Geography is one of the most important and difficult to understand sciences. To simplify the process of studying it, you can make a globe yourself. To do this you will need a small amount of materials and some free time. It's best to try to make a real globe out of paper and paints. In this case, the finished product will be light in weight and will fit well into the interior of the room.
Huge globe made using papier-mâché technique
You will need: a fitness ball, PVA construction glue, film, rope, paper, newspapers, scissors, pencil, brushes and paints.
Master Class
- Wrap the fitness ball in film and tie a loop for further hanging.
- Wrap the ball with rope.
- Hang the ball to make it easier to work with.
- Cut the newspaper into pieces, dip the paper in water, then attach it to the ball.
- Cover the ball with pieces of newspaper in several layers.
- Cover the ball with pieces of white sheets in several layers and wait until dry.
- Draw the outlines of the continents and oceans with a pencil.
- Paint the globe with paints and wait until it dries.
- Deflate the ball through the top hole and remove it along with the film.
- Cover the hole and outline it.
A huge globe made using papier-mâché technique is ready!
Working with plasticine
From this plastic material you can make any figure with your own hands, including a globe. Moreover, together with a young researcher, you can sculpt a model of the Earth with its internal structure - core, mantle, crust.
To work, you will need a package of plasticine with at least 6 colors:
- yellow;
- orange;
- red;
- black,
- blue or blue;
- green.
In addition, you need to prepare a board, a plastic knife, which is sold along with the material, a pencil, and thin paper (tracing paper).
We start sculpting a globe for children by forming the core. The base will be a yellow ball. We wrap it in a “cake” made of orange plasticine, then in a “cake” made of red material. The core of the Earth model is ready - the inner and outer core, the mantle.
The next layer is the earth's crust made of black plasticine. Then we cover the base with “oceans” - blue or blue plasticine. The layer must be perfectly even.
You can start designing the continents. To do this, you will need a world map of the appropriate size for the ball, translated onto tracing paper or newsprint.
It is not necessary to draw small islands on it; it is enough to indicate the continents.
We cover the “bodies” of the continents with green plasticine and carefully cut them out with scissors and stick them together with the paper base on the blue layer.
You can add realism by highlighting deserts, mountains, and glaciers on the continents with the appropriate color - brown, yellow, white.
For children over 8 years old, a different manufacturing technique is suitable - without cores and mantle, or the earth's crust. Blue plasticine is placed in an even layer on the base (a ball of foam plastic or other material), continents are designated - the craft is ready.
The final stage of work is creating the stand.
- We fashion 4 parts - a flat cake, a cone-shaped stand and two balls.
- We “place” the cone on the flatbread. We attach the balls to the globe with a toothpick.
- We install the craft on a stand taking into account the slope of the planet.
- We form a “rim” - bend the wire in an arc, cover it with plasticine to match the stand and secure it with pieces of a toothpick.
Beaded globe box
You will need: a wooden blank - an opening ball with a stand, a simple pencil, beads - blue, light pink and gold, thick wire, thin fishing line, instant glue, acrylic varnish, glitter, scissors, a screwdriver with a thin drill, a hammer, acrylic paints and a brush.
Master Class
- Draw the outlines of the continents on the ball.
- Weave a belt into 2 beads: one row is gold - this is the equator, and the second row is colored. During weaving, you should constantly apply the fishing line to the ball and orient yourself along the intended lines, that is, blue beads are water, and pink beads are land.
- Sew the belt into a ring, apply glue to the edge of the box (the middle of the ball) and put on the beaded belt, then wait 15 minutes for the belt to stick well.
- Weave the next row in the same way: string blue beads in place of water, and pink beads in place of sushi, do not forget to constantly apply to the ball and try on the continental lines. Only after careful fitting should you glue the fishing line with beads to the ball. It is worth noting that it is necessary to give each row time to dry so that the rows do not move and the work does not deteriorate.
- Braid the entire northern hemisphere, then the southern.
- Braid the stand with golden beads, just leave a small gap unbraided for the future hole.
- Prepare a piece of thick but flexible semi-circular wire and tap the end with a hammer to flatten it.
- Drill a hole in the base and glue the flattened end in, then leave to dry.
- Paint the inside of the box pink and wait until dry.
- Mix acrylic varnish with glitter, cover the globe and leave to dry.
- Weave a square rope of golden beads the length of the wire tail, cover the wire with it, and cut off the excess end of the wire.
- Glue the golden bead so that the end of the wire is not visible.

