Good afternoon, dear readers! Today we have an interesting and important topic on the creative development of children. Decorating fine art corners is also an art. There is no doubt that the majority of preschoolers love to draw. This is how they discover and explore the world, learn new things. You can familiarize yourself with the corresponding useful publication by the author N.G. Panteleeva. Kids enjoy drawing and being creative in art classes. Some of the children like to look at albums with paintings by artists or folk crafts. The development of aesthetic taste and creativity is undoubtedly the most important point in education.
Design of fine art corners according to modern standards (FSES)
Respected educators can become wonderful assistants in the knowledge of beauty. An arts and crafts area must be included in the group for the development of creative activity in children. And the bright and colorful design of the fine arts corner will attract children to creativity faster. I would immediately like to recommend a series by I. Lykova on creative activities in the garden. I would like to recommend the next publication , as well as this manual . For the older group, good examples of work are also given to help.
It must be remembered that according to the standard, when creating a corner, a group passport will be required. It is stored directly in the documents of the teacher or in the activity area in the group. The passport includes a description of the group, its number, the age of the children, the purpose of its creation, and the assigned tasks. A list of furniture, tools and materials must also be indicated. It is necessary to mention the number and function of posters, diagrams and other visual materials.
Modern standards of the Federal State Educational Standard dictate certain conditions so that the design of the corners of the fine art is competent. It must meet hygiene requirements. The place where the corner items are located should be well lit. It is advisable to place it near a window. Also, chairs and tables should correspond to the growth characteristics of each age group. The choice of equipment and tools should meet the needs of children.
The fact is that each age group has a certain uniqueness. And the design of the corners of the fine art should be age-appropriate. For example, children in the nursery group are going through a process of adaptation. In this regard, teachers do not need to regularly change the design of the corner. There is no need for kids to be distracted by new objects. A familiar environment without frequent innovations contributes to a softer and faster adaptation for the child.
As for the middle and older groups, the color scheme and information about art are expanding more actively. The displays in the corner can be changed more often, presenting more complex objects. It is proposed to use scissors in work under the supervision of a teacher. It is also possible to use materials such as coal and sanguine in creativity. I recommend reading this software and methodological complex .
How to organize a corner for artistic and aesthetic development
“How to organize a corner for artistic and aesthetic development”
Consultation for preschool teachers
The modern system of preschool education tells us about the need to introduce new forms and methods of work. The implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard is aimed at psychological and pedagogical support for positive socialization and individualization, the development of children’s personality and the implementation of an individual approach to each child.
One of the most important factors in the artistic and aesthetic development of a child in a preschool educational institution is the subject-spatial developmental environment. It is important for the development of the child, for creating aesthetic, emotional and psychological comfort in the institution. According to the Federal State Educational Standard for preschool education, the artistic and aesthetic development of preschool children involves the development of the prerequisites for the value-semantic perception and understanding of works of art, the natural world, the perception of music, fiction, folklore, and the implementation of independent activities of children.
The subject-spatial environment, in this case, acts not only as a condition for the creative self-development of the child’s personality, but also as an indicator of the teacher’s professional creativity, since its formation requires the teacher’s imagination and various methods of creation.
Artistic and aesthetic education is implemented by different types of art and artistic and aesthetic activities. It is aimed at developing a child’s love for beauty, enriching his spiritual world, developing perception, figurative ideas, imagination, aesthetic feelings, aesthetic attitude to the surrounding reality, as well as introducing art as an integral part of spiritual and material culture, an aesthetic means formation and development of the child’s personality.
A developing subject-spatial environment provides the opportunity for communication and joint activities of children and adults; according to the Federal State Educational Standard, it must be content-rich, transformable, multifunctional, variable, accessible and safe.
For comprehensive development, various activity centers for children are used.
Theater corner: an important object of the subject-development environment, since it is theatrical activities that help to adapt, unite the group, and unite children with an interesting idea. The educational possibilities of theatrical activities are wide. By participating in it, children get acquainted with the world around them in all its diversity through images, colors, sounds; Speech develops and improves, the sound culture of speech and its intonation structure are activated, fulfilling its corresponding role, the child inevitably practices clear, clear expression. The theater center needs to include different objects.
Aesthetics, beauty and creative change
We introduce beauty from an early age. The Fine Art corner should be not only practical, but also beautiful. It needs to be designed so that preschoolers can admire its appearance. That is, they learn to appreciate beauty and acquire the ability to enjoy it. The inclusion of children in the design of toys and children's works also plays a big role. This is how we begin to develop “childish” design in children.
