group has its own level of difficulty.

For example, if children of the early preschool level simply supplement the butterfly with the necessary details (eyes, antennae), then at an older age the image becomes more detailed: the image of an insect printed with the help of palms is decorated with intricate patterns, interesting contrasting colors are selected. Similarly, the fish in the second younger group will simply be supplemented with eyes, and later the guys draw the whole underwater world on the basis of such an image, the marine inhabitants will differ from each other in color, scale pattern.

Lesson notes

Examples of drawings of preschoolers in an unconventional technique of drawing with palms with comments on the performance of the work

Photo gallery "Works of pupils of the first junior group"

In the first junior group, kids just practice “palm” painting, creating abstract images. To get any specific image, the teacher directs the child's hands and completes the image with the necessary details - in this regard, the composition "Spider" is indicative. At this age, children are often offered collective work, where again the teacher plays the leading role. For example, he draws the central part of the sun with eyes, a smile and a wreath, and the kids use their palms to depict its rays (“Golden Sun”). Another option - the teacher marks the trunk of the tree, and the children supplement it with leaves from their palms or snow flakes. Also at this age, children are offered interpretations on a floral theme: they are invited to supplement the painted stem with buds from multi-colored palms (“Bouquet for Mom”, “A Flower for Beloved Mom”).

In the second younger group, preschoolers themselves create complete images, for example, draw a stem with leaves on their own and complement it with colorful buds using “palm” painting. Kids are able to draw a cockerel by drawing its characteristic features - a red comb, paws and a multi-colored tail. Often at this age, children draw a fish, complementing it with eyes and a characteristic background (blue water, algae, pebbles).

Pupils of the second younger group already, without the help of a teacher, draw a tree, passing its crown with the help of a palm (“Autumn tree” and the collective composition “Forest is our wealth”).

The drawing “Pink Elephant” is of interest: in the animal, although not drawn very proportionally, characteristic features are still visible: a trunk, large ears, a small tail.

In the middle group, we see works of a more complex level. The fish already have their own character, an intricate scale pattern. The drawing has a more complex composition: fish, for example, swim towards each other ("Funny fish").

Trees are depicted in an interesting way: the branches are not just covered with fingers: smaller elements extend from them, as a result, the image is elegant. In this regard, the work "Magic Forest" is indicative. Mysterious trees here are also complemented with applique details - squirrels sitting in a hollow. A positive mood comes from the drawing "Spring": with the help of the palms, flower stalks are drawn here, each of which is decorated with a beautiful bright yellow bud with a red core. Interesting cacti of an intricate shape are depicted with the help of “palm” painting in the composition “Giraffe in Africa”.

Pupils of the middle group are already quite good at depicting animals and birds, giving the image characteristic details. This is the "Giraffe" with its beautiful spotted coloration, horns and hooves, the titmouse with a yellow breast and ruffled feathers. Children successfully draw even the fabulous Serpent Gorynych (“Snake Gorynych”, “My Favorite Fairy Tale”).

Also at this age, collective work is practiced, for example, the fantasy composition “Falling Leaves and Starfall”, where yellow palms symbolize shooting stars.

More detailed subject compositions and complicated plots are created by pupils of the senior group. So, the giraffe, created with the help of palms, has a carefully drawn muzzle and tail with a brush at the end (“Giraffe”). A funny bird turned out in the drawing “Raven”: he spread his wings in a funny way, ruffling his feathers, red paws and a beak of the same color look bright and contrasting.

Images are increasingly subjective. So, the guys not only draw beautiful yellow flowers with the help of their palms, but also complement the composition with bees flying around them (“Bees pollinate flowers”). The crowns of southern palms are drawn with palms, between which a crocodile is resting against the backdrop of a bright orange sun. The composition "Swans - Wonderful Birds" is made in delicate pastel shades, where the sea and the sky slightly differ in tone, the oscillation of sea waves is conveyed in thin strokes. The swans themselves swim against the backdrop of seagulls soaring in the sky. The huge yellow sun also looks impressive here.

With the help of multi-colored palms, the bright “Fairytale Bird” is originally drawn against the background of a bright rainbow and large raindrops.

My kids are very fond of paint. And if we draw in an unusual way, then this simply delights them. We draw a lot palms. Hand drawing This is another way of depicting the world around us. Draw with children with palms I start at an early age. They still don't know how draw with a brush and palm or a finger is the best way for a small child. Toddler paint needs to be poured into a flat saucer so that the child can easily dip palms. From the age of 5 children palm can already paint with a brush. In such classes, children get acquainted with the properties of paints, with color, develop artistic taste, spatial imagination. In progress hand drawing there is a development of fine motor skills, sensory skills, color perception. By using palms you can create any abstraction, draw plot pictures. overturning palm in different ways,Can finish drawing different details and embody any ideas, enjoying the color.

I want to present to your attention the work of the children of the preparatory group hand drawn.

A handprint drawing is always a very surprising and interesting sight. Both children and adults really like to watch what the outlines of children's hands that are familiar to us sometimes turn into.

