Do-it-yourself crafts made from grains, cereals and various seeds are a great way to keep children busy, because working with such natural material perfectly trains fine motor skills of the hands, which helps to improve general and speech development. Also, such activities help to educate children in patience, diligence and perseverance.




Features of creativity using natural materials

Crafts from cereals with their own hands can be made not only by schoolchildren, because such joint creativity is suitable even for small children. True, you will need to be inseparable with the kids so that they do not harm themselves in any way.

So, as a material you may need:

  • all kinds of cereals and grains - buckwheat, rice, millet, semolina;
  • legumes - peas, lentils and colorful beans;
  • any seeds and seeds - watermelon, pumpkin, melon and sunflower, etc.

You can even take. Also, in the process of work, you will need: thick paper or cardboard, glue, scissors, fabric, plasticine, templates of various patterns, decorations (as you wish).

The best do-it-yourself crafts from cereals, seeds and seeds are applications and paintings. You can come up with stories with your child on your own, or use some ready-made templates and transfer them to paper. The complexity of the work should depend on the age of the children, keep in mind that the kid should be interested in doing the craft on his own, albeit with your help, but not be completely on the sidelines.

We create applications and paintings with our own hands

The theme of the work can be anything. But crafts made from grains and other natural materials on the theme of spring are very beautiful and original. Spring landscapes (crafts from watermelon seeds and cereals), lush flowers (flowers from pumpkin seeds are especially good - asters, sunflowers, snowdrops) are great ideas for children's creativity.

The more you use various cereals, seeds and seeds, the better, because they all differ not only in size and shape, but also in color and texture. That is, you will have a huge space for imagination and creativity. And if your bean craft needs some special colors, then you can always color your materials using watercolors or gouache.


Try to start with a simple application. For example, as a craft from pumpkin seeds, you can make a basket of flowers.

  1. Draw the outlines of the basket on a sheet of thick paper or cardboard and spread them with glue.
  2. Next, spread pumpkin seeds along these contours to make a voluminous basket out of them.
  3. Inside, draw flowers in exactly the same way - these can be sunflowers, asters, poppies, daisies, snowdrops, or any others. Use seeds of various sizes to create them - pumpkin, watermelon, sunflower seeds.
  4. The middle of the flowers can be made from beads or covered with small cereals.
  5. Paint your bouquet and paint the basket brown. You can decorate the application with sparkles or stickers, add some details from plasticine.

On the theme of spring, it is easy to make a vase of flowers - just like a basket. To keep children's seed crafts for a long time and not crumble, you can sprinkle them with hairspray or cover them with clear nail polish.


A favorite pastime for children will be the creation of applications and paintings depicting various animals, birds or fish. Come up with a plot with your child and bring the fairy tale to life with the help of crafts made from pumpkin or watermelon seeds, as well as other various materials.



Incredibly cute are fish, hedgehogs, bees, snails, ducks, cats and other animals. See how easy it is to make a picture of a hedgehog as a craft from seeds.

  1. Print out a picture of a hedgehog or draw it yourself.
  2. Put a good layer of glue on his back and begin to gradually attach seeds to him (this can be watermelon seeds or sunflower seeds).
  3. You need to glue the seeds so that they are all directed with sharp tips in one direction.
  4. The remaining parts of the hedgehog's body can simply be painted, and mushrooms or fruits made of plasticine can be attached to the thorns.



But what an interesting picture you can create with a peacock using watermelon seeds, as well as semolina and corn grits.

  1. We draw a peacock on thick paper or print out a ready-made template (even ordinary coloring pages will do).
  2. Spread glue on the round ends of the feathers and fill them with corn grits. Do the same with the paws of the bird.
  3. When it dries a little, shake off the residue from the sheet.
  4. Decorate the feathers with watermelon seeds, gluing each one tightly.
  5. After a while, glue the entire remaining image of the peacock, except for the head, and fill it with semolina, while clearing the contours with a toothpick.
  6. The head can be painted, and the picture can be decorated as you wish. As you can see, crafts from watermelon seeds are made very simply.



Other ideas for crafts made from natural materials

A picture can be not only an image of something, but also be just a panel of cereals, seeds and other natural materials.

Such a panel is best done on fabric (usually burlap or other natural fabric is used), but paper can also be taken. Divide your space into different sectors - these can be geometric shapes or abstraction, and then fill them with various grains and seeds (choose material of different colors, textures and shapes, combine them and try to combine them correctly).

To separate sectors, take jute twine - then your natural panel will turn out to be more organic. Usually such pictures are not painted, but you can fix them with varnish.