Of course, if the objects in the corner do not change for a long time, the children will begin to lose interest. From time to time, as you study a new topic, you need to change and add materials. Also, conditions for children’s creativity must be created in the corner. Children should have the opportunity to sit next to a corner, color a picture or look at an album with creative works.
Many functions in unison
Considering that the group is a small room, you need to make the most of every meter. And the playing area can be changed depending on the initial circumstances. The tools and materials in this case should be easily modified for a new game presentation. You can also sometimes combine zones with similar themes. Let’s say that an “artist’s workshop” and a puppet theater coexist well.
Also, the main argument of the corner is its safety. Furniture, toys, materials must be of high quality and harmless. More dangerous items (sharp, cutting) should be stored in closed containers. Carrying out creative activities using tools should be carried out under the supervision of a teacher.
And another important point, of course, is to take into account the interests of girls and boys. Let there be different objects in the corner that are attractive separately for boys and girls. For example, these will be coloring pages with dolls, butterflies and coloring pages with robots and cars.
Unique design of the corner and didactic games for the art corner
For example, when taking into account the age of younger preschoolers, attention should be paid to the peculiarities of their perception. For example, a small number of flowers is enough for such kids. These are blue, red, green, yellow, black. At first, there may be pencils and markers in the corner. Then, as the kids get older, you can add other materials. Such as wax crayons, watercolors, charcoal. Or, for example, little pupils mastered drawing with cotton swabs. Then you can put them in the art corner.
A didactic game for any age group plays an equally important role in education. Games of this nature develop preschoolers’ independence in problem solving and curiosity. Most importantly, they contribute to the ability to play in a team. Another interesting point for the teacher is that you can organize a stand for children’s work. Here children can hang their drawing or applique. Parents will also be very pleased to see the work of their children. I invite you to get acquainted with the publication , which contains examples of creative work with children.

Recommendations for decorating a fine arts corner in the junior group of kindergarten
Creating a fine arts corner in a kindergarten group creates a favorable environment for children’s creative activity and promotes the emergence and development of independent artistic activity in preschool children.
The modern design of a fine arts corner in a kindergarten may consist of an exhibition of children's drawings in the locker room and a corner with materials, visual aids, colorful drawings and thematic attributes directly in the group.
The most important thing is that the art activity corner, the developmental environment in the kindergarten, should be located in a clear, optimal, convenient, accessible place for children. It is important that children feel like owners of toys and have free access to artistic and creative materials.
A prerequisite is a high level of design and aesthetics, as well as flexible and expanded use of the organized space of the corner. In order to introduce parents to the creativity of their children, exhibitions of children's works should be arranged in the locker room or in close proximity to the exit from the group room. Design options can be very diverse. For example, you can offer an option where crafts are displayed on a stand, perhaps with paths made of fishing line, on which drawings are hung using paper clips and other improvised materials.
Art corners in kindergarten help create optimal conditions in the group for the development of visual activity, independence and creative activity of children. Children get the opportunity to express themselves in various types of artistic and design activities, get acquainted with the world around them, learn the properties of objects, colors, correlate the concepts “object-color”, etc.
It is recommended that in the corner there should be a table with a lid or an easel, all kinds of paints, brushes, paper of different formats and textures, sponges, rags for hands and hands, paint palettes, jars for water, aprons, materials for modeling, in general everything, which will contribute to the artistic development of the child. If possible, it is better to place materials in a closet or special bedside table.
For clarity, reproductions, paintings, portraits of artists, arts and crafts, and folk art (haze, Gzhel, Khokhloma) should also be placed in the corner for clarity. There it is also necessary to place various didactic games to introduce children to various directions and genres - still life, portrait, landscape; with painting, graphics, decorative and applied arts, architecture; with flowers and their shades. In the corner of artistic manual labor, it is important to place samples of fabrics, seams, and other materials for children to learn about their surroundings.
Another great suggestion is if there is a place in a corner or nearby where children can optionally watch filmstrips, videos, listen to music, or see how different types of art are connected.
The teacher needs to introduce children to the corner of fine arts:
1. Tell about its structure and direct purpose,
2. Teach children to look at pictures, creative materials and other attributes only there;
3. Tell the children the rules to follow regarding the iso-corner:
- take albums, reproductions, portraits only with clean hands;
- leaf through carefully;
- do not tear, crush, or use for games;
- after looking, always put the book or picture back in its place.
