A paper rat is not only a way to keep a child occupied, but also a cute and original present, which the young creator can then give to his grandparents for the New Year 2020. After all, they are usually very pleased with such gif.webpts.
We make from colored paper
Colored paper for children gives a lot of creativity. You can make New Year's applications, volumetric or flat toys from it. In the process of work, you only need:
- paper;
- scissors;
- glue.
To make the simplest rat, you need a circle, a heart, and a long strip cut out of colored paper. Glue the strip (tail) and heart (muzzle) to the circle (body), bending the rounded parts to make ears. After that, it remains only to draw the eyes and nose.
Rat made of cardboard
You can make a rat out of colored cardboard using the same patterns used for colored paper. In this case, the craft will turn out to be denser. But the unsightly gray corrugated cardboard from which the boxes are made can be transformed into a cute rat. For this you will need:
- corrugated board;
- scissors;
- thick thread;
- beads;
- needle.
How to do:
- Cut out circles of different diameters and a detail from cardboard, from three circles (part of the muzzle and ears).
- Gather the parts together by piercing them in the center with a thick needle and thread.
- Fix the edges of the thread with beads or knots, leaving a tail.
Vytynanka
Increasingly, on the windows of houses you can find not lonely snowflakes, but whole New Year's compositions with Santa Claus, snowmen and the symbol of the year. To make openwork New Year's earthenware, you will need:
- paper;
- self-standing rug for breadboard cutting (can be replaced with a sheet of fiberboard or a kitchen board);
- masking tape;
- scissors;
- knife for breadboard cutting or clerical.
Sequence of work:
- Print the templates you like on paper.
- Secure the pattern to the rug or board with masking tape.
- Carefully cut out the picture with a knife.
- Cut the outer contour with scissors.
It is better to start cutting with the smallest details, which will require more patience and perseverance, moving from the center to the edges.

Rat box and a diagram to it
The main distinguishing feature of the symbol of 2020 is thrift. If you trust her with something, she will keep it. So, why not entrust a rat with a present for a loved one? Ideally, in this case, a rat-shaped box is suitable, in which you can put a New Year's gif.webpt.
It is not at all difficult to make such a gif.webpt wrapping with your own hands, you just need to cut out a template of a suitable size and fold it according to the scheme. You can supplement the finished craft with a nose and eyes, making the box more alive.
The gif.webpt box can be not only in the form of a rat, but also a piece of cheese. It folds a little differently, and for greater naturalness, you can make round holes in it.


Quilling
Quilling is an art that allows you to create flat or voluminous compositions from thin strips of paper twisted into spirals. To create crafts using this technique, you will need:
- strips of paper;
- PVA glue;
- scissors;
- tweezers;
- fork for curling paper;
- ruler-template with round holes, for adjusting the diameter of the spirals.
Making a rat in the form of a panel will be more difficult for beginners, since the spirals will need to be twisted, bent and glued in a certain way for a beautiful picture. But the volumetric composition in the idea of a piece of cheese and a mouse looking out of it will be much easier, since the strips will just need to be twisted into tight or not very spirals.
In addition to the symbol of the year, you can make snowflakes using the quilling technique or quilling balls for the Christmas tree.
Origami rat
Origami is the folding of paper figures without the use of scissors and glue. This type of applied art originated in Japan in 610 AD, where the secret of paper production came to this period. By folding the figure, a person puts into it a part of his energy, will, desires and feelings, which can then be presented as a present to a dear person.
There is a belief that a thousand origami cranes are able to make a wish come true. To check it, you will have to work hard, but a rat folded according to the above schemes, if it does not fulfill its desire, will delight and decorate the interior.
As you can see, the paper rat can be made in different ways, but even for complex techniques, you can pick up crafts that will be within the power of children of different ages.
