Happy Easter to you, dear guests!
Happy Sunday!
Happy holiday and have fun!
And the bells ring on Easter - the soul rejoices:
Everyone is invited to join us:
And the turntable young ladies,
And the nesting dolls are laughing!
And serving soldiers!
And grumpy grandfathers!
And most of all we call the children
Girls and boys!
We will sing and play,
Remember the old days!
To every home with red spring
Good news is coming to us.
My soul is light and clear.
On this day Christ is Risen.
Rejoice, rejoice people,
We'll be happy now
After all, love came from heaven.
On this day Christ is Risen.
May there be peace on the entire planet,
Let the children laugh joyfully
And let the sun shine from heaven:
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
Song: “We Joyfully Celebrate Easter.”
(lyrics by V. Kuzmenkov.)
Host: The Easter holiday lasts a whole week. On these days, people do good deeds. Easter is a holy day of kindness and consolation.
For Easter they prepared Easter cakes, Easter cakes, painted eggs, and baked pies.
This holiday is rich in customs and rituals. On this day, they dressed in all light colors, washed themselves with gold, silver, and red eggs - in the hope of getting rich!
And our great-grandfathers and grandfathers
The custom was sacredly observed!
Dressed up in the best clothes
And the house was beautifully decorated.
Our children are great too
Help adults from the heart
Paint colors for Easter
And clean the apartment
They can make repairs for you
Or a cheese sandwich.
They will tell you everything themselves
And, of course, they will show it.
We can do everything
And without further ado
We will replace everyone
Plasterers, floor polishers
Painters and carpenters
And other workers.
Take your brushes apart quickly
Start dancing together.
Dance “About repairs”.
(Phonogram of the song “Song about Repairs” performed by Oleg Popov.)
What a nice day
Get ready for a round dance
Let's walk around
Let's have some fun in spring!
Let's start a round dance
Let's all drink together.
Game: “Burn, burn, clear.”
This is how healthy they danced
They showed their prowess!
The first spring games and round dances begin with Holy Easter Week. Let us also call out spring.
Tits are sisters,
Tap dancers - aunts,
Kulichki are men,
Starlings are great
Fly to us from across the sea,
Bring red spring
With silk grass
With pearl dew,
With the warm sun.
With wheat grain!
Spring, spring, how did it come?
On the plow, on the harrow,
On the wrong side.
The sun was rolling across the west,
The red rolled into the dark.
The night has passed, the darkness has gone
The cricket fell silent and the cockerel crowed.
I lay down for a while
She opened the window:
Hello, bell sun.
Song "Spring has come to us."
(Music and lyrics by V. Shishkarev.)
The snow cover has already been removed from the fields,
And the rivers break from their shackles,
And the nearby forest turns green...
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
The birds settled in their nests,
The snow melted like a candle!
The air smells of sweet spirit
Golden Easter cake!
The sun started to rain
On this day of holy miracles,
And kissing me, dad
He says: “Christ is risen!”
God has risen and death has been defeated!
This victorious news came rushing
God-resurrected spring...
And the forests all around turned green
And the chest of the earth breathed warmth,
And listening to the trills of the nightingale
All the willows bloomed in the spring.
Dance with willow branches.
(Phonogram of the song “Willow”, music by Yu. Pasternak, lyrics by E. Grigorieva.)
Yes, a lot of fairy tales, children,
Wanders around the big planet.
Fairy tales are sad, funny,
Fairy tales are kind and kind.
My fairy tale is in a hurry:
About Alenka, about the Hares,
About the Easter egg -
There will be a fairy tale for the guys.
Two funny bunnies
They ran through the forest
And on the forest lawn
We met each other.
1st bunny: Where are you going?
2nd bunny: Where are you going?
1st bunny: I'm running to the city!
2nd bunny: I'm going to the village. What did you forget in the city?
1st bunny:
Tomorrow is the bright holiday of Easter!
I need to buy Easter eggs -
To the nice girl Alenka
I want to give them as a gift.
2nd bunny:
Soon they'll take you to church
Bless Easter and Easter eggs...
You, brother, are late!
1st bunny: Are you late? Oh, what should I do?
2nd bunny:
Bunny, you are good to us,
I won't leave you in trouble
You know, in the rain and heat
I am always next to you!
