Author's didactic manual “Streets of the Big City” (magnetic layout)

In kindergartens, they often make play models of buildings, playgrounds, and different areas for children. Such playgrounds for dolls help children learn the rules of behavior in public places, play role-playing games, learn the features of the natural areas of our country and much more. To make such models, construction elements, ready-made miniatures of objects and various available materials are used.

In this article, Natalia Kudinova will show you how to make elements of a play layout for a children's park - a tree and a bench.

Master class “Tree” for layout

The layout contains deciduous, coniferous trees and shrubs. Let's take a step-by-step look at how to make a deciduous tree with a lush crown.

Materials and equipment

• stranded wire,
• polymer glue or titanium,
• tassel,
• acrylic paint,
• stationery knife,
• sponge,
• gouache,
• pliers,
• side cutters.

Execution steps

1. Using side cutters, cut a piece up to 15 cm in size from the wire. Cut the braid to the middle by about 7-8 cm.

2. We release the wire from the insulation and divide each bundle into 3 parts.

3. Form the crown of the tree. You can twist each part of the wiring using pliers, but you can do it well with your hands.

And again we divide the wiring. Thus, the branches of our tree decrease in thickness and increase in number. We give the branches a beautiful bend.

4. Paint the wood with acrylic paint.

5. For the foliage of the tree, use a gouache-painted sponge.

Each piece is glued to the branch with instant glue “Crystal”.

The result is a rather lush crown.

This is what the finished trees look like:

Master class “Bench in miniature” for layout

Our model has a fence and a bridge made of popsicle sticks and paper parasols. And of course, every park should have benches for rest, which is what we will do now.

Materials and equipment

• toothpicks,
• polymer glue or titanium,
• tassel,
• acrylic paint (for painting bench legs),
• any thread for knitting,
• wire,
• pliers,
• hot gun.

Execution steps

1. We tie the toothpicks together at both ends; you can coat the knots with glue to make them stronger.

2. In this way we attach 15-16 toothpicks.

3. Using wire, we use pliers to form the bends of the legs of our bench.

4. Using a hot gun, glue the bench legs and base together.

A tree and benches take their places on our park layout for a kindergarten:
