The teacher gives the children a riddle:

Fairy tale, funny
New Year holiday)
"Do you like New Year's Eve?
What do you like about him the most?
What is the main decoration of the New Year holiday? (Christmas tree)
How do you decorate a Christmas tree?
Today we have an exhibition of Christmas tree decorations and toys. These are the toys that decorate the Christmas tree these days, and such toys are produced by Christmas tree decoration factories. But Christmas trees were decorated with such toys before our grandmothers, when they were small. These toys are made of cardboard, paper, cotton wool, wire, fabric, wood. Here we see a fox on a sled, a bear skier, a crow, a hut on chicken legs and much more. These toys are not as bright as modern ones, but very interesting in content. Did you like them?
Look at the branches of the artificial Christmas tree! Do they look like the branches of a real Christmas tree? Branches are long, short, they have small branches. The longer the branch, the more small branches it has. The shorter, the less. We will draw Christmas tree branches and decorate them with toys.
Children sit two at a desk, one draws a long branch, the other a short one. One row draws a branch from left to right, the other from right to left. Children decorate the painted branches of the Christmas tree with toys.
Ready-made work is laid out by children with a teacher on a free table, picking up branches so that a Christmas tree is obtained. The middle can be glued with tape.
"Guys, look! We laid out the drawings, what did we get? What is missing from our Christmas tree? (Trunk) All together we draw a trunk. What else is missing from our Christmas tree? (tops)
The teacher attaches a pre-drawn crown.
“Now, to make our Christmas tree even more elegant, let's draw garlands, tinsel, beads. We got a big elegant Christmas tree. We will hang it in the corridor in front of the music hall to decorate the kindergarten for the New Year. All kindergarten children and their parents will admire the Christmas tree.”

Frost crackles at night
Pinches finches by the nose.
Trees lined up
Change forest outfit.
Hats, snow coats
On golden garlands.
Soon, soon the New Year.
Laughter, a round dance at the Christmas tree.
Santa Claus with a big bag
He walks through the forests.
The stars shine bright for him
He has gifts in a bag.
Mandarins, oranges
For the children of the country of Russia.
Waffles, apples, lemons
And millions of nuts.
Hurry New Year
The kids are waiting.
(M. Azariyants)
Guys, do you already have a New Year's mood? Are you waiting for the New Year?
Of course you are waiting! This is very cool, because it brings us joy, gifts, magic, congratulations from family and friends! But in order for the New Year holiday to turn out to be bright and cheerful, you need to prepare for it! For example, choose or make your own gifts for family and friends, it can be a holiday card or a New Year's drawing, a bright fairy-tale craft decorated with tinsel and sparkles, or a New Year's toy for the Christmas tree! A handmade gift is valued much higher than a gift bought in a store, because it is made from the heart, diligently, and we put our imagination and our New Year mood into it! Truth?
So, today we will try to give a drop of our New Year's mood to all teachers and children who study at our school! But how do we do it? It's very simple - we will draw bright, colorful New Year's drawings and decorate the New Year's Fairy Tale exhibition at school! But before we get to work, we need to remember what our Russian Santa Claus and the beautiful Snegurochka look like! Do you remember? After all, the New Year without them cannot be magical and joyful! A discussion arises, the children discuss the image of Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden.
Well done boys! But it's still better to see them clearly! Look at the screen! (Slide 2. The image of Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden).
- Guys, how can you characterize them? What clothes are Santa Claus and Snow Maiden wearing? What hairstyle do these characters have? How are their moods conveyed?
Well done boys! But after all, not only Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden can be depicted in the New Year's drawing! What else can you draw?
Of course, a decorated New Year's fluffy Christmas tree, gifts, a symbol of the year 2018 - a dog, various animals and birds, children and adults. Let's see how the artists depicted the New Year on their canvases! (slides 3, 4, 5). Photos of artists' works: "Before the holiday" and "New Year" Rybakova Irina; "New Year" Alexander Guryaev.
- How is the New Year depicted in the works of artists? How is the New Year mood conveyed?