Soroka has Easter eggs,
Our white-sided aunt.
Our aunt is a craftswoman,
The capital sends her orders!
The bunnies walk to the soundtrack of the song “If you went on a journey with a friend.”
(Lyrics by M. Tanich, Music by V. Shainsky.)
So two Bunnies, two friends,
They ran after each other.
And don’t rush after them
True friends came out.
(Sun, Starling, Spring come out.)
I am the red sun
Warm, wonderful.
I am Starling - the messenger of spring
I send greetings to all ends.
Well, I am Spring-red
I came here to see you too.
We came here for a reason
Happy Easter, dear friends!
Dance “Spring” to the soundtrack of the song “Merry Song”.
(Lyrics by V. Borisov, Music by A. Ermolov.)
Our bunnies, two friends,
They ran after each other.
We played catch up,
Even the wind was overtaken.
Along the path, and up the hill,
Across the river behind the hill,
Only their heels sparkled -
The bunnies ran quickly.
Here's my aunt's house on the way,
How can you not pass by!
And the magpie is white-sided
I've already finished work,
I laid out the little letters,
I dried them in the sun...
(Magpie comes out into the clearing, holding painted Easter eggs.)
1st bunny: Hello, Auntie Soroka.
2nd bunny: Help us out, Beloboka!
Magpie: What do the nice Bunnies need?
1st bunny: I really need Easter eggs!
2nd bunny: Really, aunt, it’s very urgent!
I see you are very smart.
Do you have any money?
Bunnies: We thought it was possible without money...
Magpie: No! It is impossible without money!
Hey, ayy! Forest friends,
Help out dears!
(Children come out dressed as Teddy Bear and Squirrel.)
1st bunny: To buy Easter eggs,
You need to pay money.
2nd bunny:
How can Alenka live without Easter eggs?
After all, the girl will be offended!
Mishka: Yes, the task, what can I say...
Squirrel: We need to rescue the hares
Bear: (Hands out a barrel of honey to Soroka.)
On you, magpie, honey,
Take the whole deck.
Give me some eggs in return
There are seven of the brightest ones.
I'll give you a handkerchief
And to boot, there are mushrooms.
And now the Magpies are together
We will also give you a song.
(Lyrics by Y. Akim, Music by V. Gerchik.)
Oh, how good the song is
My soul has blossomed!
You gave me joy
I forgot about the money.
Take my pysanky,
Bring it to your girl,
I don't need your money
I'm glad to help out the hares.
Bunnies from the slide to the bridge,
Jump and hop with Easter eggs...
And to Alenka on the way
They wanted to come in
To Uncle Vasya, Aunt Zina...
Lots of Easter eggs in the basket!
Here is Alenka’s house.
It's going to be a girl's holiday!
(Alenka appears and gets ready to go to church.)
Church bells ringing
It is heard over Russia,
And in the ditch everything is more alive
A cheerful stream meanders.
A ray of sunshine is like a thread
Between heaven and earth
If they believe, they will live
People are a friendly family.
The sun sparkles in the puddles,
The willow blossomed down,
"Alive, live!" - birds chirp,
And the bells sing.
Brighter than the morning east,
How warm it is on a spring holiday!
A sprout reaches towards the light
Glory to the joy of Happy Easter!
(The Bunnies come in and hand Alenka a basket of Easter eggs.)
1st bunny:
Hello, dear Alenka,
We are happy to congratulate you on the holiday!
2nd bunny:
Here's to your obedience
These Easter eggs are a reward!
And happy Alenka
Everyone brings Easter eggs to the temple,
The gospel is buzzing everywhere:
“Red Easter is coming!”
Great day, spring day,
The sun is not too lazy to shine!
All people are celebrating Christ
On a wonderful holiday day!
To the accompaniment of cheerful music, the presenter introduces the performers of the fairy tale heroes.
Ay, tari, tari, tari,
They brought you eggs:
Yellow, red,
Eggs are all different:
Complex, painted
Difficult, golden!
Who will take the egg faster?
That's who will get it!
(The presenter distributes colored eggs.)
I know children love to play.
So isn't it time to start?
Whose testicle will touch the candy?
You'll get it, kids!
The game “Whose egg will touch the prize.”
(Rolling eggs on a board to the candy.)