How to make a solar system with your own hands: master class with photos
What you need to prepare for the craft:
- corrugated cardboard
- scissors and stationery knife
- decorative tape
- PVA glue
- needles and carnations
Additionally, you will need paints. To make the planets look more realistic, print the template on a color printer.
STEP 1. Cut out 9 circles of different diameters from cardboard and color each of them. Use rich colors that are associated with space - black, dark blue, purple.
STEP 2. Once the paint has dried, place the circles on top of each other and staple in the center. We used part of a sushi stick; A toothpick or any other rod is also suitable for this.
STEP 3. Cut out stars from decorative tape or colored paper and stick them on the base. Experiment with sizes and shapes!
STEP 4. Cut out the printed images of the planets and glue them onto cardboard circles of the appropriate size.
STEP 5. Secure them to the base using nails. The hat is stuck into the base of the circle, and the planet is placed on the needle. Glue the rings of Saturn onto thin cardboard and connect them to their owner with needles.
You can add more variety and interesting moments to your children’s daily routine if you learn a new activity. To do this, you just need to captivate the baby. One of the educational and very original activities is making crafts with your own hands.

- Part 2. Tools and materials. It is better to give them in a bulleted list in the text. If necessary, you can add several sentences for each item to the list. If there are materials that require additional detailed description and some recommendations, then it is better to put this in a separate paragraph after the list.
- Part 3 – step-by-step description.
- Part 4 – tips and tricks.
- Part 5 – contacts. The last point is to indicate your coordinates where you can be contacted.
Cooking the paste
Before you make a globe from paper with your own hands, you need to prepare a binding solution - a paste. Pour four glasses of water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, in another container, mix the flour with the remaining liquid. As soon as the water boils, gradually add the resulting mixture into it, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat to low and cook for a couple more minutes. Don't stop stirring otherwise it will burn. The finished paste can be placed in a cool place so that it cools faster.

Design options
The ideal decoration option would be bright, vintage flowers, which almost every woman likes. But you can use your imagination and come up with your own flowers in neutral or pastel colors. Such a ball will look tender and cute.
For decoration, it is better to use acrylic paint, ideal for home decor. It applies like a cream, is perfect for wood and plastic, and has no strong odor.
————————————————-
It is known that a model of the globe was first built by the custodian of the Pergamon Library, Crates of Malossus, in the 2nd century. BC, but, unfortunately, it has not survived.
The first earthly globe that has come down to us was made in 1492 by the German geographer and traveler Martin Beheim (1459-1507). Beheim placed on his model, which was called the “earth apple,” the world map of the ancient Greek scientist Ptolemy. Naturally, this globe was missing a lot of objects.
"Earth Apple" by Boeheim
Later, globes became very popular. They could be seen in the chambers of monarchs, in the offices of ministers, scientists and merchants. Pocket globes in special cases were intended for travel. Medium-sized globes made for offices were often equipped with a mechanism that set them in motion, rotating them around an axis.
In the past, globes were installed on ships, but now on spacecraft.
Some globes exceed human height, and they contain not only colorful maps of the surface of the Earth or sky, but also information about different countries, plants and animals, and the hills are made convex.

Quote from Melissa
Read in full In your quotation book or community! Coffee globe - ideas and master classes Another interesting idea for decorating with coffee beans. Such an original coffee globe can serve as an excellent gift for September 1st. Study master classes and get inspired by ideas!
The easiest way is to purchase a real globe and decorate it with ground coffee, coffee beans and twine.
Well, for those who are not looking for easy ways, I suggest using one of the two master classes presented below.
The first master class from the craftswoman merinka-Mary
Link - https://stranamasterov.ru/node/342013
We will make a coffee globe like this.
We take a plastic ball and pierce it on both sides with wooden skewers.
We wrap both ends with twine, so the ball is already fixed on the “axis”.
We glue the ball with coffee beans and glue the “meridians” from twine.
We form the future frame for our globe from wire.
Wrap the wire with twine. We make a stand, for this you can use a reel of tape: we wrap it with twine, pour plaster inside and install a rod for the globe.
Well, it's ready, all that remains is to decorate the stand.
And the second master class from Asya S
Link - https://stranamasterov.ru/node/422684
First of all, we make stands for our globes. For this you can use these bowls. Before pouring the plaster, line the bottom with cling film
After about half an hour, you can turn it over and shake it out. Remove the film and leave to dry for a day.
While the bases are drying, make the globes. To do this, we use plastic balls for dry pools and wooden skewers for barbecue.
We make 2 different globes. We paint one with acrylic paint and simply cover it with coffee beans, and wrap the second with twine.