Well done! The New Year's mood is conveyed through the color scheme of the picture, through the facial expressions of people's faces, their gestures, movements.
And now let's see some children's New Year's work! (slide 6).
- Children's works are distinguished by brightness, emotionality, joy, naivety! And what kind of work will we get with you! Let's try to portray the "New Year's Tale" and convey the festive mood! First you will need to make a sketch with a simple pencil, then work in color. The material can be chosen according to your desire - it can be gouache, watercolor, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, wax crayons. And the final stage is decorating the work with sparkles, tinsel, rain, you can use cotton wool to make voluminous snow! Let's get to work!
Practical work. Students draw drawings on the theme "New Year's Tale" on A3 format (the material is provided for the choice of children - gouache, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, wax crayons, watercolor). The teacher controls the work, advises, directs in the right direction, points out mistakes, demonstrates the best work of students. You can turn on New Year's music for mood (at the teacher's choice).

I don’t know about you, but my New Year’s mood appears already in November. And this is good. After all, by the New Year you need to do a lot: decorating the house, postcards, gifts ...Therefore, preparation should begin in advance!
And the question arises what to draw for new year to please your friends and loved ones?
We have collected 25 ideas for New Year's stories for you. Useful for postcards, wall newspapers, pictures for gifts. Choose the ones you like and draw with inspiration! And reference pictures will help to achieve the expected result :)
25 ideas what to draw for the New Year:
1. Christmas tree
New Year can be imagined without serpentine, sparklers, even tangerines, but if there is no festively cleaned Christmas tree, consider that the holiday did not take place!
Drawing a Christmas tree is very easy! In this case, you can use the simplest images that even children can do.
2. Santa Claus
And what is the New Year without Santa Claus?
Red nose, rosy cheeks, beard, and most importantly - a red sheepskin coat and a bag of gifts!
3. Snowflakes
Do not expect snowfalls and blizzards - you can draw beautiful snowflakes!
Is it difficult to come up with an openwork pattern? Then find on the net a few options you like for the queries “paper snowflakes” or “snowflake templates” 🙂
4. Snowman
The snowman is a fairly popular character in New Year's and winter scenes.
And drawing it is quite simple: a couple of round ones, a nose with a carrot, twig handles, and all other attributes are a flight of your imagination!
Can't draw people? The snowman will completely replace them! Can do everything like a human: give gifts, skate, laugh and dance.
? MK in pictures!
The history of the creation of the first snowman, according to an old legend, takes us back to 1493. It was then that Michelangelo Buonarotti, a sculptor, poet and architect, made the first snow figure. But the first written mention of a beautiful huge snowman is found in one of the books of the 18th century. The 19th century was marked by a “thaw” in the relationship between man and snowmen. These winter beauties become good heroes of holiday fairy tales, integral attributes of New Year's cards.
5. New Year (Christmas) wreath
Decorating the house with a Christmas and New Year wreath is a very beautiful custom that came to us from Western countries. Christmas wreaths have become a popular interior decoration in recent years.
“Weave” hand-drawn New Year’s wreaths from fir branches or holly, add red “Christmas star” flowers, fruits, ribbons, beads, Christmas decorations. In composing compositions, there is room for fantasy to roam.
By the way, you can decorate a wreath not only with the usual New Year decorations, but also with everything that your imagination can tell you. For example - dried flowers, cones, berries, fruits, vegetables, cinnamon sticks, spices, citrus peel cut in a spiral, cayenne pepper, tangerines, apples, flowers, sweets, sweets, Christmas cookies.

6. Socks for gifts
Do you know where the tradition of hanging socks on fireplaces for gifts came from?
According to legend, the poor man was worried that his daughters would not marry because he did not have a dowry for them.
Saint Nicholas, learning about their plight, wanted to help them. On Christmas Eve, after the girls had hung their stockings on the fireplace to dry, he threw some gold coins into the house's smoker. The coins landed in the stockings and filled them up.