And here are three more eggs,
There will be a new game:
Who can spin the egg the longest?
He will win!
The game “Who can spin the egg the longest?”
Presenter: For the holiday of Easter, our guys have prepared gifts for their loved ones.
Children, take gifts in your hands
Give them to your loved ones with love.
(Children give gifts to the music)
Praise the Lord from heaven
And sing incessantly
The world of his wonders is filled
And unspeakable glory!
Praise the Lord from heaven
And praise, people!
Christ is risen!
Christ is risen!
And trample death forever!
(The children leave the hall to the music.)

30.03.2015The end of Lent is approaching, after which Holy Week will begin, and then the main goal of the Lenten season awaits us - Easter, the Holy Resurrection of Christ. How can the youngest celebrate this holiday? Once upon a time, traditions were passed down in the family from generation to generation - “from mouth to mouth”, “from heart to heart”. Today, and this is no secret, we have to relearn how to celebrate our Orthodox holidays. We, adults, should introduce children to history and traditions from early childhood, for example, by organizing such holidays in kindergarten.
Easter is one of the brightest and most beautiful holidays for children, and at the same time not very clear! How to tell children about the history of the holiday, its traditions, explain why it is so important for every person correctly and accessible? There may be some doubt as to how parents will perceive such information. After all, there are families who believe that this information is not necessary for the child. To dispel your doubts, you can conduct a survey of parents.
Questionnaire:
1. What does your child know about the holidays and traditions of the Russian people?
2. What holidays are celebrated in your family?
3. Do you tell your child about Orthodox holidays:
– If yes, what exactly are you telling me?
- If not, why not?
4. Do you think it is necessary to tell a child in kindergarten about Orthodox holidays, traditions and customs?
After analyzing the results of the survey, you can begin to draw up the right scenario that will interest children and not make them bored.
Preparation for the holiday:paint eggs
Where should we start preparing for the holiday? First, you need to remember what exactly it is associated with. The answer is simple: with Easter cakes and colored eggs. Therefore, on the eve of Easter, the teacher needs to bring colored eggs from home. These can be either artificial or real dyes and Easter eggs.
Also, before the holiday, you can invite children to bring boiled eggs from home and paint them themselves. During a drawing class, a kindergarten teacher can show the basic ways of painting eggs for the holiday. However, if children are not interested in standard options, they should not be forced to do everything according to the rules. After all, holidays are always associated with creativity. Therefore, let the children draw whatever they want on the eggs - their favorite characters, family, themselves.
We must not forget to praise the kids for their work. And when there is a holiday in kindergarten, you can make an exhibition from these eggs - let parents look at the creativity of their children.
Holiday scenario
As for the Easter celebration itself in kindergarten, it is necessary to create a scenario that could explain to children the essence of this holiday and not frighten them. Therefore, you should not focus too much attention on the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is better to tell about His miraculous resurrection, emphasizing the fact that good people always get back the good they have done.
At the beginning of the Easter holiday in kindergarten, the teacher should ask the children what they know about Jesus Christ. Let them tell you everything they know. After this, the teacher needs to briefly and interestingly outline the history of the events that occurred from Good Friday to the Holy Resurrection of Christ.
After this, children can go on stage with Easter poems and songs. Let the guys tell the story of the bright holiday of Easter in verse.
Celebrating Easter in kindergartens is not complete without competitions and outdoor games. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn Russian folk games and games of other nationalities. To compete in speed and dexterity, you can offer a variety of relay races with Easter eggs, for example, “Carry an egg in a spoon,” “Collect an Easter basket,” and others.
Competitions should be specifically Easter. For example, children are given colored eggs and told that they must beat their opponent's egg. The kid whose egg remains intact wins. Another simple and fun competition is to see whose egg will roll the furthest. To do this, you need a slide, which can be a long and wide board placed at an angle. Two children throw eggs down this “slide”; the one whose egg rolls further wins.
What can you tell your children about Easter?
After the competitions, the teacher can talk a little more about the traditions of celebrating Easter. Here you can turn to theatricality. Dramatic re-enactments and puppet shows are invariably present in the scenarios of the Easter holidays. For the little ones, educators can offer simple, understandable stories. For example, the theme of Easter eggs is often developed in the plot of “Ryaba the Hen,” which laid a golden egg. For older preschoolers - deeper stories, retelling biblical parables, aimed at helping children understand the true, deep meaning of the holiday.
