Handprint Apple Tree

by

Fall is coming! This simple craft combines the sweetness of a handprint with the fun of apple printing for your child. 

Materials needed: 

Step one:  Trace your child's arm and hand on the brown paper to create your trunk and branches. 

Step two: Cut out the tree and glue onto your white paper. 

Step three: Cut the apple in half (great time to talk about the parts of an apple!). 

Step four: Use the apple to create prints around the branches. 

Step five: If using more than one color, let the first color dry before adding a second one. 

Step six: Hang in a special place to admire and decorate your home for fall!
