Winter time means snow-covered streets, flying snow, anticipation of the New Year holidays, and, of course, winter fun that children look forward to all year long.

These include sledding, skiing, skating, snowball fights, building snow figures, snowmen. Quite often, in drawing lessons, children are asked to draw winter fun, so let's take a closer look at what can be drawn on this topic and how to do it.

pictures in pencil

Almost all children love to draw, especially if the topic of the upcoming work is free. So in winter, very often children are asked to depict winter fun in a pencil drawing. Pictures on this topic are varied, of any complexity.

It can be Santa Claus, a Christmas tree decorated with balls and other decorations, children sledding, skiing, playing snowballs. Most children prefer to draw pictures of a snowman. This is due to the ease of its image.

But, in order for the drawing to be complete, in addition to the snowman, you need to draw something else. An excellent solution to the drawing, on the theme "Winter Fun", is the image of a snowman on a snowy street. You can draw it in 6 steps:

• First you need to delimit the horizon. In our case, it will be somewhat curved, which will help to betray the pattern of volume. On the left - you will need to make sketches of the future fence, on the right - trees located in the distance.

• We decorate the fence by drawing straight lines along its entire length. Behind it there will be trees, the drawing of which will need to be done at this stage. The closer the trees are to us, the larger they are. We draw the silhouette of a snowman - these are three circles, arranged from larger to smaller.

• At this stage, you need to draw the tops of the trees. In order to simplify the task, you can create their general silhouette without drawing branches. The snowman has facial features, a bucket hat. You can also depict hands that will become tree branches.

• In the hands depicted in the previous step, you will need to draw a spruce branch. From the side of the hand where the branch is depicted, we designate the top and trunk of the upcoming fluffy Christmas tree, after which we proceed to its image in the drawing with a pencil.

• Having drawn the Christmas tree, we begin to make out the drawing. Since the picture shows winter, it is necessary to draw snowdrifts and snow lying on a fence, trees, a snowman.

To do this, with the help of an eraser, carefully wipe the main lines, and draw the adhering snow in the erased area with uneven lines.

This is quite easy to do, and the picture from this is more realistic. You can decorate the Christmas tree with New Year's toys, and draw a bird near the snowman. It is important not to miss such a moment as the image of our snowman's legs, which are slightly immersed in a snowdrift.

• The final stage of drawing is the image of the falling snow. To do this, without pressing the pencil on the drawing, evenly draw small droplets falling from the sky at the same angle. The design can be considered complete.

The kids are sure to love what they have. If you follow the stages of the image of such a picture, then it will turn out to be voluminous and quite interesting.

In this case, it is enough to have a simple pencil and an eraser on hand. Naturally, this option is just an example of what winter pictures can be, so you can safely supplement it with your fantasies. If desired, the drawing can be painted with colored pencils, felt-tip pens, paints, which will make it even more interesting.

Plot pictures are a universal material for speech therapy work in kindergarten. They help the teacher to solve such problems:

• learn to write a descriptive story;
• enrich vocabulary;
• develop thinking, attention, imagination.

Various pictures for children depicting winter and winter fun should definitely be among the methodological materials of a speech therapist. You can use special thematic sets for kindergarten or select suitable images yourself. Consider several options for pictures about winter that will help in your work.

Picture Winter has come opens a series of images of nature, selected for the new season. It can be used in classes in the senior and preparatory groups, conducting classes on the topic "", "How animals prepare for the cold", "", "".

Narrative picture Winter in the forest - helps to visually show children the changes that occur in nature, in the forest. A beautiful winter landscape helps to expand the horizons and vocabulary of the child.

The description of the winter forest can be played up as a journey, an imaginary adventure into a painted area.

The snow-white Zimushka-Winter is an ideal background for Russian folk tales, this can also be used in collective and individual work with children. For this, a puppet tetra on a transparent background, superimposed on a forest landscape, is suitable.