After this, you can hold another competition. It is necessary to hide eggs throughout the hall (these can be either Easter eggs or chocolate Kinder surprises). The children's task is to find as many hidden eggs as possible. The winner receives not only honestly collected eggs, but also an interesting prize that the teacher will come up with. It can be either a basket with sweets or an interesting toy that every child will like.
How to make crafts for Easter in kindergarten? Easter is a very colorful holiday, filled with childish, cheerful traditions. The process of preparing for it brings pleasant excitement to the baby’s life, anticipation of joyful moments and surprises.
Minutes of creativity will help the child pass the wait and better reveal the atmosphere of the upcoming celebration. For example, you can make charming crafts for Easter in kindergarten and congratulate teachers and comrades in the group with them.
Easter crafts made from kinder surprise eggs
Making Easter crafts with your own hands is an interesting and exciting task for children. Children's crafts for Easter can be made in a variety of techniques: applique, drawing, modeling from plastic material, scrapbooking, embroidery and many others. We propose to create custom souvenirs on an Easter theme.
From floss threads, shells and a Kinder Surprise egg you get an adorable chicken in a nest.
You can build a whole nest with chicks from plastic eggs.
You can make a real Easter bouquet from plastic eggs.

DIY Easter bunnies
Another Easter favorite is the bunny. The easiest way to make an Easter bunny is to glue it together from disposable paper plates.

You don’t have to tie the bunny’s head with a thread, but you can still make a funny tail out of a pompom for the bunny.
DIY Easter baskets
Foarmina or colored cardboard makes a lovely Easter basket.
Foamiran can be cut in the shape of a circle, make cuts on it and glue it along the edges. We will get a small basket for one egg. If we weave three strips into a braid, we will get a handle for the basket.
Adorable Easter baskets - chickens are made from disposable paper cups.

Applications for Easter in kindergarten
In honor of Easter, you can make a large number of bright and colorful crafts made using the applique technique. The first option is the Easter Basket applique. Using potatoes, we make colored prints on a sheet of paper. We wait until they dry and cut them out. Paint half a paper plate brown and glue beige stripes onto it. We glue one strip to the top, making the handle of the basket. We fill our basket with eggs.
Colored Easter eggs can be used as room decoration.
Take note of the Easter cake applique. Willow branches are made from twisted paper tape. We make the willows and lights themselves from rolled paper (using the quilling technique).
Easter cake applique
Colored cardboard, ribbon and pieces of plasticine make a charming Easter decoration.
Beans, peas or corn can be used to make a wonderful Easter chicken applique.
Easter applique "chicken"
Another wonderful Easter craft made using the appliqué technique is a chicken on a stick.
The Easter chick can be placed in a paper pocket. Cut out the shell and all the details of the chicken from colored paper. Glue all the elements and decorate with flowers.
One of the sides of the testicle can be connected with a movable hinge. Then the chick can be “opened and closed” in the testicle. We make the chicken itself from felt and decorate it with a feather. The chicken does not need to be glued to the base, then it can be taken out and placed in the egg. The kids will love this Easter craft!
The chicken applique can be made from painted cotton balls.
“Chicken” applique made from cotton balls
Another version of the applique for Easter is “Easter Easter cake”. Cut out the napkin like a snowflake. Glue it and a cake made of brown paper.
Glue the eggs and the base of the candle. We make the flame and the top of the cake from rolled paper. Decorate the Easter cake with pieces of plasticine and glue flowers.
“Powder” for Easter cake and flowers
Another original craft for Easter is button applique.
DIY Easter cards
Using adhesive tape you can make a very delicate Easter card. Strips of adhesive tape are glued to the back layer of the card. Glue onto it the front layer of white paper with an egg-shaped hole. Decorate with a delicate flower - your Easter card is ready!
A voluminous paper Easter card can be a very unusual craft for Easter. Fold the base of the card - thick paper according to the pattern.
Folding the base of the card
We decorate the “steps” of the postcard with Easter and spring attributes.
A very beautiful Easter card can be made using the scrapbooking technique. To do this, you can use colored paper, ribbons, flowers or napkins, as well as use special kits for scrapbooking.