Before you start decorating, think about what you will place and where, what components you cannot do without. Achieve aesthetics and relevance in design. So, the main and important conditions for the design of iso-corners for all kindergarten groups are:
1. Optimal location of the visual arts area: accessibility, aesthetics, mobility, safety;
2. Using notes of a “child’s hand” in design;
3. Availability of works of art, compliance with age requirements;
4. Availability of visual material: variety, age requirements, accessibility;
5. Availability of equipment for drawing, modeling, appliqué;
6. Don’t neglect working with color and lines;
7. Use of various techniques of visual creativity, compositions;
8. Presence of folk arts and crafts;
9. Demonstration of various genres of painting, clay samples; artistic handicrafts;
10 Organization of work with children outside the area of artistic and aesthetic development - long-term plans.
The design of the corner may be different for each teacher. The main thing is an individual approach, clarity, and compliance with age norms. The rest depends on the creativity and imagination of the preschool teacher.
Good luck!
Visual materials in the fine arts area
Visual materials play an important role in the corner. That is, these can be reproductions of famous artists, portraits of the authors themselves. It is also recommended to post materials on applied arts. For example, these will be albums on the themes “Khokhloma” or “Gzhel”. It is good to replenish the area of fine art materials that were studied in classes with children.
It is recommended to add several toys from folk crafts to the design of the fine art corners. For example, it will be a matryoshka doll and a carved horse. Undoubtedly, postcards, perhaps dedicated to passing holidays, will be a good decoration for the Fine Art corner. Such as March 8, Victory Day, New Year, etc.
Requirements for the corner of fine art activities in accordance with the Federal State Educational Standards of preschool education
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE CORNER OF ART ACTIVITIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH FSES DOO
Prepared by:
teacher of MBU D/S No. 139 “Oblachko”
Kuritsyna T.I.
Thematic zones in the group are a prerequisite for the harmonious all-round development of preschoolers. The richness of their content, together with suitable design, will allow children to gain a great experience during their stay in kindergarten. One of the favorite activities of both younger and older preschoolers is drawing, which contributes to the creative development of preschoolers. And the child will be able to find a suitable activity in the art corner, which the teacher will equip specifically for this purpose.
The purpose of this
corner of visual arts
is to develop children’s creative potential, develop interest in artistic activities, form aesthetic perception, imagination, artistic and creative abilities, independence, and activity.
Requirements for the creation and design of an art corner
According to the modern educational standard (FSES), the design of the fine art zone in a group must meet the following requirements.
- Compliance with sanitary and hygienic requirements.
The corner is located in a well-lit place (near the window). Furniture must be appropriate for the height of children
- Equipment meets the needs of this age
. After all, each age category is unique. For example, younger preschoolers are in the process of adaptation, so the teacher does not need to change the design often. Children's attention should not be distracted by unnecessary details. In addition, the art corner should contribute to the development of children's sensory skills. At an older age, conditions for self-expression are more important. Materials for creativity and aesthetic development (for example, picture albums) should be freely available to preschoolers so that they feel like “masters” in the group.
- High aesthetics
. A good corner attracts children's attention with its beautiful design. The guys should feel comfortable there and experience aesthetic pleasure. “Children’s” design is important - the inclusion of game characters (pictures and dolls) and creative works of students in the design.
- Multifunctionality.
The gaming environment can be modified depending on the learning situation and combined with other zones. After all, groups are not very large rooms, so every meter must be used rationally. Equipment and materials must be easily transformed to create a new game. For example, with the help of the Fine Arts corner, you can organize a role-playing game “In the artist’s workshop” (combined with the theatrical corner).
- Variability.
The equipment of the zone changes periodically: new material for creativity is added, children's demonstration works and design elements are updated. In addition, conditions should be created in the corner for individual (for example, drawing, coloring pictures) and collective activities (looking at albums, didactic games).
- Safety and high quality of materials
used in creating the zone.
This applies to both furniture and means for directly equipping the corner (for example, dangerous items should be stored in boxes with a lid). - Compliance with the gender principle.
As you know, boys and girls have their own preferences. The teacher should take this point into account when selecting material in the art corner (in particular, offer coloring pages with cars, airplanes, robots and princesses, flowers, butterflies, etc.)
Contents of the ISO corner in the group
The most important component of the art zone in a group is its capacity.
First of all, these are directly materials for creativity, both traditional and non-traditional
- Paper of various textures and formats (A3, A4, A5).
