Preschoolers of the older group continue to be taught the skills of the artistic embodiment of the world around them, a fairy tale or literary plot, developing compositional skills, improving the methods of conveying the characteristic features of the shape, color and details of an object. Drawing the houses of their favorite fairy tale characters by children helps to develop the skills of a competent spatial arrangement of parts of an object, drawing details and filling in the background, and teaches the correct transfer of proportions and sizes of an object. In addition, the topic improves the technical skills of translating an artistic concept into a drawing, broadens the child's horizons, enriches the inner world, teaches how to convey one's impressions, aesthetic experiences, awakens an inner interest in visual activity.
Techniques and techniques that are used within the framework of the theme "Fairytale houses"
The fairy tale plot immerses the child in an amazing mysterious world of fantasy and folk wisdom, the fates of the characters of the beloved fairy tales remain in memory for a long time. Together with the main character, the children save the princess, go in search of wonderful objects, overcome insidious obstacles on the way to their cherished goal. Traveling through the fairyland, you can visit the castle of the good fairy or the clearing of the enchanted forest in front of the hut of Baba Yaga, escape from the wolf in a reliable house of three little pigs. Fanciful fairy-tale houses become hallmarks of each story, full-fledged heroes, without whom the image of a fairy-tale episode becomes empty and lifeless, loses the charm of magic.
Classic techniques:
- Drawing with simple and colored pencils.
- Drawing with wax crayons.
- Drawing with felt-tip pens.
- Combined method (colored pencils and watercolor, felt-tip pens or wax crayons)
- Drawing with a brush using gouache - a feature of this material is its opacity, which allows you to overlap layers with a new color. Thanks to this ability, gouache is a very popular material for decorating decorative details.
- Brush painting with watercolors. Children continue to be taught how to competently set paint on a brush and mix to get the right color shade.

Unconventional Techniques
- Finger drawing - older preschoolers independently come up with options for using finger painting in combination with classical techniques.
- Handprint - older preschoolers apply paint on the palm with a brush and make an impression on their own, then draw the contours and details of the object.
- Drawing with rock salt, cereals by filling in the silhouette, previously smeared with glue or sprinkling the outline of the object smeared with glue.
- Showing drawing - the contours of the object are drawn with wax crayons or a candle on a clean sheet of paper, then the top layer is applied with watercolors of one or more colors.
- Stamping - the image of objects by applying an imprint on paper using a stamp and a stencil (foam swab, wooden blocks, from vegetables, fruits, waste material, etc.).
- Grattage - scratching the outlines of a pattern on a surface primed with wax or paints.
- Thread printing is the creation of an image from whole and finely cut threads using glue.
- Monotype - a mirror image transfer from the base (cellophane, plastic surface, foil) to a sheet of paper.

Drawing techniques in the senior group
Older preschoolers are working hard to improve their drawing techniques with pencils, crayons and felt-tip pens, since hatching strengthens the muscles of the hand, develops fine motor skills and the eye, and therefore helps prepare children for writing.
- Line - can be of different configurations (straight, wavy, spiral, broken, etc.) and helps to depict the contour, conveying the shape of the object, its size and proportional ratio of parts.
- Hatching is the simplest and most effective way of rendering colors and drawing the texture of an object. A stroke is not only the most popular and affordable way to depict an object, but also an excellent simulator for developing fine motor skills and coordination of movements. Hatching types:
- Chaotic - strokes fall in a free direction, then are finalized by additional contour drawing of the object's silhouette.
- Vertical - dense strokes are applied in a vertical direction. Adjusting the pressure force will allow you to achieve a smooth change in a variety of color shades.
- Diagonal - most in demand for sketching the silhouette of an object or background.
- Horizontal is a rather difficult technique, from the point of view of technical execution, since it requires the child to constantly change the position of the hand in the process of drawing.
- Shaping - a complex and time-consuming version of drawing the shape of an object, for example, the sun, a flower or a cloud.
- Feathering helps to achieve different color depths depending on the degree of pencil pressure. A brighter and more contrasting contour can be conveyed with the help of strong pressure, while the color intensity of the silhouette of an object or background image will be much softer.
- Dot, rhythmic stroke, dabbing with a brush in the technique of drawing with watercolors and gouache paints.
Lesson summary
In the senior group, the program provides for one drawing lesson per week. According to sanitary standards, the duration of continuous independent work of children should not exceed twenty to twenty-five minutes. To activate the attention and thinking of kids, methodologists and psychologists recommend conducting outdoor games, physical exercises that will help relieve psychological clamps, mental fatigue, physical stress from a static body position in a monotonous position. Finger gymnastics, which helps to relax the muscles of the hand, will also be useful and effective.
Lesson scheme
- Organizational part (3-5 minutes) - reading a fairy tale, riddles, poems, demonstration of pictures, presentations, educational film or cartoon. The information stage is necessary to stimulate children's interest in a fairy tale plot, to study the features of the construction of the subject of the image. It is important to use surprise moments, elements of a theatrical or didactic game that arouse curiosity, cognitive activity and create a favorable creative atmosphere.
- Practical part - the educator explains the sequence of creating a composition and drawing an object based on a diagram (3-5 minutes). Six-year-old children are already familiar with most of the techniques, so they are more free to implement the artistic concept. Demonstration of a picture or a sample should not be used for literal reproduction, but only to clarify and consolidate the correct understanding of the sequence and methods of performing the task. The work is done based on technological maps, samples or on the basis of the free design of children. Palace drawing algorithm:
- In the center, draw the main rectangle, the main entrance will be located in it.
- Draw small extensions on the sides.
- Draw tall towers along the edges of the image. At the top of the sheet, leave a place for drawing roofs.
- Draw roofs of various shapes.
- Decorate the tops of observation towers.
- Draw the main gate.
- Draw the shape of the windows, suitable for the shape of the doors.
- Finish the decorative details that adorn the facade of the building.
- Independent work of children (15–20 minutes). The teacher helps children who experience difficulties in the process of drawing, but does not complete the task for them.
- The final part is the analysis and evaluation by the children of their works and drawings of their comrades. Children are taught to reasonably formulate their point of view and verbally express the aesthetic perception of creative works (3-5 minutes).