Easter card with ribbons
Watch the video on how to make a beautiful Easter card with your own hands:
Crafts for Easter using quilling technique
A charming Easter card made using the quilling technique. The basis of the craft will be cardboard folded in half in the shape of an egg.
For the postcard we will need special paper strips for quilling. We cut two of them (yellow) with special scissors, making a fringe on one of the edges. Now we twist our strips into rolls - we get the body and head of the chicken.
By twisting other strips we form flowers, a sun and a cloud and a wing. Glue all the details of the Easter card onto the base.
Another wonderful craft for Easter using the quilling technique is a three-dimensional egg with a chicken. We wrap the tennis ball in film and glue the white rolls one by one. Glue the rolls one to another.
We will get a blank that looks like half an egg shell. We fix the improvised shell on a stand (we glue the stand from round purple and compressed green rolls).
Easter craft from paper balls “Temple”
In order to make such a craft we will need thin paper. A regular napkin works very well. We cut the paper into fairly large strips, apply liquid glue to it and roll it into tight balls.
We roll white, blue and orange balls. We dip each ball in glue and glue it onto thick cardboard.
When all the balls take their places, we should have a temple. Now we need paper quilling tape. We roll small spirals from white paper strips. Fix the edge of the paper tape with glue. We squeeze the paper spirals on one side - we should get small white droplets.
Glue strips of brown paper. We place paper droplets along the edges - we should get very delicate willow branches around the temple. We decorate the top of the temple with a cross made of golden paper. Our beautiful white-walled temple is ready!
Easter craft “Temple”
Crafts for Easter from eggshells
You can use dyed and regular eggshells to make adorable Easter chicks.
You can make a small Easter applique from eggshells.
And here is a stunning Easter composition made from eggshells “cockerel and hen”. For this craft, you can use a whole boiled egg or a whole eggshell. We glue eyes, a comb and a beak onto the testicle - we have a cockerel.
We decorate the chicken with a bow and rope hairs.
We cut out the bottom of a plastic bottle and wrap it in colored paper - we get the basis for an Easter basket. We tie the basket with a ribbon and place corrugated paper straws in it. We plant a cockerel and a hen in this cozy nest. Easter craft for kindergarten - ready!
Easter souvenir in an egg shell
A very touching Easter souvenir can be made right in an eggshell. First we need to make a hole in the raw egg. The contents should flow out carefully. Wash the testicle and let it dry. We should be left with a clean, dry shell.
We make a hole in the top of the shell with an awl and thread a rope through it. We tie the rope in a knot so that the egg can be hung.
Fill the shell with sisal or thin paper shavings.
We put fluffy Easter chicks and small Easter eggs inside. Ready! All that remains is to hang the souvenir by the string.
The kids will be delighted with the “chicken” Easter egg tray. Cut out a chicken from cardboard.
Place the chicken on a cardboard egg tray. Place a corrugated paper straw at the bottom.
We paint the eggs, draw eyes, attach combs and beaks - we will get yellow chickens. Easter tray for eggs - ready!
Watch the video on how to make a very impressive Easter “chicken in an egg” craft:
For children in the junior and middle groups of kindergarten, a craft made from salt dough “Hatched Chicken” is suitable. The slightly colored dough is very popular with children and is completely safe, even for the smallest creators.
An adorable Easter chick can be made from paper rings or a cut cardboard roll.
Easter crafts made from threads
The kids will be delighted with this Easter craft made from threads. The easiest way to make a thread craft is to make it from pompoms. You can see how to make a pompom in our article ““. Once you master the technique of making pompoms, you can make an Easter-themed craft, such as a little yellow chicken.
Another option for making an Easter pom pom craft is to make it using a small balloon. We wrap it tightly enough with thick threads and cover the threads with glue. After the glue has dried and the threads have become dense, carefully pierce the ball and remove it. We should still have the frame of their threads - this is the future body of the Easter chicken.
Glue the eyes, nose and legs to the frame. Easter thread craft - ready!
If you use floss threads and small balloons as a base, you can make a very impressive Easter composition from openwork eggs.
The eggs can be hung with a string, then we will get unusual Easter pendants.
DIY Easter drawings
Crafts for Easter in kindergarten can be done using a combination of drawing and appliqué techniques. We create a three-dimensional Easter basket in a very interesting way: we make cuts on the main sheet into which we insert strips of corrugated cardboard.