Stories about winter should also include a description of the celebration of the New Year, the Christmas holidays. Children love these pictures of Winter more than others, they are more willing to work with them. It is very useful to pick up images of live Christmas trees in the forest and an elegant Christmas tree at the holiday, and then play Spot the Differences!

The next picture is called Winter outside the window, it shows the life of the metropolis in the coldest time of the year. For the preparatory group, it is good to use the image of the snow-covered streets of a big city and winter in the countryside; a pair of these illustrations can be used for collective work and games. Drawing winter in the city allows you to discuss with children not only changes in nature, but also to conduct speech games and exercises on the topic of Transport and Professions, since at this time you can see new cars and people doing special work on the street.

Pictures depicting winter children's games and outdoor sports are an excellent opportunity not only to enrich the active vocabulary and narrative speech of children, but also to work on fixing complex sounds. These can be exercises for differentiating C and Cb, C and Cb, C and C, Cb and Cb.

Several story pictures Winter fun will be useful for group work and for conducting open classes. Compose a story from the picture Winter fun will help, which schematically depicts:

• name of entertainment, games;
• her rules;
• her attributes;
• number of participants;
• best season.

For example, if the picture is dedicated to the winter fun "snowballs", then the following should be noted in the table:

• the first sound of the name of the game is soft X and the snowballs themselves;
• a ban on throwing snowballs in the face, at animals and birds, at kids;
• gloves, snow molds, shield, targets;
• one child and many;
• snowfall, large snowflakes.

With such support, children will be able to compose their story not only following the example of an adult, but also with the help of independent analysis. No inscriptions are needed, according to understandable schematic pictures, even pupils of the older group can easily compose a complete story.

In speech therapy work, it is useful to use a series of plot pictures on the topic Winter fun, Winter sports, etc. Here is an approximate list of games that a speech therapist can conduct on the topic Winter fun on plot pictures, one or a series:

• "What happened next?" (continue story)
• What is in the picture ... (white, cold, fluffy, etc.)
• "Journey to Drawing"
• "Guess what I'm talking about!"

The themes of the arrival of winter and winter children's fun are a real “methodological treasury” for a speech therapist and teacher. There are a lot of options for its use. We have provided you with just a few of them.

It is worth saying that I rarely manage to participate in competitions, because. I am either busy on the dates when the contest is held, or I am not satisfied with the criteria for choosing winners (for example, voting is carried out in contact by the largest number of likes, which are now easy to wind up and get the right amount). This time it so happened that the dates fell out well, just in time for the New Year holidays, and the selection of works was carried out by an independent jury. For this, of course, I would like to say special thanks to the organizers of the competition.

I found out about the competition by chance, when I went to the store's website in search of paper for pastels. I was immediately interested in the idea of ​​the competition - to create my own unique plot on the theme of winter festivities, sports, games. I immediately discarded the copying option, because. All works were checked for uniqueness. According to one of the criteria, I also had to place the name of the store's website on my work.

In general, I got excited about the idea to participate and began to sort out what kind of games and festivities take place in winter. Having made a preliminary list of various sports and games, for several days I thought about what to choose from the list so that the idea was not boring. And in the end I settled on the option of playing snowballs and skiing. And to make it completely New Year's, I decided to add a team of snowmen to the picture. The idea was formed as follows - skiing competitions are held in the winter forest, where children and snowmen participate. But these competitions are not enough for the teams. Right on the ski slope, several snowmen and children staged a snowball fight, which is about to hit skiers passing by.

The final version of the idea took shape on my last working day in 2015, December 25th. Arriving home, I very quickly, while all the images were fresh, sketched out in a sketchbook the main idea, the location of characters and objects:

As you can see, this is literally a two-three minute quick sketch with chaotic lines expressing the general idea. Why I arranged the characters and details in this way, I will tell / show at the end of the article.