The very process of creating such a thing causes great delight in children.

When we draw with palms and hands, many sensitive endings that abound in this area are included in the work, so the child not only enjoys the lesson, but also activates many areas of the cerebral cortex, which contributes to its development.

A pink palm can turn into a strawberry or a piece of juicy;

and from several two-tone contours of the handles you will get a charming centipede.

A yellow and black print can be used when creating an appliqué.

From pale green palms you can get funny sea turtles - just complement them with a suitable background.

The pink footprint of a child's hand will become a very appetizing ice cream;

and prints of different colors can be used to create beautiful mermaid hair and tail.

A hand painted in a certain way can become the basis for the image of a stern sea pirate.

A gray palm print easily transforms into a smart dolphin.

Raspberry pens will complement the image of cancer well;

and a brown palm can turn into a real walrus.

A pink print with two bright hearts will become a butterfly;

and two brown footprints from the palm - a cat.

It is easy to turn a white print into a zebra by applying black stripes to it.

The green palm easily becomes a dinosaur.

Two yellow prints are the perfect base for a pair of swans.

From one blue print and a pair of green prints, you can get a field bell.

A white palm can easily transform into a family.

Each handprint drawing is not easy. It is also a memory of what the hands of a child who discovered for himself were like at that time.

Many children love to draw. But what if the baby is still small and cannot draw? There are many tricks with which you can create original works and crafts for children, even without any artistic skills. Both you and your child will get more than just pleasure from such activities. In these games, he will get acquainted with color, the properties of paints, he will develop artistic taste and spatial imagination, fantasy and diligence. And he will be imbued with respect for parents who know how to do such things! Here are paint games that will attract interest in drawing and help in the development of the baby.

1. Stamps with fingers

In his wonderful book "Ed Emberley's Complete Funprint Drawing Book", the author describes the technique of drawing with fingerprints. You will need different colors of paint, water, a sponge, paper and a felt-tip pen.
Applying several colors to the sponge with a shift, you can get a gradient of colors.

The lion is a more complicated figure, but not so much that your little one cannot cope with it.

With this technique you can draw funny faces

Animals

Flowers

Transport

With fingerprints, a little artist can color in coloring pictures. Only coloring pages should be large, without small details.

(PART 2)

2. Handprints and footprints

You can draw not only with your fingers, but also with your palms and even legs. These interesting works can be made from the prints of arms and legs, if you apply a little imagination.

3. More prints

Anything can be printed. For example, you can paint the wheels of a toy car with paint and drive it around on paper. An interesting print in the form of a rose is obtained from the remains of a head of Peking (Chinese) cabbage.

Using ordinary woolen threads, you can create very interesting surprise patterns. This technique is called threading. To do this, take a sheet of paper or cardboard, fold it in half. Dip the end of the woolen thread 10 cm into the gouache, then clamp the dyed thread between the folded paper and move it there. We remove the thread, unfold the paper and marvel together with the baby at the unusual combination of lines and strokes. You can simultaneously dye several threads in different colors and get a multi-color gibberish. Consider the resulting image together with the baby, think about what it looks like, give it a name. Maybe it's fireworks or a colored meadow, or just a good mood?

You can draw with soap bubbles! To do this, add paint or food coloring to any soap-foaming solution, swell more foam and lean paper on top of it.
From such paper you can make greeting cards to relatives and friends.


Now on sale there are play sets of stamps for children's creativity. Thanks to them, the kid can decorate a greeting card, supplement his drawing with the necessary elements. Playing with stamps, you can introduce your baby to such concepts as a logical sequence of characters (pattern) and symmetry. Contribute to the development of creative thinking sets with stamps in the form of geometric shapes, from which you can make various pictures. For example, a set of stamps "Tangram".

Drawing with palms, fingers and legs contributes to the development of fine motor skills of fingers, curiosity and interest of children in work. The image of objects helps children develop imagination, memory, helps the child to better understand the world around him. Besides It is very fun and interesting (to get dirty in the paint).

In the process of classes, kids learn to name and distinguish colors. The dots drawn with fingers can be raindrops, or they can be grains for chickens. A handprint can be a bullfinch, or it can turn into a wish-granting goldfish. All this contributes to the formation of artistic and figurative thinking.

Special finger paints are safe for children. They contain only natural ingredients.

When a child is still small, it is difficult for him to draw with brushes, felt-tip pens, and a pencil. Therefore, for babies, arms, legs, fingers are best suited. So, even at an early age, an adult, without much effort, will help the child develop a love for creativity, show the child new, non-traditional drawing techniques.

Drawing with fingers, palms, legs is a permitted game with dirt, which allows you to save the individual from aggression. Moreover, no one scolds for this game, but on the contrary, everyone admires it.

Drawing with finger paints is a preparatory stage for the transition to painting with a brush, it teaches you to feel the boundaries of the sheet, and has a positive effect on the development of figurative thinking.

I want to present to your attention the work of the children of the first junior group:

These are the very first masterpieces of children, finger painting:
