A is for Apple!

CRAFTS

Kids LOVE to do apple stamping!  I've done a lot of it with preschool kids in the past, but I think it's so cute how Busy Bee Kids Crafts incorporated a tree and leaves.


Look at this cute apple core from the blog Crunchy & Green


BOOKS
Click here for a fun felt story board idea that incorporates simple math.


Click the video to hear "Ten Apples up on Top" being read by some adorable sounding children with an English accent.

"Apples, Apples, Apples" is such a cute book and I love the bonuses the author included at the end!
On a day perfect for apple picking, the bunny family heads to Long Hill Orchard. Mr. Miller takes them to the trees on his wobbly farm wagon and tells them all sorts of fun facts about fall's favorite fruit. Nancy Elizabeth Wallace has painstakingly glued in place simple cut-paper shapes to give her illustrations their bold colors and three-dimensional quality. Her story includes a recipe, an apple-print project, apple sayings, and an apple song for parents and children to share.


SNACK
