Top. White or light yellow shirt. It is better if the sleeves are elasticized and gathered, that is, the shirt and its sleeves are fuller.

Bottom. Wide, high-waisted harem pants with elastic (Fig. 1). In order for the trousers to hold, straps are sewn to them from the fabric from which the trousers themselves are sewn. The width of the straps is 1-1.5 cm.

“Grass” is sewn onto the bottom of the trousers. To do this, cut the green fabric into cloves (Fig. 2), and then sew the trousers to the edge.

If the fabric is thin, then it must first be starched. So that not all “blades of grass” “fall off” from the bottom of the trousers in the same way, some can be attached to the fabric of the trousers with several stitches (some at the very top, some in the middle, etc.).

On foot. Brown or greenish shoes.

On the head. A hat made as follows (Fig. 3). An oval is cut out of thick foam rubber. In its middle there is a hole the size of the child's head. To make the edge of the hole tighter and not tear, a braid is sewn to it (over the edge on the arms), to which the hat strings are attached. The top of the hat (also an oval) is cut out of thick fabric, and its dimensions should be slightly larger than the dimensions of the foam oval. It is better to place thin foam rubber under thin fabric. The fabric is sewn to the foam rubber around the entire circumference of the arms.

Top of the cap- all shades of brown. The underparts are white or slightly yellowish.

Hat It is done either with ribbons so that you can tie them under the chin, or with an elastic band (underwear or hat).

You can place and strengthen a ladybug on the hat (Fig. 4).

To make a ladybug you need to cut out a circle with a diameter of 8-10 cm from red fabric, put a piece of cotton wool in the middle (Fig. 4a), and on top - an oval made of cardboard (Fig. 46). Gather the fabric along the edge with a thread (Fig. 4c) and pull it off. Distribute the assemblies evenly. Tighten the hole again and secure it (Fig. 4d). This is the bottom of a ladybug. The legs and antennae are also sewn here (Fig. 4d). Legs - 3 pieces of wire, curved at the ends. The antennae are made of thinner wire. Draw the ladybug's body lengthwise with a thick black thread. Draw circles on the back with a marker and sew two beads on the front - eyes (Fig. 4e).

Props. You can give the child a green leaf with a petiole in his hand (see the chapter “Making flowers and leaves”).