As word of this spread, other people began to hang stockings in the hope that they would receive gifts.

Hello, hello New Year!
Guys, who came up with this fun holiday and where did it come from? In ancient times, our ancestors celebrated it on March 1. People lit the lights on the Christmas trees in the form of candles, with the hope of a good harvest in the new year. When the people adopted the Christian faith, the holiday was moved to the first day of autumn - September. And only in 1700, by decree of Tsar Peter I, it was customary to celebrate the New Year on January 1.
What New Year traditions of our people do you know about? The main tradition is the decoration of the Christmas tree. This green beauty is dressed up with balls, garlands, luminous lanterns, cones, sweets, toys. The tree is a symbol of the New Year holiday. Another tradition is to fireworks at 12 o'clock at night, it is at this time that everyone wishes each other happiness in the new year. It is also customary to celebrate this holiday with your family. Adults and children put on beautiful clothes and carnival masks and have fun near the elegant Christmas tree. They sing songs, dance, play games and eat delicious meals at the table.
And who can tell how the New Year is celebrated in other countries?
In England, people open the back door to the beat of the clock so that all bad weather leaves the house, and with the last blow they open the front doors and let good luck, prosperity, and health come in.
The Hungarian people at midnight loudly play pipes, whistles, horns. They believe that it helps to expel evil spirits from the house.
Germans of all ages climb onto chairs, sofas, armchairs and, with the onset of the holiday, jump to the floor. They say it helps you jump into the new year clean and sinless.
Italians at the last minute of the old year throw out unnecessary dishes, things, furniture into the street. This allows them to get rid of bad energy.
In Spain, it is customary to eat 12 grapes and make 12 wishes.
In Scandinavia there is a tradition of grunting under the table, the Scandinavians claim that this helps them get rid of illness and bad luck.
But in China, the New Year is not celebrated on the first of January, the celebration is scheduled on different days. The main feature of the Chinese New Year is the decoration of houses and streets with small lanterns. And the children draw their sword on a piece of paper and before going to bed, put it under the pillow.
In India, the New Year is called Gudi Padva, on this day Indians must eat the leaves of the neem-nim tree.
Bulgaria is a country where the smallest member of the family reads poems to guests, sings songs, gives souvenirs that he takes off the Christmas tree.
For relaxation, children are invited to play the game "Who is more." Divide students into two teams, in turn they name words that can be attributed to the New Year. The team that stops last wins.
Children, and without whom there is no New Year's holiday? What does he look like? And who is his assistant? What is the name of Santa Claus in different countries?
In the United States of America, Canada, Great Britain - this is Santa Claus. He differs from our clothes, he always wears a red jacket with white fur and trousers.
There are two of them in Sweden: Yultomten and Yulnissaar, they reward obedient children and leave gifts for them under the window.
And in France there are also two Santa Clauses: Pere Noel and Chalande. The Befana fairy flies to Italian children on New Year's Eve.
In Romania - Mosh Krechun. Finland is famous for Joulupukki, he is always in the retinue of gnomes. In Estonia - Yiuluvana.
And the guys from Uzbekistan are looking forward to Corbobo, who arrives on a donkey.
All Santa Clauses are different in appearance, but they all give New Year's mood, joy, fun and long-awaited gifts.
The game "Let's draw a Christmas tree." Children are divided into two teams and take turns going to the board to draw one element of the Christmas tree. The team whose New Year's beauty will be more elegant wins.
v. Fizminutka. Children are invited to play the game "Mother Winter". The teacher reads and shows what to do.
Mother winter has come
Everything was covered in a blizzard.
(wave-like movements with the hands in front of you)
We will go through the snowdrifts
Through the dense forest.
(walking with high knees)
Suddenly they saw titmouse
We waved to them wave a pen)
And the titmouse blinked at us,
And flew away for the pines
(wave both hands)
Snowflakes suddenly flew
Like light fluff
(imitate falling snowflakes with fingers)
Turned around with us
They started dancing with us
(spin in place)
Hands clapped
(clap 4 times)
feet stomped
(stomp 4 times)
They ran up to the tree together
And Hurray!!! They screamed at her.