- Paper tinted in warm and cool tones, two-color (blue top of the sheet is the sky and green is the grass).
- Colored pencils, wax crayons, felt-tip pens, gel pens, markers, charcoal, sanguine.
- Gouache and watercolor paints, brushes of different thicknesses, palettes, sippy cups, brush stands.
- Small magnetic drawing boards.
- Natural material for decorating designs (cones, acorns, seeds, sawdust, etc.).
- Devices and tools for drawing in non-traditional techniques (foam rubber, cotton swabs, toothbrushes, stamps, cocktail straws, etc.).
- Coloring books of various subjects, stencils depicting animals, plants, fruits, vegetables, cars, etc.
- Aprons and sleeves for preschoolers.
When filling the corner with materials, the age of the students must be taken into account.
So, at a younger age, colored pencils and felt-tip pens of primary colors are enough: black, red, yellow, blue and green. Further, the color range expands as children grow older. New materials are added as they are mastered (for example, watercolors, sanguine and charcoal in the older group). The same applies to materials for non-traditional art techniques (for example, after students in the junior group have mastered drawing with cotton swabs in class, the teacher places them in the art area).
are also of great importance in the art corner .
That is, in the corner there should be
- Reproductions of paintings by famous artists, demonstrating various genres (landscape, portrait, still life), portraits of painters.
- Albums on decorative and applied arts (“Gzhel”, “Khokhloma”, “Haze”, etc.). If a given topic was discussed in class, additional material on it is provided.
- Samples of toys and handicrafts. For children of primary preschool age
– 2 – 3 types of folk toys (Bogorodsk toy, Semenov and other nesting dolls, Gorodets carved toy (horses), etc.).
For children of middle and senior preschool age,
3–4 types of works of folk art are selected (Dymkovo clay toy, works by Khokhloma and Gorodets masters, etc.). - Folder with the best children's works.
- Album with works in non-traditional visual techniques.
- Collections of beautiful cards on various topics: New Year, Eighth of March, Victory Day, Cosmonautics Day. Children can use them as samples to create drawings and posters.
- Step-by-step diagrams for drawing popular objects (a person in different poses, a cat, a dog, a horse and other animals, birds, flowers).
- Posters on the topic of visual arts.
An integral part of the fine arts corner are didactic games of this type.
.
For younger preschoolers, these are simple guides to reinforce primary colors. The child’s task is to determine which colors are used in each specific drawing. Games like “Decorate Matryoshka’s sundress” are also suitable for kids: you need to match the sundress and flowers by color
In the middle group, games of the previous age become more complex and it is already possible to introduce games for the development of compositional skills and games in decorative and applied arts. At first they are simple, for example, “Place the candies in the vases.” Children must outwardly learn to distinguish products from different crafts from each other (match candies and vases)
In older preschool age, these games become more complex. For example, in arts and crafts games, the goal is to deepen knowledge. Children are invited to use cards to recreate the sequence of performing elements of folk painting. The manual may be aimed at a more detailed study of a specific painting, for example, Khokhloma. In addition, games are added to consolidate knowledge about painting genres; about perspective, horizon line, distance and approach of objects, foreground and background of the picture.
Another important component (although not obligatory) of the art corner in the group is a stand for children’s work.
The child can hang his drawing there so that the teacher and other children can admire it.
An art corner organized in this way in a group will help preschoolers fully develop their artistic abilities, consolidate the material covered in class, and realize their own fantasies. The main thing is that materials and visual aids are always freely available. The bright and original design of this area is also important: after all, artistic taste needs to be developed from a very early age.
Composition of the art corner for junior, middle and senior groups
The composition of the zone will change as preschoolers mature. For the youngest, you can focus on the following materials. For furniture, a table with a lid, a chair according to age, and a magnetic board are recommended. You also need paper of different textures, cardboard, stickers, and whatman paper. Cups of pencils, crayons, and felt-tip pens are welcome. You will need aprons, trays, oilcloth tablecloths.
In the corner you can hang a calendar with reproductions of various paintings by famous artists. Every month the picture will change. You can also hang illustrations of different genres: portrait, landscape, still life. It is good to arrange, as mentioned above, templates and coloring pages for children on different topics. Albums made from children's drawings are also useful for children's attention.
Ingredient materials for the junior group corner:
- Colored pencils (primary colors are sufficient);
- Paper white and colored;

- Didactic games.