With older children, you can try to create three-dimensional figures or toys, like crafts from seeds and cereals. Then the material will need to be attached to the frame of your product, for example, you can make a house for some fairy-tale hero, a shape for a candlestick, or decorate a photo frame.

Crafts from seeds with your own hands is the idea of ​​​​a wonderful co-creation with children, which will bring benefits and good mood for your whole family.

In winter, when it’s cloudy and cold outside, it’s nice to remember summer, flowers that give us a unique aroma and beauty. And I want to do something that will pleasantly surprise and delight friends and relatives. In the boxes on the shelf there are seeds of plants, vegetables, flowers dried in summer. They conceal the warmth, light and smell of summer. The idea of ​​creating a composition from seeds comes up. Creating paintings and crafts from natural materials is a special kind of creativity called floristry. In the works of floristry, dry leaves, flowers, herbs, seeds and fruits of plants, tree bark are used. Various forms of natural materials often suggest interesting stories themselves. By fantasizing, imagining, combining natural materials, you can create amazing things with your own hands.

Today I offer a master class on making flowers from seeds.
Look at the seeds of pumpkin, melon, watermelon. What do they remind you of? Of course, flower petals. Try to collect these petals into beautiful flowers. Here's what happened.



To compile a composition from seeds, you will need the following materials and tools:
- frame, blue fabric;
- thick white paper;
- pumpkin seeds, buckwheat;
- dried corn leaves, straws;
- birch bark;
- scissors, gouache paints, brush;
- glue "Titan";


Step-by-step execution of a bouquet from natural material.
Prepare the frame. Remove the glass and stretch a cloth over the cardboard or glue a sheet of colored paper.


Mark circles with a diameter of 2-3 cm, 4 cm, 6-7 cm on hard paper and cut them out. I used different size jars.



Apply titanium glue along the edge of the circle and glue the pumpkin seeds. Got flowers.



Mix yellow paint with a small amount of PVA glue and carefully paint the petals. Let dry and apply colorless nail polish.
Then grease the middle of the flower well with glue and sprinkle with buckwheat.



While the paint on the petals will dry, let's make the leaves. We will make them from corn leaves. (Corn leaves were ironed, dried under pressure in the fall).


For twigs, take straws.


Make a vase. Give space to your imagination. A vase, for example, can be made: from paper sprinkled with small seeds; from dried leaves; from straw. We will make it from birch bark. Take thick cardboard, fold it in half, draw a vase and cut it out.



Cut the birch bark into thin strips. Lubricate one edge of the vase with Titan glue and glue strips of birch bark horizontally.



Start weaving. Consistently weave all the strips vertically into the workpiece, fixing them at the ends with glue.




Cut long strips along the contour of the vase. Glue the border. The vase is ready.


We form a bouquet. Glue the vase, then arrange the branches - straws.
Start filling the bouquet with leaves. First the background and then the front, giving the composition the desired shape and silhouette. Lightly smooth the leaves through the paper with the palm of your hand. Leave 2-3 sheets up. This will create volume.


Glue the flowers. Place large ones at the bottom, smaller ones above, and buds at the top of the bouquet.


golden sunflower,
Petals are rays.
He is the son of the sun
And spring clouds.
Wakes up in the morning
The sun shines.
close at night
Yellow eyelashes.

But such forget-me-nots from watermelon seeds were made by my pupil Ulyana.

How to make crafts from seeds (pits) of watermelon and plasticine with your own hands. Master classes.

Children's crafts from seeds (pits) of watermelon

Watermelon seeds are wonderful, which can be used in children's creativity. What can be done from watermelon seeds with children?

One of the easiest ways to secure watermelon seeds to a craft is to press them into plasticine. Even kids can handle this method of making crafts from watermelon seeds, and crafts can be both flat and voluminous. They can be made with children not only in the summer, during the watermelon season, but also at other times of the year, you just need to prepare the seeds.

I somehow met a negative review of one woman on such a craft. She wrote that crafts made from watermelon seeds make her squeamish. I think that she got such an attitude because she herself ate watermelons like in a fairy tale - so that it would flow down her mustache and not get into her mouth. And spit out the seeds. But it is much more convenient to eat a watermelon by cutting it into small slices and removing the seeds from them with a knife. There is no reason for squeamishness in this case.

If cardboard is used in the craft in addition to plasticine, it is better if it is glossy, otherwise greasy spots appear on the cardboard from plasticine over time.

How to prepare (dry) watermelon seeds

To prepare watermelon seeds, they need to be washed well, spread out on a napkin or towel and wait until they dry. Then pour into a jar or box for storage.