Samples and a step-by-step description of the order of work
The theme "Fairy-tale houses" (terem, hut, palace, castle, houses of fairy-tale heroes) is being worked out both in the format of separate drawing classes, and as part of short-term and long-term projects ("Russian folk tales", "Tales of A. S. Pushkin" , "Tales of the peoples of the world", "Tales of G. H. Andersen", etc.).
"Royal Castle" - a collective work in the technique of stamping
Large compositions, which consist of many parts, details and objects, are usually created with the help of a collective effort. The preparatory stage, during which the background is painted over, individual elements are drawn, detailing is worked out, implemented in subgroups or individually, and then the children together make up a whole image on the basis, gluing the individual parts of the object prepared by them, or silhouettes of the composition, along the way developing the ability of spatial thinking, acquiring concerted experience. In the process of collective creativity, children are guided by a given algorithm or a free plan, improving the social skill of coordinating common actions, as well as the personal qualities of mutual understanding and cooperation.
It is important to form in children an understanding of the correct algorithm of actions during the creation of a collective composition:
"Castle against the backdrop of the Northern Lights" - drawing with felt-tip pens

Fairy-tale houses differ from our houses in that they can be funny and unusual, colorful, crooked, very small and huge, and sometimes even edible, or vice versa - poisonous. Let's try together draw a fairy house, in which gnomes could live, and also find out how to draw a Christmas gingerbread house. How do you like the idea? Like? Then let's go!
I have prepared for you several options for fabulous houses. One of them is in the video.
How to draw a gnome house step by step
You can also slightly indicate where the walls will end and the roof will begin.
2. Let's draw the walls and the roof. The most interesting thing in the process of creating a drawing of a fabulous house is that you can draw walls and a roof of any shape, the main thing is to fantasize as much as possible and make the house original.
3. If the main elements of the house are ready, it's time to take care of the windows and doors, because a fairy-tale house should not only be funny and original, but also serve as a cozy home for the gnomes. Windows and doors can also be of various shapes: curved, round, oval, square. In a word, fantasize!
4. Now you can go to the details. Let's mark the patterns on the roof, which will remind us of tiles, and draw brick walls.
5. Let's add a few more details to the drawing of the house: a chimney, as well as a flashlight, so that at night the gnomes would not be afraid to return home. And now let's draw background elements: bushes, trees, flowers, clouds.
6. Congratulations! Fairy house is ready! Color it with bright colors using pencils or paints. Color can make the drawing of the house even more fantastic and original.
How to draw a Christmas gingerbread house
1. First of all, let's think about placing the house on paper. We denote the extreme upper and lower points of the figure and combine them with a central line. It will help us keep the symmetry.
Also on the center line, mark where the walls will end and the roof will begin. For convenience, a horizontal line can be drawn through the marks.
2. This house will look a little more like the houses in which people live, so let's try to build it first from the geometric shapes we know. Rectangle - for walls, triangle - for the roof. Also note the doors and windows. Now this house has become like an ordinary one, but we will add fabulousness to it.
3. We will draw two caramel columns on the sides to the walls, we will make the roof in the form of glaze flowing onto a small window. Also at this stage we will draw in detail the windows and doors.
4. All the main elements are ready, let's move on to the sweet details? Decorate the drawing of the house as you like. For example, I decorated my house with garlands with various sweets. And from below for decoration I added caramel stones.
At this stage, you also need to finish the background elements. Our house is Christmas, so the background should be winter: snow, Christmas tree and the like.
5. Congratulations! Sweet Christmas house is ready! Color it in with crayons or paints as you wish. Success in creative work!