Teachers who are decorating an Easter corner in a kindergarten may find the Easter drawing “chicken in a clearing” useful.
For school we offer a drawing with Easter cakes in a basket. First we make a pencil sketch.
We color the basket, Easter cakes, eggs and bow. Draw out the outlines on the basket with a marker.
Paint the chicken with yellow paint. We draw him brown legs.
We highlight the bow, eggs, basket and Easter cakes with color. We wait until the paint dries. We highlight the basket and bow along the outline with a marker. Spread the top white part of the Easter cakes with glue and cover with sprinkles. Drawing for Easter - ready!
Drawing "Easter egg"
For Easter you can draw a beautiful Easter egg. The main plot of the drawing. may become symbols of spring - birds and flowers. And patterns located on horizontal lines are convenient for coloring. First we make a pencil sketch.
Drawing "egg" in pencil
Then we paint the egg with paints.
Drawing "Easter egg"
Look at the video “how to draw an Easter egg”:
This Easter drawing reflects all the symbols of Easter - the church, basket, Easter cake, eggs, spring twigs and flowers.
A charming Easter basket with Easter can be made from ordinary plasticine. First we make a concave Easter basket. We sculpt a thin flagellum from plasticine.
Fold the flagellum in half and twist it.
Carefully glue the flagellum along the edge of the basket. We will get a very interesting wicker basket effect.
Roll a thick yellow sausage out of plasticine.
We cut the sausage into two parts - this is the future basis for the Easter cakes. On each base we place a white round cake - “glaze”.
Easter cakes with “glaze”
For this craft we will need small real twigs.
We glue elongated gray lumps of plasticine onto the branches - we will get a very realistic willow. We put Easter cakes and willow branches in the basket, and complement the composition with colored eggs.
Sprinkle the cakes with food powder. Plasticine Easter craft - ready!
Very delicate Easter egg pendants can be made from salt dough.
Easter chick made from ribbons and felt
A very cute Easter chick can be made from ribbons and felt. We cut the ribbon into squares and fold it according to the pattern, fixing the workpiece with glue. The technique of making crafts from small pieces of ribbon is called kanzashi.
Glue the lower green part of the flower from the blanks. Using the same technique, we glue together the purple blanks for the flower itself. We glue them together. Place a bead in the center. Putting the composition together.
Glue yellow felt onto the cardboard base. We make chicken preparations from yellow ribbons.
Glue the tuft and wings from yellow ribbons to the base. Glue on the beady eyes and beak. All that remains is to decorate the chicken with a flower and a bow. We have a very impressive Easter souvenir!
The most famous and favorite craft for Easter is a wreath. It can be made as a decoration for a hall or room. The base of the wreath is made from branches that are connected to each other using tape.
We wrap the wreath with a garland of artificial flowers and greenery. We fix the garland using double-sided tape.
Decorate the wreath with ribbons. We paint plastic eggs with bright Easter patterns and secure them to the wreath with double-sided tape. The final touch to the Easter wreath is fluffy chickens.
Easter wreaths made from branches can be decorated with feathers, flowers and willows.
Do-it-yourself willow branches from cotton wool
A craft that will be very useful to you for Easter is willow branches. With these branches we can decorate an Easter wreath or make a luxurious Easter bouquet. We dilute the starch with hot water.
We form future willows from cotton wool and starch. We color the willows gray. Don’t get carried away with coloring; a light and uneven application will give the willows a natural look.
Glue the colored cotton balls to a real branch using a glue gun. On the bottom side under each willow we glue a “pocket” made of felt.
Our willows are ready! All that remains is to form a spring Easter bouquet!
DIY Easter tree
Since the bright holiday of Easter symbolizes the blossoming of a new life, in some countries a tradition has appeared to decorate the Easter tree. After all, it is the tree that personifies nature and the ability to be reborn after a long winter. We take the sawed testicles and carefully pierce them on two opposite sides. Their contents can be blown out using a straw.
Coloring the eggs. Using a stick, insert the ribbon into them.
