Children have high creative potential, which can be successfully developed. Initially, with the help of parents and teachers, and then on their own initiative, they can make toys and simple souvenirs for gifts. Especially children like to make fairy-tale heroes and various animals.
We suggest together with the child to execute an article - a bear from cones. Mishka is an invariable hero of folk tales and a character beloved by children, so your baby will gladly accept the offer to make an interesting toy-souvenir. When making a bear of cones with his own hands, the senior preschooler or junior schoolboy learns the elementary ways of placing and connecting parts, he develops the ability to act in accordance with the instruction. And, of course, the baby gets used to making unique items to decorate the interior of the home.

You will need:
- one big cone (cedar or fir);
- four small pine cones and one pine cone of medium size;
- coil of coarse yarn (rope);
- thin wire.
How to make a bear out of a cone?
- First, try to sample the elements of the future craft: how proportionate will the parts look? If you are satisfied with the fitting result, we suggest starting the execution of the toy.
- We wrap a big bump - the body of the yarn (rope), while the coils must lie tightly and consistently. Attach a wire to the head. Also we attach paws from pine cones to the body with the help of wire. But it is quite possible to use for fixing clay or universal adhesive.
- We wind the bear's face with yarns, forming a narrower nose and making loops of yarn on the head - these are the ears. The head of the bear is securely attached to the body.
- Correct all the details of the craft, check the fasteners. A bear of pine and fir cones is ready!
Bear of one bump
Parents who have a pre-school child is still small, it will be interesting to learn how to make a bear from a cone with a baby? The proposed item is available for making even a four-year-old child. The only difficulty - it is necessary to break off the bumps of the two parts. A very small child to do this will help my father or mother.
You will need:
- one big fir cone;
- plasticine brown (or yellow) and black;
- stack.
- We break off two pieces of a plate from the prepared cone. Of these, we will later produce ears.
- We make a bear-like face of brown plasticine. The eyes and the tip of the nose roll out of the tiny pieces of black plasticine. We attach them to the muzzle.
- From the brown plasticine we make paws, a short tail. We attach them. We stick the ears from the plates from the cones to the head. With the help of a stack we make double notches on the paws and create the features of the muzzle.
The result is a teddy bear made of cones, can be hung on a Christmas tree as a decoration or presented as a gift to a grandmother and grandfather who are sure to be pleased that their grandson or granddaughter is growing so skillfully!