I would immediately recommend the useful guide “Sensory development of children 2-3 years old. Color. Form. Size. Didactic games and exercises for organizing joint activities between the teacher and young children. Federal State Educational Standards DO " .
Components for the corner of the middle group:
- Colored pencils in a wider range than in the younger group;

"Creativity Corner"
The subject-development environment is organized so that every child has the opportunity to freely do what they love. Placing equipment by sectors (development centers) allows children to unite in subgroups based on common interests. A rich subject-developmental and educational environment becomes the basis for organizing an exciting, meaningful life and all-round development of each child. The developing subject environment is the main means of shaping the child’s personality and is the source of his knowledge and social experience.
When creating a “creativity corner” the following tasks are solved:
- Create an atmosphere of emotional comfort
- Create conditions for creative self-expression
- Create conditions for the manifestation of children’s cognitive activity
- Create favorable conditions for perception and contemplation, draw children’s attention to the beauty of nature, painting, arts and crafts, book illustrations, music
A “creativity corner” in the senior group can be created under the motto “Feel – Cognize – Create.” It presents:
Materials for artistic and aesthetic activities, their variety:
- Paints (watercolor, gouache), plasticine, pencils, wax crayons, colored paper of various formats and textures, cardboard, brushes (squirrel or kolinsky) thin, medium and thick; rags for hands and hands, paint palettes, aprons, sippy cups for water, modeling materials.
- Easel
- Literature on art, postcards and albums for viewing. Reproductions, paintings, portraits of artists, small sculptures, works of decorative and applied art (haze, Gzhel, Khokhloma and others).
- Various didactic games for familiarization with: genres - still life, portrait, landscape; with painting, graphics, decorative and applied arts, architecture; with flowers and their shades.
- Natural and waste material
- Musical instruments, toys, technical equipment
- Games and attributes for theatrical performance. These are not only materials characteristic of the theater (screens, dolls, costumes, and so on), but also some materials for familiarization with the environment, fiction. There are also “theatres” and characters made by the children themselves during art classes. Theatricalization includes: table theater, sets of dolls, costumes, books, materials for decorations.
Materials for educational activities
- Nature calendars, collections
- Sensory Education Materials
- Visual material, games, aids to familiarize yourself with the world around you
- Fiction and encyclopedic literature
- Didactic and educational games
- Educational games, technical devices and toys, models, items for experimental research work - magnets, magnifying glasses, springs, scales, beakers, etc.; a large selection of natural materials for studying, experimenting, and making collections
- Table for experimenting with water and sand
The “Creativity Corner” is located in a well-lit and accessible place, where students in their free time draw, sculpt, do appliqué work, explore, and transform themselves into fairy tale heroes. It is a place for children's self-development. The group in the “Creativity Corner” combines various types of activities: drawing, modeling, familiarization with musical instruments, theatrical performances, research and experimental activities, work with natural materials, and familiarization with literature.
The “Creativity Corner” is always an actively working area that helps preschoolers develop an interest in making their own crafts, inventing fairy tales and stories, and studying science.
The creativity corner in kindergarten allows you to create optimal conditions in the group for the development of visual activity, independence and creative activity of children. Children get the opportunity to express themselves in various types of artistic and design activities, get acquainted with the world around them, and learn the properties of objects.
Main differences by age group
Children of the younger age group show the greatest interest in drawing. To acquire drawing skills, it is recommended to purchase wax boards and appropriate dry-erase markers. You can also use rolls of wallpaper. They can be mounted on a wall or table. Kids also love to draw with their fingers and palms. For this it is better to use special paints.
For middle preschool age, it is better to organize activities in micro groups of 2-4 children. Successful introduction at this age occurs with modeling, design, and appliqué. You can also begin to introduce children to non-traditional creative techniques. For example, drawing with cotton swabs, printing with foam rubber, candles, corks, drawing with sand, collage. You can use the advice from the book by Morozova D.V.
Older preschoolers are already interested in even more diverse creative and design techniques. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the publication “Design in kindergarten. Senior group. Notes. Federal State Educational Standard" . Crafts and homemade designs become more complex due to the experience gained in new forms.
Please pay attention to the publication "Crafts for kindergarten" . It is important at this age to cultivate greater independence and self-organization. You can use the following topics: blotography, plasticineography, imprinting with crumpled paper, spraying, drawing with salt. In the preparatory group, more complex experiments can be carried out. For example, drawing on the damp surface of a leaf, blowing droplets across the leaf area.