One of the following days off I started a more detailed sketch already on A4 format with more detailed characters. In doing so, I decided to move the birds from the tree on the left to the greeting banner at the top:

When I was satisfied with the arrangement of objects and characters, I took A3 paper to create an even more detailed sketch, which will serve as a reference for me when I draw already on A3 pastel paper:

I have not placed birds and inscriptions here, only the location of the main objects and details on the characters.

At the next stage, I copied a sketch (it was just the ability to copy or copy that came in handy here) on the final sheet of Canson pastel paper, on which I planned to carry out the rest of my creative activity. Moreover, on this sheet, I made all the lines with a simple pencil very thin, and before putting the pastel, I removed additional graphite from the paper with a nag, brightening the lines to the maximum.

I started working with pastels by drawing the sky and the distant plan of the trees. Everything here is like in an ordinary landscape, the main thing to remember. On large spaces, I used different brands of dry pastels. Details were drawn with Derwent pastel pencils. The bright white areas were done with MUNGYO's extra soft pastels:

By the way, in the final sketch, I decided that the crow that stole the carrot nose from the snowman would sit on a branch with spread wings, adding more movement to the picture - a snowman without a nose jumps to get a carrot, the crow teases him and evades him, flapping his wings. Here I carefully drew the letters on all the banners with the help of a ruler, again trying to follow the laws of perspective.

Having completed the drawing of the background, I began to work on the children. And this turned out to be the most difficult moment in the picture for me. Before that, I had never painted children. Well, somehow it was not necessary at all. And even more so their faces with emotions. Here it was necessary to draw at least 3 children's faces. I tried to google a little, but I could not find such children's faces that would correspond to my image in my head. I had to practice on a separate sheet of paper. The first "victim" was the girl on the left. I drew 5 or 6 of the girl's faces on a separate sheet, but they all came out creepy as hell. The last version was more or less, and I decided to reproduce it on the "clean" version. After completing the face, I completed the hat, hair, coat and boots. He walked away a little from the picture, once again was horrified at how terrible the girl turned out to be, and having removed her face, having completely erased the pastel to the paper, he went to bed.

The next day, for some reason, all problems were removed as if by hand. I have already noticed more than once that if something doesn’t work out badly, you need to sleep with it and everything will work out tomorrow. As a result, the faces turned out to be more or less good-natured :-)

And a close-up:

From above, fans are watching the snowball fights, actively supporting the teams with their chirping:

And the competitors are already visible in the distance! By the way, the inscription "Hello to the Participants of the Competition" refers not only to the characters in the picture, but also to the participants in the "Winter Fun" contest:

The final step was to draw a team of snowmen. This turned out to be a fairly simple task, because. the shape of the snowman consists of simple balls, so it was not difficult to distribute light and shadow. Close-up of this site:

Well, here is the final illustration for the Winter Fun contest, which won 1st place:

As I promised at the beginning of the article, I show why such a composition of characters and elements was chosen in the illustration:

If someone hasn't guessed yet, then the red line shows the approximate route of attention movement. Moreover, the trajectory works in both directions. Wherever the eye passes, obstructing elements (trees, overhead banner, jumping snowman) block its exit from the picture and direct it further along the circle, keeping attention inside the picture.

I hope you found this story helpful. Be sure to participate in competitions if your free time allows. In my opinion, this is a good opportunity to try something new and find out what possibilities you have! Well, I'm already impatiently waiting for the prize - a wooden case with extra soft MUNGYO pastels from 160 colors.

By the way, I recommend you the Etudesite online store for buying art materials. I chose this store a long time ago, because. they have some of the lowest prices, a good selection, and also have the option to purchase materials by the piece, such as pastels. The latter is very convenient. For example, not so long ago I ordered MUNGYO extra soft pastels from them by the piece. The package arrived in just a week! The pastel was neatly stacked in foam rubber packages of several bars. Everything arrived safe and sound.

Well, that's all for me. Don't forget to leave comments and share the article with your friends.