We tie the ribbon on one side with a bow. Leave a loop on the other side. Easter eggs are ready. All that remains is to make the base of the craft - the tree itself. We make it from colored twigs tied together. Pour plaster into a small container and insert the branches into it. All that remains is to hang the eggs on a tree. Our Easter tree is ready!
DIY Easter tree (video):
Felt chicken Easter basket
A very beautiful Easter basket “Chicken” is made from felt. We cut out the chicken parts according to the model in the photo.
We sew the parts together. Leave the edges free at the bottom and top. The bottom will be sewn into the bottom. We will place the eggs in the upper part.
Sew on the bottom piece.
Place eggs in an Easter basket.
You can decorate your Easter composition with a yellow chicken. It is very easy to sew it from felt. We cut out 2 oval parts for the body from felt and sew them together, not forgetting to stuff them with padding poly (you can immediately sew a tuft between the body parts). Sew on the wings. Glue on the factory eyes and beak. Easter chicken with felt chicken - ready!
An interesting Easter idea - DIY soap in the shape of chickens for Easter!
A very beautiful Easter basket craft is made from pasta. To make it, we need to inflate a small balloon and paste it with pasta in the shape of a “horn”.
Leave the hole in the front part unpasted. We color the pasta and decorate the hole with pasta in the shape of a “bow”.
The Easter stand will be the best decoration of the Easter exhibition.
Happy Easter to you and your children!

A week before Easter
The camel is the first to bloom!
Since ancient times, there has been a belief that a tree that blooms and is full of strength can convey health, strength, and beauty to everyone who touches it. And the willow, especially the catkins, the blossoming buds were considered healing, endowed with special powers. Therefore, there was a custom to use willow branches to drive cattle out for their first grazing in the spring. On Palm Sunday, grandmothers baked willow cones into bread and fed them to the cattle so that they would not get sick. Little children were playfully lashed with willow branches, saying: “As the willow grows, so do you grow.” And those who were older were whipped harder, but not painfully, saying: “Whip the willow, hit without tears” or “We hit to be healthy.” Let me give you guys health, strength and beauty with these branches.

We'll tell you in a new way.

And even the breeze helps me.
There are six Easter eggs in the basket.
Easter cake and cheese, of course, are also available.
Goes backstage.
The Gray Wolf comes out to the music.
Gray Wolf: Here I am! How hungry and angry I am!
And I didn’t find a poppy dewdrop
Since the evening my stomach has let me down.
I got up - it was not yet dawn,
And I don’t understand why nature is happy?
Fill your belly quickly - that's what you need
And... here comes Red Hat.
S. The wolf goes backstage. At this time Little Red Riding Hood comes out,
A wolf follows her:
Gray Wolf: Yes, there’s also a basket, what’s in it?
I wish it tasted better.
Could you give me a treat?
I'm hungry, just a wild animal!
I won't harm you, believe me!
Little Red Riding Hood shares with the wolf.
Certainly cute!
After all, giving is healthier for the soul,
What to take.
"The wolf takes the egg, thanks Little Red Riding Hood."
The chick flies out.
Little Red Riding Hood: Look, look here quickly!
Who are you? Are you a chick? Fell out of the nest?
Do you want to eat, do you open your mouth?
We'll feed you, that's what we have, and that's it.
Eat, darling, and make sure you don’t whine.
After all, you are eating Easter cake.
Chick: Thank you, I'm not crying!
A tear has dried up.
And my eyes filled with joy.
Take me on a good journey.
Celebrate Easter with you!
Educator: The basket is emptying, it has become lighter
There was little food left in it.
But so much kindness has increased,
That the first flowers bloomed.
Dance of flowers.
First flower: We saw: the bunnies are hungry.
Second flower: Starlings were still flying these days
From distant countries. They are very tired
And hunger is probably eating them away too.
Third flower: And here’s another kitten that got lost
And he appeared on this path.
“Kitten” comes out to the music
Kitten: It’s bad for me to be alone without my mother,
Probably no one needs me.
Little Red Riding Hood: Here, Kitten, take the cheese
Eat, satisfy your hunger!
Kitten: Thank you. Now with friends, it’s satisfying and not scary.
I'm not alone, and this is very important.
Educator: Thank you, Little Red Riding Hood, for your kindness.
You didn’t forget anyone, you took pity on everyone and treated them.
We showed you a fairy tale, the fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it, a good lesson for all of us.