(we approach the Christmas tree - cheers !!!)
And now we all the people,
Let's say together...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Everyone knows that the best gift is a handmade gift. Having spent quite a bit of time, you can create a beautiful exclusive picture or postcard of the New Year theme, drawing on the ideas from our article.
It will be about how:
Landscape is perhaps the easiest option if you decide to draw a beautiful winter drawing. Where to begin? Of course, with the choice of technology:
- Pencil or crayons. The most ideal option for the first attempt, since it does not require serious financial investments. In addition, with a pencil, you can create New Year's drawings or postcards by 2018 simply on a landscape sheet.
- Graphic arts. At first glance, everything is simple. All you need is a simple pencil. But, in practice, this technique can be much more difficult, since every stroke is important here.
- Watercolor. In every house where there are children, there are inexpensive watercolors with which you can draw excellent winter-themed drawings for the New Year 2018.
- Acrylic. This is a tougher option. These paints can be painted on canvas. They dry quickly. But, be careful, because acrylic can cause allergic reactions.
- Oil- the choice of professionals. Such a picture, painted on canvas, will please the eye for many years.
We offer you to watch a master class of creating a winter landscape.
You can buy canvas today in specialized stores.
What to draw? Most often, the drawings dedicated to the New Year are winter nature, village houses, snow-covered treetops, and in 2018 the landscape can be supplemented with the image of a dog.
We draw New Year's characters
What a festive drawing or postcard without Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden! Do not worry, even if you do not know how to draw people beautifully. Drawing cartoon characters is not at all difficult. Here are some quick sketches of the main characters. Professional advice will help you create beautiful New Year's drawings in 2018.
We also suggest watching a video that shows you step by step how to draw Santa:
It is convenient that in the analysis the drawing is shown on a sheet in a box. If you are just learning to draw, draw a barely noticeable sheet - this will make the task easier.
The youngest artist will enjoy coloring New Year's pictures with Santa, Father Frost, Snegurochka and other characters of the New Year holidays.
Any drawings of New Year's characters you like, you can simply save to your computer, print and color as you wish.
We draw a dog - a symbol of 2018
An invariable element of many New Year's drawings in 2018 will be the symbol of the year - the dog. Although, according to the eastern calendar, the red earthen dog will become the patron of the year, for a postcard or picture, you can choose a representative of any breed, based on individual preferences.
Not so long ago, a cartoon about the life of pets that appeared on TV screens added a couple more cute faces to the army of favorite children's characters. Thinking through interesting New Year's drawings for the upcoming year of the dog, in 2018 you can use new characters - Max, Mel, Gidget and Buddy.
Also look at the video for a detailed analysis of how to draw Max:
We also offer to download any of the dogs you like and use it when creating your own New Year's picture:
We also offer ideas for original New Year's cards from a video that details how to create a do-it-yourself jet gift.
Create a digital postcard on a computer
The year 2018 is just around the corner, which means it's time to master not only pencils and paints. And graphic editors. In practice, creating a beautiful postcard or drawing original New Year's drawings using a PC is much easier than learning how to draw people and animals with a pencil.
To create electronic cards and drawings, in which, by the way, you can add photos or images of your favorite characters, you can use programs such as:
- Paint is the simplest graphics editor built into Windows;
- Avatan is an online version of the graphical environment that allows you to process photos, create collages and various postcards;
- Online Photoshop is a free online version of one of the most popular raster graphics editors that does not require installation of the program.
Of course, you can install the full-fledged Adobe Photoshop CS6 and get a lot of features. But, be prepared for the fact that it will take some time to master the program.
We suggest starting with a simple postcard with a photo, which will take only a few minutes to create a cat:
Of course, in this program, you can create a wide variety of New Year's drawings by loading the background of the postcard and adding various stickers after (do not forget that 2018 is the year of the dog), inscriptions and effects.
Try it and you will surely succeed!
